Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) is an immunosuppressive drug widely used by solid organ transplant recipients. Although it is known that MMF suppresses immune responses, its exact effects on specific vaccinations have not been investigated yet. Mucosal vaccinations are increasingly used, such as a cholera vaccination consisting of two oral immunizations ...

Rotavirus vaccines: an overview [PDF]
Rotavirus vaccine development has focused on the delivery of live attenuated rotavirus strains by the oral route. The initial "Jennerian" approach involving bovine (RIT4237, WC3) or rhesus (RRV) rotavirus vaccine candidates showed that these vaccines were safe, well tolerated, and immunogenic but induced highly variable rates of protection against ...

Trends in hospitalizations for vaccine‐preventable diseases in the United States from 2014 to 2024
Abstract Background and Objectives Vaccination rates have declined in recent years, resulting in outbreaks of vaccine‐preventable diseases (VPDs) among children. We aimed to evaluate VPD hospitalization rates from 2014 to 2024 and to report associated trends in outcomes including intensive care utilization, mortality, readmissions, and costs.

Clinical progress note: Rotavirus
Abstract Rotavirus is a vaccine‐preventable cause of acute, viral gastroenteritis typically characterized by diarrhea, vomiting, and fever. Prior to rotavirus vaccine introduction, nearly all children worldwide had been infected by 5 years of age. Severe rotavirus gastroenteritis causes dehydration and electrolyte derangements, and infants and young ...
