Measles Vaccination in Presence of Measles Antibody May Enhance Child Survival

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2020
Background: In trials of early two-dose measles vaccination (MV), with the first dose being given before 9 months of age, vaccination in the presence of maternal antibody reduced mortality 2- to 3-fold compared with MV in the presence of no measles ...

Early Investigations and Recent Advances in Intraperitoneal Immunotherapy for Peritoneal Metastasis. [PDF]

, 2018
Peritoneal metastasis (PM) is an advanced stage malignancy largely refractory to modern therapy. Intraperitoneal (IP) immunotherapy offers a novel approach for the control of regional disease of the peritoneal cavity by breaking immune tolerance.

Non-specific effects of rabies vaccine on the incidence of common infectious disease episodes: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

Trials, 2020
Background Vaccines may cause non-specific effects (NSEs) on morbidity and mortality through immune-mediated mechanisms that are not explained by the prevention of the targeted disease.

An update on environmental mastitis: challenging perceptions [PDF]

, 2017
Environmental mastitis is the most common and costly form of mastitis in modern dairy herds where contagious transmission of intramammary pathogens is controlled through implementation of standard mastitis prevention programmes.

Evaluation of non-specific effects of human rotavirus vaccination in medical risk infants

Vaccine, 2021
The WHO recommends research into non-specific effects of vaccination. For rotavirus vaccines, these have not yet been well established. We studied non-specific effects up to 18 months of age using data from a quasi-experimental before-after study comparing cohorts of rotavirus vaccinated and unvaccinated infants with medical risk conditions.Infants ...

Implications of the non-specific effect induced by Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine on vaccine recommendations

Jornal de Pediatria, 2023
Since the beginning of its use for the prevention of tuberculosis (TB) in 1921, other uses of BCG (Bacillus Calmette-Guérin) have been proposed, particularly in the treatment of malignant solid tumors, multiple sclerosis, and other autoimmune diseases.

Unravelling the nature of non-specific effects of vaccines—A challenge for innate immunologists [PDF]

Seminars in Immunology, 2016
Epidemiological observations have shown that vaccines can influence morbidity and mortality more than can be ascribed to target-disease immunity. A growing number of immunological studies have helped identify possible biological mechanisms to explain these so-called nonspecific effects (NSE) of vaccines, including heterologous T-cell reactivity and ...

Potential role of specific antibodies as important vaccine induced protective mechanism against Aeromonas salmonicida in rainbow trout. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Furunculosis caused by infection with Aeromonas salmonicida subsp. salmonicida has been a known threat to aquaculture for more than a century. Efficient prophylactic approaches against this disease are essential for continued growth of salmonid ...

Non‐specific effects of vaccination on child survival? A prospective study in Senegal [PDF]

Tropical Medicine & International Health, 2005
SummaryObjectives  Several studies have shown an association between vaccination and child mortality in developing countries. The present paper examines this issue using data from a Senegalese rural area which has been monitored from 1983 to the present.Methods  We analysed two birth cohorts, comprising 7796 and 3573 persons who had received either BCG

Implementation and assessment of vaccination programmes: the importance of vaccination sequence for overall health outcomes

Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2018
In addition to their effect on the target infections, accumulating evidence indicates that vaccines have non-specific effects. Live measles vaccine (MV) has beneficial NSEs reducing mortality by more than can be explained by preventing measles infection.
