Pneumococcal Serotype-Specific Antibodies in Children with Recurrent Oto-sinopulmonary Infections.
Low titers to pneumococcal vaccine are a frequent finding in pediatric patients with recurrent oto-sinopulmonary infections. To characterize the pre- and post-immunization antibody trend for each serotype included in the pneumococcal 13-valent conjugate vaccine (PCV13), in a cohort of pediatric patients with recurrent oto-sinopulmonary infections. This retrospective review identified 182 patients with recurrent oto-sinopulmonary infections (131 required an immune workup and 99 had low pneumococcal titers leading to a PCV13 vaccine booster). Baseline pneumococcal serotype-specific antibody titers at initial visit and 6 weeks after the vaccine booster were obtained. An adequate response to the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine was deemed to be a 4-fold increase over baseline and/or a post-immunization titer of 1.3 µg/ml or greater. Overall, PCV13 booster provided a significant improvement in the number of protective titers, increasing from 3.6 serotypes at baseline to 11.1 serotypes at 6 weeks (p < 0.001). This increase correlated with improved clinical outcomes (81% showed no signs of recurrent infection after the first booster and 94% after a second booster). Post-immunization antibody concentrations were significantly higher than at baseline for all serotypes (p< 0.05) and only 8, 9N, and 12F did not exhibit a greater than 4-fold increase (p> 0.05) 6 weeks following booster. There were no differences between patients at different ages in post-immunization titer levels for all serotypes. In pediatric patients with recurrent oto-sinopulmonary infections, an additional pneumococcal booster proved to be effective in the protection of these children against further infections, across all age groups.
期刊介绍:
Clinical & Experimental Immunology (established in 1966) is an authoritative international journal publishing high-quality research studies in translational and clinical immunology that have the potential to transform our understanding of the immunopathology of human disease and/or change clinical practice.
The journal is focused on translational and clinical immunology and is among the foremost journals in this field, attracting high-quality papers from across the world. Translation is viewed as a process of applying ideas, insights and discoveries generated through scientific studies to the treatment, prevention or diagnosis of human disease. Clinical immunology has evolved as a field to encompass the application of state-of-the-art technologies such as next-generation sequencing, metagenomics and high-dimensional phenotyping to understand mechanisms that govern the outcomes of clinical trials.
