Previous issue date: 2007Fundação Oswaldo Cruz. Escola Nacional de Saúde Pública Sergio Arouca. Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brasil.Em 2001 foi realizada a Campanha de Vacinação contra rubéola em mulheres de 15 a 29 anos no Estado do Rio de Janeiro, como parte da estratégia nacional para o controle da Síndrome da Rubéola Congênita (SRC). A vacina contra a rubéola foi explicitamente contraindicada em todas as fases da gravidez e recomendou-se o acompanhamento das gestantes vacinadas inadvertidamente e das mulheres que engravidassem até 30 dias após a vacinação. Os objetivos deste estudo foram: estimar o risco de infecção congênita por rubéola (ICR) associado ao vírus vacinal baseado na literatura científica até 2006, analisar o estado imunológico das gestantes para a infecção por rubéola no momento da vacinação e estimar os riscos de SRC e ICR nos recém-nascidos associados ao vírus vacinal. Foram realizados revisão sistemática e meta-análise e um estudo prospectivo não controlado para o acompanhamento das gestantes e seus recém-nascidos. (...) Não foram observadas diferenças entre as médias de peso dos recém-nascidos segundo resultado de IgM para rubéola. Nenhum RN de baixo peso apresentou positividade para IgM sarampo específica. Na análise multivariada, utilizando-se a regressão logística, o modelo com o estado sorológico das mães para rubéola e idade gestacional no momento da vacinação não modificou o efeito da idade gestacional do RN como determinante do peso ao nascer.

Seroepidemiological profile of pregnant women after inadvertent rubella vaccination in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 2001-2002 Perfil seroepidemiológico de embarazadas después de recibir inadvertidamente la vacuna antirrubeólica, estado de Rio de Janeiro, Brasil, 2001-2002
OBJECTIVES: To analyze postvaccination serological status in pregnant women inadvertently vaccinated against rubella in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study of pregnant women 15 to 29 years old, vaccinated against rubella and measles from November 2001 to March 2002, who were unaware of their pregnancy at the time of vaccination or who became pregnant within 30 days thereafter. They were tested for rubella-specific immunoglobulin M (IgM) and G (IgG) and classified as immune (IgM-negative, IgG-positive, tested within 30 days after vaccination), susceptible (IgM-positive after vaccination) or indeterminate (IgM-negative, IgG-positive, vaccination- serological testing interval greater than 30 days). RESULTS: Of 2 292 women, 288 (12.6%) were susceptible, 316 (13.8%) immune, 1 576 (68.8%) indeterminate, 8 (0.3%) ineligible, and 104 (4.5%) lost to follow-up. IgM seropositivity by vaccination-serological testing interval was 16.1% (d" 30 days), 15.4% (30-60 days), and 14.2% (61-90 days). Considering the campaign's target age, the 20-to-24-year age group had the largest proportion of individuals susceptible to rubella (14.8%) and represented 42.4% (122/288) of all susceptible women. In 75% of susceptible pregnant women, gestational age was 5 weeks or less at the time of vaccination. CONCLUSIONS: Mass immunization of childbearing-age women was justified on the basis of epidemiological and serological data. Follow-up of vaccinated pregnant women revealed no cases of congenital rubella syndrome due to rubella vaccination. However, the observed rate of congenital infection supports the recommendation to avoid vaccinating pregnant women, and to avoid conception for up to 1 month following rubella vaccination.<br>OBJETIVOS: Analizar el estado serológico de mujeres embarazadas tras haber recibido inadvertidamente la vacuna antirrubeólica, en el estado de Rio de Janeiro, Brasil. MÉTODOS: Se realizó un estudio transversal de mujeres embarazadas de 15 a 29 años de edad que fueron vacunadas contra la rubéola y el sarampión entre noviembre de 2001 y marzo de 2002 y que no sabían que estaban embarazadas en ese momento o que concibieron en el transcurso de los siguientes 30 días. Se les aplicaron las pruebas detectoras de inmunoglobulina M (IgM) e inmunoglobulina G (IgG) contra el virus de la rubéola y se les clasificó de inmunes si se obtenían resultados negativos a IgM y positivos a IgG al aplicar las pruebas en un lapso no mayor de 30 días después de la vacunación; de susceptibles si se obtenía un resultado positivo a IgM después de la vacunación, o indefinido si se obtenían resultados negativos a IgM y positivos a IgG tras un intervalo mayor de 30 días entre la vacunación y la aplicación de las pruebas serológicas. RESULTADOS: De 2 292 mujeres, 288 (12,6%) se mostraron susceptibles; 316 (13,8%) se mostraron inmunes; 1 576 (68,8%) tuvieron resultados indefinidos; 8 (0,3%) tuvieron resultados ilegibles y 104 (4,5%) no tuvieron seguimiento. La seropositividad a IgM, según el intervalo transcurrido entre la vacunación y la aplicación de las pruebas serológicas, fue de 16,1% (< 30 días), 15,4% (31-60 días), y 14,2% (61-90 días). En lo respectivo a la edad de las personas a las que se dirigió la campaña, se encontró que el grupo de 20 a 24 años tenía la mayor proporción de personas susceptibles a la rubéola (14,8%) y representaba a 42,4% (122/288) de todas las mujeres susceptibles. En 75% de las embarazadas susceptibles, la edad gestacional fue de 5 semanas o menos en el momento de la vacunación. CONCLUSIONES: Se justificó la vacunación poblacional de todas las mujeres en edad fecunda sobre la base de datos epidemiológicos y serológicos. Durante el seguimiento de las embarazadas no se observó ningún caso de síndrome de rubéola congénita ocasionado por la vacuna antirrubeólica. No obstante, el porcentaje de infección congénita observado refuerza la recomendación de que se evite vacunar a mujeres embarazadas y de que estas procuren no concebir durante un mes como mínimo después de la vacunación antirrubeólica

