Background and Aims
Healthcare workers (HCW) have an increased risk of exposure to infectious diseases and are a potential source of infections for their patients. The Lao People’s Democratic Republic (Lao PDR) has no national policy regarding HCW vaccinations and routine vaccination coverage is low within the general population. This cross-sectional serostudy determines the level of exposure and risk of infection in Lao HCW against 6 vaccine preventable diseases and hepatitis C.Methods
1128 HCW were recruited from 3 central, 2 provincial and 8 district hospitals. Sera were tested by ELISA for the presence of antibodies and antigens to hepatitis B, hepatitis C, measles, rubella, varicella zoster, tetanus and diphtheria.Results
Only 53.1% of the HCW had protective anti-hepatitis B surface antigen antibodies (anti-HBs) with 48.8% having anti-hepatitis B core antibodies (anti-HBc), indicating previous exposure and 8.0% were hepatitis B surface antigen carriers. 3.9% were hepatitis C seropositive. Measles and rubella antibodies were detected in 95.4% and 86.2% of the HCW, with 11.9% of females being unprotected against rubella. Antibodies against varicella zoster, tetanus and diphtheria were detected in 95%, 78.8% and 55.3%, respectively. Seroprevalence varied according to age, gender and number of children.Conclusion
An unacceptably high proportion of Lao HCW remain susceptible to infection with hepatitis B, diphtheria, tetanus and rubella. Furthermore, a high number of healthcare workers are chronically infected with hepatitis B and C viruses. These data emphasize the need for a robust HCW vaccination policy in addition to increased awareness within this subpopulation. 相似文献2.

National immunization programs carried out in the CSR are here confronted with the EPI regional targets for Europe, a component of the WHO global program "Health for all by the year 2000". The EPI target diseases to be brought under control in Europe by 1990 include measles, poliomyelitis, diphtheria and neonatal tetanus; control of congenital rubella infection is to be achieved by the year 2000. The presented data show that Czechoslovakia has succeeded in implementing this program much ahead of the WHO time schedule. The elimination of measles infection was achieved in 1982, poliomyelitis was brought under control in 1961, and the effective diphtheria control has been in effect since the mid-1960s. Cases of neonatal tetanus are absent in the CSR since 1965, the annual incidence of postnatal tetanus is permanently 0.1-0.2 per 100,000 population. The goal of achieving the rubella-free status and thus the elimination of congenital rubella cases at country level is expected to be reached in the early 1990s. Implementation of the remaining WHO recommendations pertinent to infections other than EPI target diseases appears also satisfactory. Regular immunization against whooping cough, one of the oldest immunization programs in Czechoslovakia, succeeded in effectively eliminating this infection in the early 1970s. Selective immunization campaigns against influenza infection, introduced many years ago, help protect, together with a large-scale use of available chemoprophylactics, some 200,000 individuals every year in CSR. The hepatitis B immunization program was started in 1983 and is primarily limited to health service staff, which is in line with the existing WHO recommendations. Inception of the regular immunization program against mumps is planned for the beginning of 1987. 相似文献

The results of the retrospective analysis of data on vaccination coverage in the preschool-aged and school-aged Roma children (436 preschool and 551 schoolchildren) in three geographical regions of Slovenia were analyzed to establish the differences concerning coverage for specific vaccinations: poliomyelitis, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, measles, mumps and rubella between the two generation. The data were obtained from health records, immunization records (Vaccination booklet) and National Computerized Immunization System (CEPI 2000). Vaccination coverage was calculated by comparing the number of children eligible for immunization with the number of vaccinated children. This article performs the log-rank statistical test, also known as the Mantel-Haenszel test. Log rang test is comparing survival curves for two generations. Preschool-aged Roma children showed higher vaccination coverage than the school-aged Roma generation. There was no significance difference in the generations of preschool aged and school aged Roma children fully vaccinated against poliomyelitis, diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis. Rubella vaccination was significantly lower in the school aged Roma generation. Only 33% of school aged Roma population received two doses of measles, mumps and rubella vaccine. Vaccination coverage of preschool Roma children in Slovenia against poliomyelitis, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis and MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) were significantly lower then the national vaccination coverage for preschool aged Slovenia children. Many joint efforts will have to be made to improve the vaccination coverage in Roma communities. 相似文献

