Exploring the Relationship Between Respiratory Syncytial Virus and Asthma Using Calendar Time at Birth as a Source of Quasi‐Random Variation

open access: yesPaediatric and Perinatal Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Observational studies suggest an association between severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and asthma, but it is unclear if this relationship is causal or confounded. Objectives We investigated this relationship using calendar time at birth as a source of quasi‐random variation with respect to individual‐level risk factors for ...

Reactogenicity and Immunogenicity of RSV Vaccines in Immunocompromised Individuals With Hematological Malignancies

open access: yesTransplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
In adults with hematologic malignancies, RSV vaccination was safe and induced antibody and T‐cell responses. However, antibody levels were lower and declined more rapidly than in healthy controls. While early immune responses were evident, reduced magnitude and durability of protection suggest the need for optimized vaccination strategies in this high ...
