Abstract
Previous systematic literature reviews of rotavirus genotype circulation in Europe and the Middle East are limited because they do not include country-specific prevalence data. This study documents country-specific evidence on the prevalence of rotavirus genotypes in Europe and the Middle East to enable more precise epidemiological modeling and contribute to the evidence-base about circulating rotavirus genotypes in the post-vaccination era. This study systematically searched PubMed, Embase and Scopus for all empirical epidemiological studies that presented genotype-specific surveillance data for countries in Europe and the Middle East published between 2006 and 2021. The STROBE checklist was used to assess the quality of included studies. Proportional meta-analysis was conducted using the generic inverse variance method with arcsine transformation and generalized linear-mixed models to summarize genotype prevalence. Our analysis estimated the genotype prevalence by country across three date categories corresponding with rotavirus seasons: 2006-2010, 2011-2015, 2016-2021. A total of 7601 deduplicated papers were identified of which 88 studies were included in the final review. Rotavirus genotypes exhibited significant variability across regions and time periods, with G1P[8], G2P[4], G3P[8], G4P[8], G9P[8], and, to a lesser extent G12P[8], being the most prevalent genotypes through different regions and time-periods. Uncommon genotypes included G3P[9] in Poland, G2P[6] in Iraq, G4P[4] in Qatar, and G9P[4] as reported by the European Rotavirus Network. There was high genotype diversity with routinely identified genotypes being G1P[8], G2P[4], G3P[8], G4P[8], and G9P[8]; there was high variability across time periods and regions. Continued surveillance at the national and regional levels is relevant to support further research and inform public health decision-making.

Vaccine research and development is extending its reach beyond the prevention of bacterial or viral diseases. There are experimental vaccines for immunotherapeutic purposes and for applications outside of infectious diseases, in diverse fields such as cancer, autoimmunity, allergy, Alzheimer’s and addiction. Many of these vaccines and immunotherapeutics should become available in the next two decades, with consequent benefit for human health. Continued advancement in this field will benefit from a forum that can (A) help to promote interest by keeping investigators updated, and (B) enable an exchange of ideas regarding the latest progress in the many topics pertaining to vaccines and immunotherapeutics.
Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics provides such a forum. It is published monthly in a format that is accessible to a wide international audience in the academic, industrial and public sectors.