Vaccines have eliminated or substantially reduced the incidence in Canada of smallpox, poliomyelitis, measles, mumps, rubella, diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis. The Canadian Medical Association (CMA) advocates a single immunization schedule, complete for all age groups and diseases where immunization is indicated and available. CMA has endorsed in principle (1984), the second edition of the Guide to Immunization for Canadians compiled by the National Advisory Committee on Immunization and requested that it be disseminated to all practising physicians in Canada. CMA also firmly endorses the concept of a readily accessible nationwide method of recording immunization status. In keeping with the World Health Organization''s commitment to global control of measles, CMA (1981) supports and encourages mandatory vaccination against measles for children. The association advocates a much more aggressive and sustained public education program to promote public awareness and acceptance of immunization. 相似文献

In a previous study, using BALB/c mice, we found that while diphtheria (D), tetanus (T) and whooping cough (Pw, whole-cell Bordetella pertussis) immunization induces a Th1/Th2 tetanus response and memory T cells able to proliferate in response to in vitro stimulation with B. pertussis, DTPa immunization induces a Th2 tetanus immune response and no memory T cells that recognize B. pertussis as stimulus. Considering that a pro-inflammatory cytokine production is not necessary for protection against tetanus and therefore should be avoided, an alternative DTP immunization schedule with minimal Pw exposure was assessed in order to obtain a Th2 tetanus response and a Th1 pertussis response. BALB/c mice were primed with DT vaccine at day 0, with Pw vaccine at day 14 and boosted with DTPa vaccine at days 21 and 28. A control group was inoculated with saline. Antibodies against B. pertussis surface antigens, tetanus and diphtheria toxoids were produced by mice. Spleen cells stimulated in vitro with B. pertussis produced IL-6 and IFNgamma. Only IL-5 was produced by cells in response to tetanus toxoid stimulation. These results are in line with the low IgG1/IgG2a ratio for pertussis antibodies compared with those corresponding to tetanus and diphtheria. The immunization protocol presented herein succeeded in producing tetanus and pertussis immune responses of Th2 and Th1 type, respectively. In contrast to previous results obtained with DTPw immunization, no IL-12 production was observed. Our findings provide direct evidence that an immunization protocol with an interval of 14 days between DT and Pw primings, followed by DTPa boosters, can induce appropriate immune responses against DTP vaccine antigens. 相似文献

Combined vaccine "Bubo-Kok" is characterized by safety and high immunological activity. The number of postvaccinal reactions in children aged 1 and 2 years, immunized with vaccine "Bubo-Kok", was not statistically different from those in groups of children immunized with adsorbed DPT vaccine, as well with such vaccine in combination with vaccine against hepatitis B. After the completion of the primary course of immunization 100% of children had protective antibody titers against diphtheria, tetanus and hepatitis B. Antibody titers against pertussis, equal to or exceeding protective titers, were found in more than 70% of immunized children. The immunogenic potency of vaccine "Bubo-Kok" with respect to all its components was not inferior to that of adsorbed DPT vaccine and vaccine against hepatitis B, when introduced simultaneously in different areas of the body. Vaccine "Bubo-Kok" successfully passed state trials and was recommended for registration. 相似文献

Adsorbed DPT vaccine and adsorbed DT toxoids with normal and reduced antigen content were used for the immunization of rabbits. The levels of IgM and IgG and the dynamics of antibodies to diphtheria and tetanus toxins and to Bordetella pertussis in the blood sera of the animals were studied in the postvaccinal period (on days 15 and 34). This study revealed that the reduction of the antigen content of adsorbed DT toxoid to 5 Lf of diphtheria toxoid and 5 binding units of tetanus toxoid did not decrease the capacity of the preparation for increasing the levels of IgG and IgM, antibodies to diphtheria and tetanus toxins in the sera of the rabbits. The reduced content of these toxoids in adsorbed DPT vaccine did not affect its capacity for inducing the enhanced synthesis of IgG, antibodies to diphtheria and tetanus toxins, while the production of IgM and IgA remained unchanged. At the same time an increase in the titers of antibodies to B. pertussis in the animals was less pronounced than that observed after the injection of commercial adsorbed DPT vaccine. Additional investigations are necessary in order to establish the protective potency of the pertussis component in adsorbed DPT vaccine with the reduced content of toxoids and to find out the optimum antigenic composition for this preparation. 相似文献

