HPV vaccine requirements for school entry are an underutilized strategy to increase HPV vaccine uptake among adolescents. The purpose of this study was to understand the factors that are predictive of parents' attitudes toward schools requiring the HPV vaccine for entry into middle school. Parents of adolescents ages 11-12 y were recruited to participate in an online survey via Qualtrics. Descriptive frequencies were obtained, and sequential regression analyses were conducted controlling for demographic characteristics. A total of 1,046 participants were included in the analysis. The mean age was 40.3 y (SD = 6.3) and the majority of participants were White (74.4%) and had some college education or higher (80.9%). Participant's gender, political affiliation, urban/rural setting, and education level were significantly associated with attitudes toward school entry requirements. Adding psychosocial items related to perceptions of benefits, risks, and social norms significantly increased the amount of variance explained in the model [(ΔR2 = .312, F(5, 1036) = 132.621)]. Perceived social norms was the strongest predictor of attitudes [β = 0.321]. The results of this study can be used to inform policy changes around school-entry requirements in the United States. Further studies are needed to assess the influence of perceived social norms in vaccine hesitant groups.","PeriodicalId":13058,"journal":{"name":"Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics","volume":"43 1","pages":"2390231"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142266665","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We aimed to explore the near-term predictive value of neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), absolute eosinophil count (AEC) for severe irAEs induced by PD-1 inhibitors. Data were collected from tumor patients treated with PD-1 inhibitors. NLR, PLR, and AEC data were obtained from both the previous and the current cycles of irAEs occurrence. A predictive model was developed using elastic net logistic regression Cutoff values were determined using Youden's Index. The predicted results were compared with actual data using Bayesian survival analysis. A total of 138 patients were included, of whom 47 experienced grade 1-2 irAEs and 18 experienced grade 3-5 irAEs. The predictive model identified optimal α and λ through 10-fold cross-validation. The Shapiro-Wilk test, Kruskal-Wallis test and logistic regression showed that only current cycle data were meaningful. The NLR was statistically significant in predicting irAEs in the previous cycle. Both NLR and AEC were significant predictors of irAEs in the current cycle. The model achieved an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.783, with a sensitivity of 77.8% and a specificity of 80.8%. A probability ≥ 0.1345 predicted severe irAEs. The model comprising NLR, AEC, and sex may predict the irAEs classification in the current cycle, offering a near-term predictive advantage over baseline models and potentially extending the duration of immunotherapy for patients.","PeriodicalId":13058,"journal":{"name":"Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics","volume":"96 1","pages":"2398309"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142266666","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

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.","PeriodicalId":13058,"journal":{"name":"Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics","volume":"10 1","pages":"2389606"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142200414","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
