Applying the Concept of Peptide Uniqueness to Anti-Polio Vaccination by Darja Kanduc, Candida Fasano, Giovanni Capone, Antonella Pesce Delfino, Michele Calabrò, Lorenzo Polimeno

“…Although rare, adverse events may associate with anti-poliovirus vaccination thus possibly hampering global polio eradication worldwide. Objective. To design peptide-based anti-polio vaccines exempt from potential cross-reactivity risks and possibly able to reduce rare potential adverse events such as the postvaccine paralytic poliomyelitis due to the tendency of the poliovirus genome to mutate. …”

A systematic review of the worldwide prevalence of survivors of poliomyelitis reported in 31 studies by Alice Theadom, Shivanthi Balalla, Kelly M Jones, Valery L Feigin, Gordon Jackman

“…We aim to undertake a systematic review of all literature concerning the prevalence of survivors of poliomyelitis.Methods Electronic databases were searched from 1900 up to May 2016 for peer-reviewed studies using a population-based approach witha defined denominator and some form of diagnostic or clinical verification of polio. Exclusion criteria were any prevalence data that were unable to be extracted or calculated and studies reporting on incidence only. …”

Immunogenicity of Two Fractional Inactivated Poliovirus Vaccine Doses vs Single Intramuscular Inactivated Poliovirus Vaccine Dose in Infants of Low- and Middle-income Countries: A... by Kunal Kumar, Sangita Yadav, Raghvendra Singh, Archana Thakur

“…Aims and background: Despite the support of the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization, developing countries still struggle to afford inactivated polio vaccine (IPV). This study was undertaken to evaluate and compare the serological status of infants being offered two doses of intradermal fractional inactivated polio vaccine (ID-f-IPV) vs a single full dose administered intramuscularly (IM-SD-IPV) in conjunction with routine bivalent oral poliovirus vaccine (bOPV). …”
