Correlation of influenza infection with glycan array

Poster Presentation: SPB1 / SPB2 - Virus Host Interaction/Pathogensis/Transmission: abstract no. B109PINTRODUCTION: The past 6 years has seen the introduction of glycan arrays containing large numbers of sialic acid (Sia) containing compounds and these arrays have been used to demonstrate the relative binding affinity of influenza viruses to different glycans.

An analysis of target recipient groups for monovalent 2009 pandemic influenza vaccine and trivalent seasonal influenza vaccines in 2009-10 and 2010-11

Poster Presentation: SPA5 - How to Evaluate Vaccine Effectiveness and Efficacy?: abstract no. A513PINTRODUCTION: Vaccination is generally considered to be the best primary prevention measure against influenza virus infection. Many countries encourage specific target groups of people to undertake vaccination, often with financial subsidies or a list of priority. To understand differential patterns of national target groups for influenza vaccination before, during and after the 2009 influenza pandemic, we reviewed and identified changes in national target groups for trivalent seasonal influenza and the monovalent 2009 pandemic influenza vaccines dur...postprin

Efficacy of live attenuated seasonal and pandemic influenza vaccine in school-age children: a randomized controlled trial

Poster Presentation: SPA5 - How to Evaluate Vaccine Effectiveness and Efficacy?: abstract no. A508PBACKGROUND: A novel pandemic influenza A(H1N1) virus emerged in North America in early 2009 and rapidly spread worldwide. Monovalent pH1N1 vaccines were licensed later in 2009 based on preliminary studies demonstrating their immunogenicity and safety. In this study we report the efficacy of live attenuated monovalent pH1N1 vacc...postprin

11th International Conference on Business, Technology and Innovation 2022

Welcome to IC – UBT 2022 UBT Annual International Conference is the 11th international interdisciplinary peer reviewed conference which publishes works of the scientists as well as practitioners in the area where UBT is active in Education, Research and Development. The UBT aims to implement an integrated strategy to establish itself as an internationally competitive, research-intensive university, committed to the transfer of knowledge and the provision of a world-class education to the most talented students from all background. The main perspective of the conference is to connect the scientists and practitioners from different disciplines in the same place and make them be aware of the recent advancements in different research fields, and provide them with a unique forum to share their experiences. It is also the place to support the new academic staff for doing research and publish their work in international standard level. This conference consists of sub conferences in different fields like: Security Studies Sport, Health and Society Psychology Political Science Pharmaceutical and Natural Sciences Mechatronics, System Engineering and Robotics Medicine and Nursing Modern Music, Digital Production and Management Management, Business and Economics Language and Culture Law Journalism, Media and Communication Information Systems and Security Integrated Design Energy Efficiency Engineering Education and Development Dental Sciences Computer Science and Communication Engineering Civil Engineering, Infrastructure and Environment Architecture and Spatial Planning Agriculture, Food Science and Technology Art and Digital Media This conference is the major scientific event of the UBT. It is organizing annually and always in cooperation with the partner universities from the region and Europe. We have to thank all Authors, partners, sponsors and also the conference organizing team making this event a real international scientific event.

Analysis of Serological Surveillance Data: Patterns of Blood Borne Infection and Heterogeneity in People who Inject Drugs

A large proportion of blood-borne viruses (BBV) are transmitted via injecting drug use. Understanding patterns of risk and monitoring trends over time in people who inject drugs (PWID) is therefore a crucial part of developing public health policy. Risks of infection with hepatitis C and B (HCV, HBV) and HIV in PWID are investigated using serial cross-sectional surveillance data, in particular via force of infection (FOI) models. Standard models are extended to include a wealth of covariate data. Individual variability is considered via bivariate shared frailty models and correlations between infections. Gamma, inverse Gaussian and time-varying frailty models are fitted to investigate how variability in risk evolves throughout injecting career. Finally, models are extended to the trivariate case and different forms of component frailty models are proposed. Recent initiates were found to be at high risk of infection, in particular in London and the North West. Subsequently the FOI is broadly constant, and similar across different regions. Frailty models indicate that there is substantial individual variability in risk, although this declines over the course of injecting career. Females have higher overall risks of HCV and HBV, but are less heterogeneous than males. Including covariate data on demographics and a number of risk factors only resulted in modest reductions in frailty variance. Correlations between HCV-HBV and HBV-HIV associations were stronger than for HCV-HIV; trivariate models including additional pairwise components for HCV-HBV and HBV-HIV provided an improvement in model fit compared to a shared frailty model. Many of the results in this thesis point towards greater variation in risk at initiation, potentially due to the varied circumstances in which individuals start injecting, followed by more comparable risks in those with established injecting behaviour. The relative importance of injecting and sexual risk may explain patterns of risk and correlation in the three infections
