Article Synopsis
- - A clinical trial examined the effects of four different mouthwashes on the salivary viral load of SARS-CoV-2 in COVID-19 patients, assessing both viral presence and infectivity.
- - The study found that none of the mouthwashes significantly impacted the viral load; however, one ingredient, cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), showed a temporary reduction in viral infectivity one hour after use.
- - Results suggest that many mouthwashes may be ineffective at reducing viral transmission immediately, leading to a false sense of security among users.
Background: An epidemiological study of Streptococcus pneumoniae nasopharyngeal carriage in healthy children was carried out five years after the introduction of the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13).
Objectives: Study the impact of pediatric vaccination with PCV13, and other associated epidemiological factors on the status of nasopharyngeal carriage, the circulating pneumococcal serotypes, and the antibiotic susceptibility to more frequently used antibiotics.
Methods: A multi-center study was carried out in Primary Health Care, which included 1821 healthy children aged 1 to 4 years old.
