Predictors of <i>S. pneumoniae</i> carriage in children in the Gaza strip.
*<p>N = total number of children with the specified predictor.</p>**<p>% <i>S. pneumoniae</i> carriage among children with the specific predictor.</p
<i>S. pneumoniae</i> carriage by age and by PCV7 vaccine type (VT7) serotypes, serotypes added to PCV7 in PCV10 (a-VT10), serotypes added to PCV10 in PCV13 (a-VT13).
<p>Light grey-VT7 serotype carriage. Dark grey-a-VT10 (1, 5, 7F), Black – a-VT13 (3, 6A, 19A), White - Non-VT13 carriage.</p
Potential coverage of antibiotic resistant strains in children by PCV7 (Light Grey), PCV10 (Light+Dark Grey) and PCV13 (Light+Dark Grey+Black).
<p>PSSP: penicillin susceptible <i>S. pneumoniae</i>, PNSSP: penicillin non-susceptible <i>S. pneumoniae</i> (MIC>0.06 mg/L), PRSP: penicillin resistant <i>S. pneumoniae</i> (MIC≥2.0 mg/L), MDR-SP: multi-drug resistant <i>S. pneumoniae</i>, defined as non-susceptible to at least penicillin and erythromycin.</p
Prevalence of antibiotic resistance among isolates.
<p>Black - children. Grey - Parents. PNSSP: penicillin non-susceptible <i>S. pneumoniae</i> (MIC>0.06 mg/L), PRSP: penicillin resistant <i>S. pneumoniae</i> (MIC≥2.0 mg/L), ERSP: erythromycin resistant <i>S. pneumoniae</i> (MIC>0.5 mg/L), TMP/SXTR-SP: trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazolenon-susceptible <i>S. pneumoniae</i> (MIC>0.5 mg/L),MDR-SP: multi-drug resistant <i>S. pneumoniae</i>, defined as non-susceptible to at least penicillin and erythromycin.</p
