Fever is a frequent systemic adverse event following immunization, especially in infants and young children. Any fever after immunization may be caused by immunization or may coincide temporally as an indication of underlying disease, usually an infectious one. The time pattern of fever attributable to immunization has characteristic features depending on the vaccine used. Comparability of fever rates associated with different vaccines, or the same vaccines in different studies, is frequently… Expand

    Fever following administration of two inactivated influenza vaccines--a survey of parents of New Zealand infants and children 5 years of age and under.
    TLDR
    There is considerable variation in reactogenicity between two 2010 seasonal vaccines in infants and young children and Vaxigrip(®) is significantly less reactogenic in this population in which Fluvax(®,) is associated with unacceptably high rates of febrile reactions. Expand
    Perception and management of fever in infants up to six months of age: A survey of US pediatricans
    TLDR
    Recommendations for the management of fever in infants are likely to depend on fever severity level, the infant age, timing in relation to recent vaccination, and the time of day fever is reported. Expand
    The early-onset febrile reaction following vaccination and associated factors: An exploratory sub-study based on the Ebola vaccine clinical trial
    TLDR
    The findings show that the dose-dependent manner between fever and the dose of Ad5-EBOV in this study might emerge after 6 hours, and which is slight and transient. Expand
    Biologically plausible and evidence-based risk intervals in immunization safety research.
    TLDR
    This report presents a systematic process to define biologically plausible and evidence-based risk interval estimates for two specific AEFIs, febrile seizures and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis. Expand
    Comparison of the immunogenicity and safety of 3 inactivated hepatitis A vaccines in Korean children aged 12 to 18 months
    TLDR
    The results indicate that the most commonly used inactivated hepatitis A vaccines were safe and immunogenic in ethnic Korean children and will be informative to countries that plan to initiate vaccination programs against HAV. Expand
    Fever After Influenza, Diphtheria-Tetanus-Acellular Pertussis, and Pneumococcal Vaccinations
    TLDR
    In this study, delaying IIV4 administration by 2 weeks in children receiving DTaP and PCV13 did not reduce fever occurrence after vaccination, and reevaluating this strategy to prevent fever using an IIV 4 with a different composition in a future influenza season may be considered. Expand
    Postlicensure epidemiology of childhood vaccination: the Danish experience
    • A. Hviid
    • Medicine
    • Expert review of vaccines
    • 2006
    TLDR
    The unique opportunities for postlicensure research in Denmark with respect to the data sources available and the epidemiological and statistical methods used are described and a number of recent postlicensing studies of effectiveness and safety that took advantage of these opportunities are described. Expand
    Vaccination in Elite Athletes
    TLDR
    Very few discipline-specific considerations apply to an athlete’s vaccination schedule mainly from the competition and training pattern as well as from the typical geographical distribution of competitive sites. Expand
    Immunogenicity and Safety of an Inactivated SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine: Preclinical Studies
    TLDR
    A whole virus NRC-VACC-01 inactivated candidate SARS-CoV-2 vaccine was developed and tested its safety and immunogenicity in laboratory animals and it was revealed that the vaccine was highly tolerable. Expand
    Limitations of the rabbit pyrogen test for assessing meningococcal OMV based vaccines.
    TLDR
    The rabbit pyrogen test was developed in the early 1900's to detect contaminating pyrogens in parenteral medicines but is unsuitable as a safety test for these products due to the high levels of endotoxin present in the vaccine. Expand

    Detection of measles vaccine in the throat of a vaccinated child.
    TLDR
    The case of a child presenting with fever 8 days after vaccination with a measles-mumps-rubella vaccine is reported, showing that subcutaneous injection of an attenuated measles strain can result in respiratory excretion of this virus. Expand
    Unexplained fever in young children: how to manage severe bacterial infection
    • I. Brook
    • Medicine
    • BMJ : British Medical Journal
    • 2003
    TLDR
    The bacterial causes, essential diagnostic tests, clinical assessment, judicious use of antibiotics, and follow up in unexplained, difficult to diagnose bacterial infection causing fever in young children are discussed. Expand
    Importance of attributable risk in monitoring adverse events after immunization: hepatitis B vaccination in children.
    TLDR
    This study sought to illustrate the difference between the 2 estimates with data from a hepatitis B immunization program, finding that postimmunization incidence systematically overestimates the risk of adverse events. Expand

    The frequency of serious neurologic events following the administration of 106,000 doses of diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis vaccine at Group Health Cooperative of Puget Sound was determined using a… Expand
    Efficacy of a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine against acute otitis media.
    TLDR
    The heptavalent pneumococcal polysaccharide-CRM197 conjugate vaccine is safe and efficacious in the prevention of acute otitis media caused by the serotypes included in the vaccine. Expand
    Association of reactions after consecutive acellular or whole-cell pertussis vaccine immunizations.
    TLDR
    Reactions after a second or third immunization with either WCL or DTaP vaccine are more likely to occur in infants who had the same reaction after the preceding immunization. Expand
    MMR vaccination and febrile seizures: evaluation of susceptible subgroups and long-term prognosis.
    CONTEXT The rate of febrile seizures increases following measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccination but it is unknown whether the rate varies according to personal or family history of seizures,… Expand
    Varicella vaccine studies in healthy children and adults.
    TLDR
    Clinical trials designed to obtain information on minimum dose immunogenicity pre- and postexposure prophylaxis, immunization of various age groups, and booster immunizations for seropositive individuals documented a 94% to 100% seroconversion rate and persistence of antibodies at 3 to 4 years.

    Efficacy of inactivated and cold-adapted vaccines against influenza A infection, 1985 to 1990: the pediatric experience
    TLDR
    Inactivated trivalent influenza A vaccines are well-tolerated and efficacious in the prevention of influenza A disease in children 1 to 16 years old. Expand
    Comparison of 13 acellular pertussis vaccines: adverse reactions.
    TLDR
    Although there were differences among the acellular vaccines, none was consistently the most or least reactogenic; all were associated with substantially fewer and less severe adverse reactions than a standard commercial whole-cell vaccine. Expand
