Clonal expansion within pneumococcal serotype 6C after use of seven-valent vaccine [PDF]

, 2013
Streptococcus pneumoniae causes invasive infections, primarily at the extremes of life. A seven-valent conjugate vaccine (PCV7) is used to protect against invasive pneumococcal disease in children.

Impact of preceding flu-like illness on the serotype distribution of pneumococcal pneumonia.

PLoS ONE, 2014
BackgroundEven though the pathogenicity and invasiveness of pneumococcus largely depend on capsular types, the impact of serotypes on post-viral pneumococcal pneumonia is unknown.Methods and findingsThis study was performed to evaluate the impact of ...

The Biology of Pneumococcal Infection [PDF]

Pediatric Research, 1997
For 100 y, the study of the molecular mechanism of pneumococcal infection has richly rewarded biomedical science and pediatrics. More recently, a framework has emerged for how the pathogen engineers colonization, invasion of the lung and bloodstream, and finally, entry into the brain.

Estimating the transmission parameters of pneumococcal carriage in households [PDF]

, 2004
This paper analyses Streptococcus pneumoniae transmission dynamics in households using longitudinal data on pneumococcal (Pnc) carriage in the United Kingdom. Ten consecutive swabs were taken at 4-week intervals from all members of 121 households.

Continued control of pneumococcal disease in the UK - the impact of vaccination

, 2011
Streptococcus pneumoniae, also known as the pneumococcus, is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in the developed and developing world. Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines were first introduced for routine use in the USA in 2000, although the seven-