Three bacterial toxoids, CRM 197 (mutagenized diphtheria toxin), tetanus toxoid (formaldehyde-treated tetanus toxin), and PT-9K/129G (double mutant of pertussin toxin) were encapsulated within red blood cells (RBCs) of B6D2F1 and Balb/C mice according to a mild procedure based on hypotonic dialysis-isotonic resealing that yielded undamaged RBCs. The toxoid-loaded RBCs were injected intravenously in order to immunize animals and their effects were compared to those of identical amounts (30-95 micrograms per mouse subdivided into multiple injections) of the corresponding free toxoids injected intravenously in saline. Sera from treated mice were collected and tested for titers of specific antibodies against each of the three antigens and also for titers of neutralizing antibodies, i.e., affording protection from toxic effects induced by the corresponding native toxins. In all experiments, significant seroconversion was observed with both immunization systems. Titers of both specific and neutralizing antibodies against CRM 197 and tetanus toxoid were several-fold higher upon immunization with the RBC-encapsulated toxoids, than with the free toxoids. These differences were not due to qualitatively different recognition patterns of antigenic determinants by the two types of sera. Conversely, intravenous immunization with pertussis toxoid either as RBC-encapsulated or as free antigen elicited a comparably high production of specific and of neutralizing antibodies. These data demonstrate that properly engineered RBCs behave as natural carriers and possibly adjuvants for antigens of vaccinal interest. 相似文献

The study revealed that the immunization of children with adsorbed DPT vaccine from the age of 3-4 months, as compared with the immunization of children from the age of 5-6 months, did not lead to an essential increase in the coverage of children with immunization at the period under study (1970-1983) and did not affect the total level of pertussis morbidity, as well as the proportion of children aged up to 1 year in the total number of pertussis cases. Children immunized at an early age produced antibodies in titers, equivalent to the titers in older children, but their immunity against pertussis, in contrast to their immunity against diphtheria and tetanus, was retained for a shorter period. The injection of adsorbed DPT vaccine at the age of 3-4 months was accompanied by a poorly pronounced increase in the content of IgG, the predominant synthesis of IgM and the suppression of the synthesis of IgA. The shift of the start of vaccination to the age of 3-4 months has probably some immunological grounds for diphtheria and tetanus, but it is premature with respect to pertussis. 相似文献

The level and intensity of antitoxic immunity to diphtheria and tetanus in children and adolescents were determined. The presence of tetanus antitoxin in titers exceeding the protective level in 96.3-98.5% of the examined children and adolescents is indicative of a high actual coverage by immunization. Protective titers against diphtheria were lower. There was no essential difference in the levels of protection in children immunized according to the vaccination schedule and in those immunized with some deviations from this schedule. A considerable part of newborns and children aged 3 months had antibodies to diphtheria and tetanus antitoxins. After the third booster immunization changes in antidiphtheria immunity characteristics occurred only in 2.5% of the vaccines and no changes in antitetanus immunity characteristics were observed. 相似文献

An extended controlled epidemiological trial was carried out for the purpose of studying the reactogenic properties, immunological and epidemiological efficacy of immunization against whooping cough, diphtheria and tetanus according to a scheme suggested by the authors (AKdeltaC-AKdeltaC-KB) in comparison with the official scheme (AKdeltaC-AKdeltaC-AKdeltaC). There was revealed some increase in the frequency of general reactions in children vaccinated by the experimental scheme; however strong general reactions and local reactions of different intensity were encountered with equal frequency in both groups. Two months after the end of the vaccination significantly higher titres of pertussis agglutinins were revealed in children immunized by the AKdeltaC-AKdeltaC-KB scheme; no significant difference was found in the content of the protective titres of diphtheria and tetanus antitoxins. The duration of preservation of postvaccinal antibodies against all the AKdeltaC-vaccine components and increase in their amount after the first revaccination (in 1.5-2 years) was the same in both the groups of children. A greater epidemiological efficacy of pertussis antigen was revealed by prolonged observation in immunization by the AKdeltaC-AKdeltaC-KB sheme in comparison with immunization by the official scheme (pertussis incidence per 100 thousand children proved to be 12.7 and 71.2, respectively). 相似文献

