Objective To investigate safety of influenza A H1N1 vaccine vaccinations. Methods A total of 3 300 medical workers were vaccinated by batch of 200909012 influenza A H1N1 vaccine produced by Shanghai Biological Products Corporation Limited according to the principle of voluntary and concentration. The adverse reactions were observed within half an hour, three days and a week after vaccinations, respectively. Results The inoculators with local or systemic reaction reached 1.18% (39/3 300). There were 0.15% (5/3 300) of the inoculators with adverse reaction within half an hour; 0.70% (23/3 300) within 1 to 3 days after vaccination; and 0.33% (11/3 300) within 3 days to 1 week after vaccination. No severe adverse events were found. Conclusion Influenza A H1N1 vaccine vaccinations is an economic and effective way of influenza A H1N1 prevention with mild reactions.
Objective To evaluate on immunogenicity and safety of measles-mumps-rubella-varicella vaccine. Methods The PubMed, BIOSIS Previews, CDSR, The Cochrane Library, CBM, CNKI and VIP were searched between Jan. 1990 and April 2010. Studies were included in the review if they were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about measles (M) – mumps (M) – rubella (R) and varicella (V) vaccine. Trial screening, data exaction and quality assessment of the included trials were conducted by the method recommended by Cochrane Collaboration. Statistical analyses were conducted by using RevMan 4.2.10 software. Results Five RCTs were included. Among those there were 2 trials of B degree and 3 trials of C degree. Meta-analyses showed that to different inoculation methods, (MMRV or MMR+V) the rate of pain was not significantly different with RR 0.94 and 95%CI 0.83 to 1.05 (P=0.28). The rate of redness was not significantly different with RR 1.08 and 95%CI 0.90 to 1.29 (P=0.40). The rate of hardening was not significantly different with RR 1.16 and 95%CI 0.95 to 1.43 (P=0.14). The rate of fever was significantly different with RR 1.20 and 95%CI 1.12 to 1.29 (Plt;0.000 01). The rate of skin rash was not significantly different with RR 1.18 and 95%CI 1.00 to 1.41 (P=0.05). The serum measles antibody positive rate was not significantly different with RR 1.00 and 95%CI 0.99 to 1.01 (P=0.68). The serum mumps antibody positive rate was not significantly different with RR 0.99 and 95%CI 0.50 to 1.01 (P=0.11). The serum rubella antibody positive rate was not significantly different with RR 1.00 and 95%CI 0.99 to 1.01 (P=0.68). The se-rum varicella antibody positive rate was not significantly different with RR 1.00 and 95%CI 0.99 to 1.01 (P=0.58). Conclusion Compared with MMR+V vaccine, the MMRV vaccine has the same immune effect. In respect of immune safety, in addition to higher rate of fever after vaccination, other local or systemic reaction is good. For the role of reducing vaccination times and good performance on immune effect and safety, the MMRV vaccine can be regarded as candidate vaccine for children. The fever caused by the new component should be strengthened in the following study. Limited to the quality and account for the current original documents, citing evidence of this systematic review would be cautious. Future studies would expand the sample size, fulfill the test design, increase indicators to improve the quality of research and demonstration intensity.
Objective To evaluate the cost effectiveness of human papillomavirus vaccine (HPV) for treating cervical cancer. Methods We constructed a Markov model to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of HPV versus Chinese healthy women aged 18 to 25 for treating Cervical Cancer. We calculated the clinical benefits and cost-effectiveness and judged the results based on willing to pay. Sensitivity analysis was made for parameters like cost, discounting rate and vaccine efficacy. Results HPV vaccination was a cost-effective option under the local willing to pay value with the incremental cost utility ratio 43 489 per QALY gained. It proved that vaccination was an economic and effective solution. Conclusion Given the results of Markov model, the cost effectiveness of HPV vaccination of Chinese women aged 18 to 25 is positive. Considering the data sources and model hypothesis, this report has some limitations. Further studies are warranted.
;ObjectiveUsing human tumor necrosis factoralpha (TNFα) genetransduced human liver cancer cell BEL7404 as tumor vaccine, to study the effect of immune rejection to mice liver cancer implanted tumors. MethodsMice were divided into five groups, and were inoculated with TNFα genetransduced BEL7404 cells which irradiated with 60Co (BEL7404TNFCo group), TNFα genetransduced BEL7404 cells (BEL7404TNF group), BEL7404 cells (BEL7404 group), BEL7404 cell irradiated with 60Co (BEL7404Co group) respectively. Normal saline was injected in control group. Then mice liver cancer H22 cells were implanted to each group, the growth of mice liver cancer implanted tumors was observed. The apoptosis index of implanted tumors was detected by TUNEL method.ResultsCompared to BEL7404 group,BEL7404Co group and control group, the tumor vaccine which did not transduce with TNFα gene and the control group, the tumorigenesis rate of liver cancer implanted tumors was reduced, the growth of implanted tumors was inhibited and the apoptosis of implanted tumors was increased in BEL7404TNFCo group,P<0.01.There was no difference between BEL7404TNFCo group and BEL7404TNF group,Pgt;0.05. ConclusionHuman tumor necrosis factoralpha genetransduced human liver cancer cell can be used as tumor vaccine, it has quite b effect of immune rejection to mice liver cancer implanted tumors.
