ObjectiveTo investigate the situation of internal antibody positive rate of Chinese who exposed to rabies virus and received full procedure of rabies vaccination, and to provide the basis for the adjustment of rabies vaccination procedure and policy. MethodsWe electronically searched databases including WanFang Data, VIP, CNKI, PubMed and EMbase from inception to May 2015 to collect studies about Chinese exposed to rabies virus and received full procedure rabies vaccination. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed the methodological quality of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed using R software (R3.2.1). ResultsA total of 33 studies were included. The combined antibody positive rate was 93.99% with 95%CI 92.02% to 95.70%. Antibody positive rate among male was 93.73% with 95%CI 91.65% to 95.54%, while among female was 94.33% with 95%CI 92.35% to 96.04%, and there was no significant difference between male and female (P>0.05). The antibody positive rate of hamster kidney cell rabies vaccine was 89.94% with 95%CI 86.09% to 95%, while the antibody positive rate of vero cell rabies vaccine was 96.65% with 95%CI 94.99% to 94.99%, and there was significant difference between both groups (P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in antibody positive rates among different years of rabies vaccine (P>0.05). However, the antibody positive rate of rabies vaccine had a tendency to reduce with the increasing age ConclusionAntibody positive rate of vero cell rabies vaccine is higher than that of hamster kidney cell rabies vaccine. Older people have lower antibody positive rate after receiving rabies vaccination. We suggest using vero cell rabies vaccine when giving rabies vaccination; elderly people should receive booster vaccination after basic vaccination.
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 investigate the vaccination rate of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine in patients undergoing cardiac mechanical valve replacement and to evaluate its effect on international normalized ratio (INR) value. MethodsWe investigated 132 patients who had received cardiac mechanical valve replacement and followed up in the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, West China Hospital of Sichuan University from May to October 2021. There were 51 males and 81 females aged 26-72 (53.01±9.51) years. ResultsThe vaccination coverage rate was 53.8%. Among the 61 unvaccinated patients, concerns about heart side-effects were the main reason. The average INR of the first review after vaccination was higher than that of the last review before vaccination, with a difference of 0.40±0.72 (P<0.001). ConclusionThe vaccination rate of patients after cardiac mechanical valve replacement is low. At the same time, COVID-19 vaccine may increase INR value, and it is suggested that patients should increase the frequency of review and adjust warfarin dosage after vaccination.
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.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness of mass vaccination campaign of hepatitis A vaccine (Hep A) and Measles-Mumps-Rubella live attenuated vaccine (MMR) vaccine in children in stricken regions of 4.20 Lushan earthquake in Sichuan province. MethodsAs the requirements of Sichuan Provincial Health Bureau, the mass campaign was implemented in Lushan county, Baoxing county and the victim settlement localities of other 6 counties during May 6th to 12th, 2013. Hep A and MMR were vaccinated, which targeted children aged from 18 months to 14 years and children aged from 8 months to 14 years, respectively. The vaccination rates were evaluated through reports and on-site rapid review of earthquake regions. ResultsAs of May 16th, 2013, 38 988 doses of Hepatitis A vaccine and 38 696 doses of MMR vaccine were vaccinated in 8 counties of Ya'an. Based on reports, the vaccination rates of Hep A and MMR vaccine of Ya'an were 99.01% and 98.87%, respectively. Based on reviews, vaccination rates of Hep A and MMR vaccine of Lushan and Baoxing were 97.40% and 97.06%, respectively. ConclusionMass vaccination campaign of Hep A and MMR in children in stricken regions of 4.20 Lushan earthquake in Sichuan province yields expected results. The mass campaign is wellorganized and implemented effectively, and the coverage matches the requirements. Timely decision, assistance from associated prefectures and the establishment of Childhood Immunization Information System play an important role in the campaign.