The array biosensor provides the capability for simultaneously measuring titers of antibody against multiple antigens. Human antibodies against four different targets, tetanus toxin, diphtheria toxin, staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) and hepatitis B, were measured simultaneously in sera from eight different donors in a single assay and titers were determined. The assays could measure amounts of bound antibody as low as approximately 100 fg. Each individual serum exhibited a different pattern of reactivity against the four target antigens. Applications of this biosensor capability include monitoring for exposure to pathogens and for efficacy of vaccination. 相似文献

Demographic changes and a more active life-style in older age have contributed to an increasing public awareness of the need for lifelong vaccination. Currently many older persons have been vaccinated against selected pathogens during childhood but lack regular booster immunizations. The impact of regular vaccinations when started late in life was analyzed in an open, explorative trial by evaluating the immune response against tetanus and diphtheria in healthy older individuals. 252 persons aged above 60 years received a booster vaccination against tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis and polio and a subcohort (n=87) was recruited to receive a second booster vaccination against tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis 5 years later. The percentage of unprotected individuals at the time of enrollment differed substantially for tetanus (12%) and diphtheria (65%). Despite protective antibody concentrations 4 weeks after the first vaccination in almost all vaccinees, antibodies had again dropped below protective levels in 10% (tetanus) and 45% (diphtheria) of the cohort after 5 years. Protection was restored in almost all vaccinees after the second vaccination. No correlation between tetanus- and diphtheria-specific responses was observed, and antibody concentrations were not associated with age-related changes in the T cell repertoire, inflammatory parameters, or CMV-seropositivity suggesting that there was no general biological “non-responder type.” Post-vaccination antibody concentrations depended on pre-existing plasma cells and B cell memory as indicated by a strong positive relationship between post-vaccination antibodies and pre-vaccination antibodies as well as antibody-secreting cells. In contrast, antigen-specific T cell responses were not or only weakly associated with antibody concentrations. In conclusion, our findings demonstrate that single shot vaccinations against tetanus and/or diphtheria do not lead to long-lasting immunity in many elderly persons despite administration at relatively short intervals. Sufficient antigen-specific B cell memory B generated by adequate priming and consecutive booster vaccinations and/or exposure is a prerequisite for long-term protection.

Enterovirus 71 (EV71) commonly occurs in children, causing hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in about 29% of patients. Studies have suggested that patients develop meningitis and encephalopathy with a mortality rate of 4–26%. EV71 subgenotypes including B4, B5, C2, C4 and C5 have caused HFMD epidemics in Taiwan. In terms of therapeutical strategy, intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) has been shown to improve patient conditions. In this study, the EV71 neutralizing titer was evaluated in 75 human plasmas and 8 lots of Taiwanese plasma derived IVIG. Results showed that human plasmas and IVIG significantly neutralized B4 and C2 subgenotypes. Four percent of human plasma contained neutralizing antibody titer of 1:128 against B4 and C2. Most IVIG lots possessed a median effective dose of over 100 against B4 and C2. IVIG lots had an average neutralizing capacity of 5.60, 0.90, 4.30, 1.12 and 0.77 log10 CCID50/ml against B4, B5, C2, C4 and C5, respectively. In conclusion, effective neutralization of B4 and C2 could be due to their earlier appearance in the EV71 epidemiology timeline of Taiwan. IVIG derived from Taiwanese plasma may be desirable for treatment of patients infected with EV71 of specific subgenotypes. 相似文献

The retrospective evaluation of the intensity of postvaccinal immunity at different periods after the primary course of immunization against diphtheria and tetanus was made. In the sera taken from 130 children with systemic connective tissue diseases the content of antibodies to diphtheria and tetanus was determined. As revealed in this study, the protective levels of antibodies to diphtheria and tetanus toxoids were retained by both sick and healthy children for 5 years and longer. Significantly lower titers of antibodies to diphtheria and tetanus toxoids were registered in children undergoing therapy with glucocorticosteroids and cytostatics at the time of the study. 相似文献
