description | This study was conducted to assess the nasopharyngeal (NP) carriage and acute otitis media (AOM) occurrence in Korean children who received pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs). The longitudinal study was conducted through four consecutive visits. At each visit, NP aspirates were obtained and subjects were asked to visit if AOM occurred. A total of 305 subjects were enrolled and received PCV13 (n = 182) or PCV10 (n = 123). In the PCV13 group, the NP carriage of Streptococcus pneumoniae at each visit was 2.7%, 14.8%, 18.7%, and 15.9%, respectively. Non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) was 3.3%, 2.7%, 2.7%, and 5.5%, and that of Moraxella catarrhalis was 1.1%, 9.3%, 4.9%, and 0.5%. In the PCV10 group, the NP carriage of S. pneumoniae at each visit was 3.3%, 7.3%, 6.5%, and 4.1%, respectively. That of NTHi was 2.4%, 4.1%, 1.6%, and 0.8%, and that of M. catarrhalis was 4.1%, 0.8%, 0.8%, and 0.0%. AOM occurrence in the PCV13 group observed after the primary dose and before booster dose was 20.9%, occurrence after booster dose was 11.0%, and the incidence of two or more AOM was 11.0%. In the PCV10 group, AOM occurrence was 9.8%, 7.3%, respectively, and the incidence of two or more AOM was 2.4%. The predominant S. pneumoniae isolated were non-vaccine type (10A, 15A, and 15B). In this study, AOM occurrence was lower in the PCV10 group than in the PCV13 group. This seems to be related to ecological changes that lead to differences in NP carriage, especially S. pneumoniae and NTHi. |