Unidade de Assessoria Clínica. Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brasil.Fundação Oswaldo Cruz. Bio-Manguinhos. Unidade de Assessoria Clínica. Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brasil.A non-controlled longitudinal study was conducted to evaluate the combined vaccine against measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) immunogenicity in 150 children vaccinated in the routine of three health units in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 2008-2009, without other vaccines administered during the period from 30 days before to 30 days after vaccination. A previous study conducted in Brazil in 2007, in 1,769 children ranging from 12-15 months of age vaccinated against yellow fever and MMR simultaneously or at intervals of 30 days or more between doses, had shown low seroconversion for mumps regardless of the interval between administration of the two vaccines. The current study showed 89.5% (95% confidence interval: 83.3; 94.0) seroconversion rate for mumps. All children seroconverted for measles and rubella. After revaccination, high antibody titres and seroconversion rates were achieved against mumps. The results of this study and others suggest that two MMR doses confer optimal immunoresponses for all three antigens and the possible need for additional doses should be studied taking into account not only serological, but also epidemiological data, as there is no serological correlate of protection for mumps

Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brasil.Background: The live attenuated 17DD Yellow Fever vaccine is one of the most successful prophylactic interventions for controlling disease expansion ever designed and utilized in larger scale. However, increase on worldwide vaccine demands and manufacturing restrictions urge for more detailed dose sparing studies. The establishment of complementary biomarkers in addition to PRNT and Viremia could support a secure decision-making regarding the use of 17DD YF vaccine subdoses. The present work aimed at comparing the serum chemokine and cytokine kinetics triggered by five subdoses of 17DD YF Vaccine.
Methods: Neutralizing antibody titers, viremia, cytokines and chemokines were tested on blood samples obtained from eligible primary vaccinees.
Results and discussion: The results demonstrated that a fifty-fold lower dose of 17DD-YF vaccine (587 IU) is able to trigger similar immunogenicity, as evidenced by significant titers of anti-YF PRNT. However, only subdoses as low as 3,013 IU elicit viremia kinetics with an early peak at five days after primary vaccination equivalent to the current dose (27,476 IU), while other subdoses show a distinct, lower in magnitude and later peak at day 6 post-vaccination. Although the subdose of 587 IU is able to trigger equivalent kinetics of IL-8/CXCL-8 and MCP-1/CCL-2, only the subdose of 3,013 IU is able to trigger similar kinetics of MIG/CXCL-9, pro-inflammatory (TNF, IFN-γ and IL-2) and modulatory cytokines (IL-5 and IL-10).
Conclusions: The analysis of serum biomarkers IFN-γ and IL-10, in association to PRNT and viremia, support the recommendation of use of a ten-fold lower subdose (3,013 IU) of 17DD-YF vaccine

Brazilian Flora 2020: Leveraging the power of a collaborative scientific network
International audienceThe shortage of reliable primary taxonomic data limits the description of biological taxa and the understanding of biodiversity patterns and processes, complicating biogeographical, ecological, and evolutionary studies. This deficit creates a significant taxonomic impediment to biodiversity research and conservation planning. The taxonomic impediment and the biodiversity crisis are widely recognized, highlighting the urgent need for reliable taxonomic data. Over the past decade, numerous countries worldwide have devoted considerable effort to Target 1 of the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation (GSPC), which called for the preparation of a working list of all known plant species by 2010 and an online world Flora by 2020. Brazil is a megadiverse country, home to more of the world's known plant species than any other country. Despite that, Flora Brasiliensis, concluded in 1906, was the last comprehensive treatment of the Brazilian flora. The lack of accurate estimates of the number of species of algae, fungi, and plants occurring in Brazil contributes to the prevailing taxonomic impediment and delays progress towards the GSPC targets. Over the past 12 years, a legion of taxonomists motivated to meet Target 1 of the GSPC, worked together to gather and integrate knowledge on the algal, plant, and fungal diversity of Brazil. Overall, a team of about 980 taxonomists joined efforts in a highly collaborative project that used cybertaxonomy to prepare an updated Flora of Brazil, showing the power of scientific collaboration to reach ambitious goals. This paper presents an overview of the Brazilian Flora 2020 and provides taxonomic and spatial updates on the algae, fungi, and plants found in one of the world's most biodiverse countries. We further identify collection gaps and summarize future goals that extend beyond 2020. Our results show that Brazil is home to 46,975 native species of algae, fungi, and plants, of which 19,669 are endemic to the country. The data compiled to date suggests that the Atlantic Rainforest might be the most diverse Brazilian domain for all plant groups except gymnosperms, which are most diverse in the Amazon. However, scientific knowledge of Brazilian diversity is still unequally distributed, with the Atlantic Rainforest and the Cerrado being the most intensively sampled and studied biomes in the country. In times of “scientific reductionism”, with botanical and mycological sciences suffering pervasive depreciation in recent decades, the first online Flora of Brazil 2020 significantly enhanced the quality and quantity of taxonomic data available for algae, fungi, and plants from Brazil. This project also made all the information freely available online, providing a firm foundation for future research and for the management, conservation, and sustainable use of the Brazilian funga and flora
