Pertussis Disease and Antenatal Vaccine Effectiveness in Australian Children

Population-level studies of severe pertussis extending beyond infancy are sparse, and none in the context of antenatal vaccination. We compared hospitalized pertussis cases from birth to 15 years of age before and after introduction of antenatal immunization.

Status epilepticus outcomes among vaccinated and unvaccinated children: A population-based study

To determine the proportion of first status epilepticus cases that are vaccine-proximate and compare clinical outcomes to non-vaccine-proximate cases.

Pertussis immunisation in infancy and atopic outcomes: A protocol for a population-based cohort study using linked administrative data

The burden of IgE-mediated food allergy in Australian born children is reported to be among the highest globally. This illness shares risk factors and frequently coexists with asthma, one of the most common noncommunicable diseases of childhood.

Whole-cell pertussis vaccine in early infancy for the prevention of allergy in children

Atopic diseases are the most common chronic conditions of childhood. The apparent rise in food anaphylaxis in young children over the past three decades is of particular concern, owing to the lack of proven prevention strategies other than the timely introduction of peanut and egg.

Bridging the gaps in test interpretation of SARS-CoV-2 through Bayesian network modelling

In the absence of an established gold standard, an understanding of the testing cycle from individual exposure to test outcome report is required to guide the correct interpretation of SARS-CoV-2 reverse transcriptase real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) results and optimise the testing processes.

Assessment of on-time vaccination coverage in population subgroups: A record linkage cohort study

On-time coverage of the 2-4-6 month schedule is only 50-60% across specific population subgroups representing a significant avoidable public health risk

Systemic antibiotics for chronic suppurative otitis media

To assess the effects of systemic antibiotics for people with chronic suppurative otitis media.