Objective To investigate the free influenza vaccination of health care workers in major departments and explore the possible influencing factors of influenza vaccination of staff. Methods In November 2021, a questionnaire survey was conducted among health care workers who received free influenza vaccination in 19 major departments of West China Hospital of Sichuan University, and the un-vaccinated workers’ information was obtained from the registration system of staff information. Multiple logistic regression model was used to analyze the possible influencing factors of free influenza vaccination. Results The coverage rate of centralized free influenza vaccination of staff in major departments was 32.7% (1101/3369). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that workers who were female [odds ratio (OR)=1.853, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.481, 2.318), P<0.001], with an educational background of high school or below [OR=4.304, 95%CI (2.484, 7.455), P<0.001], engaged in nursing work [OR=2.341, 95%CI (1.701, 3.221), P<0.001], and with 11 or more years of working experience [OR=2.410, 95%CI (1.657, 3.505), P<0.001] were more likely to inject influenza vaccine, and workers who had a bachelor’s degree were less likely to inject influenza vaccine. Conclusions The rate of free influenza vaccination among medical staff is low. In order to mobilize the enthusiasm of influenza vaccination among medical staff, it is necessary to analyze the characteristics of the population and take targeted measures to improve the level of vaccination among medical staff.
Vaccine-associated uveitis (VAU) usually refers to a rare adverse reaction that occurs after vaccination. The clinical manifestations of VAU are most often anterior with mild symptoms and responded promptly to topical corticosteroids. However, more severe forms of posterior and panuveitis may also occur, such as multiple evanescent white dot syndrome, Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome, and acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy. The pathogenesis of VAU is still unclear. Currently, it mainly includes vaccine Shoenfeld syndrome, type Ⅲ hypersensitivity reaction caused by immune complex deposition, direct infection with live attenuated vaccine, and molecular mimicry theory. VAU is self-limiting, and most patients heal without treatment. In the future, it is recommended to ask all patients with uveitis about their recent vaccination history in the clinic. For patients with inactivated vaccine or recombinant/subunit vaccination history, the possibility of developing Shoenfeld syndrome should be considered, and the history, signs and symptoms related to autoimmune diseases should be carefully looked for.
Objective To compare the clinical characteristics and treatment of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in the year of 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021. Methods A cross-sectional multicenter study was conducted on patients with stable COPD from 13 hospitals of China south area in year of 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021. The demographic data, pulmonary function, COPD assessment test (CAT), exacerbation in the past year and treatment regimens were collected. Results The CAT scores of the COPD patients in the year of 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021 were (16.5±6.7), (14.5±6.7), (14.1±6.2) and (13.4±6.6), respectively. The CAT scores decreased year by year (P<0.05). The forced expiratory volume in one second percentage predicted value (FEV1%pred) of the COPD patients in the year of 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021 were (52.8±21.4)%, (51.3±19.2)%, (53.4±21.5)% and (56.6±21.7)%, respectively. Compared with year of 2018, the patients in 2019, 2020 and 2021 had higher FEV1%pred. Compared with year of 2019 and 2020, the patients 2021 had higher FEV1%pred (P<0.05). The median of exacerbation in the past year of the COPD patients in the year of 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021 were 1, 1, 0 and 0, respectively. Compared with year of 2018 and 2019, the median of exacerbation in the past year in 2020 and 2021 were lower (P<0.05). The proportion of double [long-acting β2-agonist (LABA)+long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA)] and triple inhaled [LAMA+LABA+ inhaled corticosteroid (ICS)] drugs were 0%, 0.7%, 3.5% and 17.0%, as well as 47.9%, 41.2%, 27.8% and 26.0%. Compared with year of 2018 and 2019, the proportion of double inhaled drugs in 2020 and 2021 was higher, while triple inhaled drugs was lower (P<0.05). In addition, the proportion of influenza vaccine/pneumonia vaccine was 0%, 0.1%, 3.5% and 4.3%, respectively. Compared with year of 2018 and 2019, the proportion of influenza vaccine/pneumonia vaccine in year of 2020 and 2021 was higher (P<0.05). Conclusions Symptoms and exacerbation burden of patients with COPD tend to be less in China in recent years and the time of patients visited hospital tends to move forward. Furthermore, the proportion of patients with double inhaled drugs (LABA+LAMA) increased, while triple inhaled (LAMA+LABA+ICS) decreased. In addition, the proportion of patients vaccinated with influenza/pneumonia is increased but the overall proportion is still low.
The raging global epidemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) not only poses a major threat to public health, but also has a huge impact on the global health care system and social and economic development. Therefore, accelerating the development of vaccines and antibody drugs to provide people with effective protection and treatment measures has become the top priority of researchers and medical institutions in the field. At present, several vaccines and antibody drugs targeting SARS-Cov-2 have been in the stage of clinical research or approved for marketing around the world. In this manuscript, we summarized the vaccines and antibody drugs which apply genetic engineering technologies to target spike protein, including subunit vaccines, viral vector vaccines, DNA vaccines, mRNA vaccines, and several neutralizing antibody drugs, and discussed the trends of vaccines and antibody drugs in the future.
