西南土著儿童肺炎球菌携带者在流行后减少. 高价值疫苗,如PCV15和PCV20,覆盖了许多血清型,有可能减少这种脆弱人群的携带和疾病.
科学领域:
- 儿童传染病 儿童传染病
- 微生物学 微生物学
- 疫苗学 疫苗学 疫苗学
背景情况:
- 西南地区的土著儿童面临着高重的肺炎球菌疾病负担.
- 之前的研究显示,2015-2017年肺炎球菌携带率高 (49.5%).
- 流行病相关的变化和新疫苗可能影响了携带流行率和血清型分布.
研究的目的:
- 估计西南地区5岁以下儿童中肺炎球菌携带者的目前患病率.
- 为了确定该群体中Streptococcus pneumoniae的血清型分布.
主要方法:
- 一项横截面研究在2022-2023年招收了7-59个月的土著儿童.
- 使用培养和PCR进行分析,以检测Streptococcus pneumoniae.
- 使用培养分离物的全基因组测序进行了血清定型.
主要成果:
- 在67.9%的儿童中检测到肺炎球菌 (40.8%通过培养,67.5%通过PCR).
- 更高的患病率与家庭中6岁以下的儿童和喘相关.
- 按文化区分的运输普及率 (40.8%) 低于2015-2017年 (49.5%).
- 血清型检测显示了19.6%的PCV15型和39.2%的PCV20型血清型.
结论:
- 与流行前水平相比,肺炎球菌培养载体的流行率有所下降.
- 携带的血清型中很大一部分是由较新的,高价值的疫苗 (PCV15,PCV20) 覆盖的.
- 这些疫苗有望减少原住民儿童的肺炎球菌携带和疾病.
