Article Synopsis
- - The study found that the safety and reactogenicity of the 10-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PHiD-CV) and the 7-valent vaccine (7vCRM) were similar when given as a booster alongside other vaccines in toddlers from the Philippines and Poland.
- - Both vaccines were administered to toddlers who had previously received the same vaccines, indicating a consistent response in different populations.
- - After the PHiD-CV booster, there was a strong immune response to all 10 types of pneumococcal bacteria and protein D, suggesting that the initial vaccination effectively prepared the immune system.
Children aged 11 to <24 months received 2 intranasal doses of live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) or placebo, 35+/-7 days apart. Dose 1 was administered concomitantly with a combined measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine (Priorix). Seroresponses to measles and mumps were similar between groups.

All infants were vaccinated with Act-HIB (Sanofi Pasteur, France) in the left thigh at the same time. The vaccination schedule was 2, 3.

Material And Methods: During the period of 12 months, we have prospectively observed 482 children with croup syndrome admitted to 15 pediatric departments in Lower Silesia (south-west region of Poland). Data concerning epidemiology, clinical course and treatment were collected from uniform observation cards.
Unlabelled: Croup syndrome is an urgent and frequent reason for hospitalization of children.
Material And Methods: 632 children with croup syndrome (422 boys and 210 girls aged 2 months-17 years) admitted to 15 pediatric departments in Lower Silesia were prospectively observed for 12 months (from April 2001 to March 2002). We conducted prospective survey of clinical and laboratory data from all study centers.
Background: Currently, the majority of newborns in Poland are born to mothers who have been immunized against measles. The aim of this study was to compare the maternal measles antibody titers of infants born to mothers who had been infected by measles wild virus (group I) with those born to mothers who had been vaccinated (group II).
Material/methods: Serum samples were tested for measles antibodies from 79 infants in the 7th month of life and from 27 mothers between 17 and 41 years of age.
