Durability of Vaccine-Induced Immunity Against Tetanus and Diphtheria Toxins: A Cross-sectional Analysis.
BACKGROUND Many adult immunization schedules recommend that tetanus and diphtheria vaccination be performed every 10 years. In light of current epidemiological trends of disease incidence and rates of vaccine-associated adverse events, the 10-year revaccination schedule has come into question. METHODS We performed cross-sectional analysis of serum antibody titers in 546 adult subjects stratif...
متن کاملPassive Transfer of Transplantation Immunity
Passive transfer of transplantation immunity was accomplished in inbred guinea pigs with tritiated thymidine-labeled lymphoid cells sensitized to homologous tissues. Autoradiographs of the homologous skin graft sites disclosed the presence of relatively few or no labeled cells at the site of rejection. Passive transfer of transplantation immunity was also accomplished with sensitized lymphoid c...
متن کاملImmunity in the Swedish population: diphtheria, tetanus and poliomyelitis.
BACKGROUND Large-scale vaccination programmes have been carried out for a long time in Sweden, as in many other countries. However, often little is known of the effects of these vaccinations. During 1990 and 1991 a survey of immunity based on a random adult population sample was carried out. The main purpose was to estimate the level of immunity to diphtheria, tetanus and polio of the adult pop...
متن کاملPassive Immunity to Poliomyelitis in the Chimpanzee
A series of 6 chimpanzees was inoculated orally with stool from a poliomyelitis patient. Three of these animals had been given 170 cc. of homologous, hyperimmune monkey serum prior to inoculation, while three were unprotected. All 6 of the animals were subsequently shown to have poliomyelitis virus in their stools and characteristic lesions in their central nervous systems although none of them...
متن کاملPassive Immunity in Avian Malaria
The effect of therapy with immune serum has been studied in thirty-two cases of Plasmodium circumflexum infection, all of them produced by blood inoculation. Eighteen of these cases never showed parasites, and seven others developed infections which were definitely milder than those of the controls. The therapeutic serum was in all cases obtained from chronic cases which had previously been sup...
