Trends in hospitalizations for vaccine‐preventable diseases in the United States from 2014 to 2024

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Vaccination rates have declined in recent years, resulting in outbreaks of vaccine‐preventable diseases (VPDs) among children. We aimed to evaluate VPD hospitalization rates from 2014 to 2024 and to report associated trends in outcomes including intensive care utilization, mortality, readmissions, and costs.

Activation of the beta interferon promoter by paramyxoviruses in the absence of virus protein synthesis [PDF]

, 2012
Conflicting reports exist regarding the requirement for virus replication in interferon (IFN) induction by paramyxoviruses. Our previous work has demonstrated that pathogen-associated molecular patterns capable of activating the IFN-induction cascade are
