ABSTRACT Aims Paediatric cancer survivors often experience treatment‐induced immunosuppression, requiring post‐treatment revaccination. However, immune recovery timelines vary, and current revaccination guidelines, largely based on data of varied quality derived from studies on acute‐lymphoblastic‐leukaemia (ALL), may not be applicable across all ...

Abstract Background Legionellosis causes more severe disease than other aetiologies of community‐acquired pneumonia (CAP). Early recognition and treatment of Legionella pneumonia reduce mortality. Urinary antigen testing (UAT) has facilitated rapid and reliable diagnosis of Legionella pneumonia. Aims The aims of this study were as follows: (i) identify