Objective To investigate the situation and related factors of influenza vaccination among healthcare workers in Sichuan, and provide a basis for the formulation of the strategy of influenza vaccination. Methods From August 1st to August 6th, 2022, healthcare workers from 21 prefectures and cities in Sichuan province were selected by the hospital infection quality control centers to conduct an online questionnaire survey for status and related factors of influenza vaccination. Single factor analysis of vaccination rate was carried out by χ2 test, and the related factors of influenza vaccination were analyzed by binary multiple logistic regression model. Results A total of 3264 copies of questionnaires were distributed, and 3244 valid copies were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 99.4%. The vaccination rate of influenza vaccine in the surveyed healthcare workers was 56.9% (1846/3244). The gender, age, professional title, position, department, hospital type, hospital nature, hospital level, influenza awareness, and influenza vaccination willingness were the factors resulting in statistically significant differences in influenza vaccination rate among healthcare workers (P<0.05). Binary multiple logistic regression indicated that age≥35 years old [odds ratio (OR)=0.799, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.681, 0.937), P=0.006], the educational background being bachelor degree or above [OR=1.221, 95%CI (1.036, 1.439), P=0.017], position [nurses vs. doctors: OR=1.339, 95%CI (1.112, 1.612), P=0.002; technicians vs. doctors: OR=1.849, 95%CI (1.278, 2.676), P=0.001], the hospital type being specialized hospital [OR=1.804, 95%CI (1.446, 2.251), P<0.001], hospital level [secondary vs. primary hospitals: OR=0.344, 95%CI (0.271, 0.437), P<0.001; tertiary vs. primary hospitals: OR=0.526, 95%CI (0.413, 0.671), P<0.001], influenza awareness [fair vs. poor: OR=1.262, 95%CI (1.057, 1.508), P=0.010; good vs. poor: OR=1.489, 95%CI (1.142, 1.940), P=0.003], vaccination willingness [OR=4.725, 95%CI (4.009, 5.569), P<0.001] were related factors of influenza vaccination in healthcare workers. The influenza awareness was good in 416 healthcare workers (12.8%), fair in 1989 (61.3%), and poor in 839 (25.9%). The correct rate of influenza vaccination frequency was the highest (82.7%), while the correct rate of influenza contraindication was the lowest (3.2%). Among the healthcare workers, 2206 (68.0%) were willing to be vaccinated, of whom 1548 (70.2%) believed that they could protect people with weak immune function around them after vaccination; 1038 were unwilling to be vaccinated with influenza vaccine in the near future, of whom 335 (32.3%) believed that they had strong immunity and did not need to be vaccinated. Conclusions The influenza vaccination rate of medical staff is related to a variety of factors. Strengthening the publicity and education, and encouraging hospitals to provide free influenza vaccination, especially the correct understanding of contraindications, may be helpful to improve the vaccination rate.
Echinococcosis is a zoonotic and parasitic disease caused by tapeworms of the genus Echinococcus. The most common forms of the disease are cystic echinococcosis (CE) and alveolar echinococcosis (AE), caused by Echinococcus granulosus and Echinococcus mutilocularis, respectively, and posing a serious health challenge and economic burden to human society. The most adapted treatment is surgical excision plus chemotherapy, although which mostly is effective, the traumatic damage from the invasive procedure and the adverse effects of the prolonged chemotherapy are profound. Conventional preventions include controlling the source of infection, improving the sanitation in livestock slaughter, strengthening surveillance, and increasing public health education. However, the outcome is limited by the complicity of the geographical nature, cultural background, and unique lifestyle. Vaccination is the most safe and cost-effective way to control infectious diseases. The partial success of recombinant Eg95 as a veterinary vaccine had established a theoretical foundation for the development of a human echinococcosis vaccine, which will shed a light on the prevention, control, and eventual elimination of the human infection. There are promising vaccine candidates in the research and development pipelines in the form of parasite tissue extract proteins, recombinant proteins, nucleic acids, synthetic antigenic epitopes, and vector vaccines. These candidates have shown potential to induce protective humoral and cellular immune responses that block the invasion, eradicate the worm at an early stage, or prevent the onset of infection. We reviewed the progress in the vaccine development and discussed the challenges and solutions in the research and development to facilitate the licensure of a vaccine against human echinococcosis.

ObjectiveTo systematically review the safety of different types of COVID-19 vaccines in the population.MethodsWeb of Science, PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, CNKI, WanFang Data and CBM databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) which reported safety of COVID-19 vaccines in population. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed by using RevMan 5.4 software.ResultsA total of 5 RCTs involving 2 431 subjects were included. The results of the meta-analysis showed that COVID-19 vaccines developed more fever symptoms than placebo (RR=2.21, 95%CI 1.38 to 3.54, P=0.000 9). However, there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions (RR=1.28, 95%CI 0.96 to 1.70, P=0.10), injection site adverse reactions (RR=1.47, 95%CI 0.65 to 3.36, P=0.36) and systemic adverse reactions (RR=0.96, 95%CI 0.78 to 1.17, P=0.66) between two groups.ConclusionsCurrent evidence shows that COVID-19 vaccines are sufficiently safe. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high-quality studies are required to verify the above conclusions.
