The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2014 Background: In 1994, Uruguay included Haemophilus influenzae b (Hib) conjugated vaccine in a 3 + 1 schedule. In March 2008, 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCV7) was included in a 2 +1 schedule. In 2010, 13-valent PCV replaced PCV7.

The Significance of Subperiosteal Abscess Volume in Acute Mastoiditis
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Both needle aspiration and I&D are safe methods to reduce the infective and inflammatory load of subperiosteal abscess due to acute mastoiditis and provide pus for culture. Higher volumes (~3 cm3 and more) should be managed initially with cortical mastoidectomy since the risk of no improvement following needle aspiration or I&D is higher.

Reduction in respiratory mortality not associated with influenza in Russia: effect of the introduction of pneumococcal vaccination (PCV13), or improvement in care? [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Background. Pneumococcal vaccination (PCV13) for children (as well as older adults) in Russia was introduced in 2014, with no prior PCV7 use. While pneumonia hospitalization rates, both in children and adults did not decrease in the following years, respiratory mortality rates did decline with time.

Efficacy and effectiveness of extended-valency pneumococcal conjugate vaccines [PDF]
Korean Journal of Pediatrics, 2014 The 7-valent pneumococcal protein conjugate vaccine (PCV7) has been shown to be highly efficacious against invasive pneumococcal diseases and effective against pneumonia and in reducing otitis media. The introduction of PCV7 has resulted in major changes

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This study uses a large multinational database to examine long‐term outcomes of adult temporal bone fractures. The risk for meningitis, labyrinthitis, facial nerve disorders, and cerebrospinal fluid leaks was elevated after fracture. Cochlear implantation was also more likely after temporal bone fracture.

The alternative fact of probable vaccine damage A typology of vaccination beliefs in 28 European countries [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Background: Despite lacking scientific support, vaccine hesitancy is widespread. While vaccine damage as a scientific fact is statistically highly uncommon, emerging social and technological forces have converted probable vaccine damage into an alternative fact.
