Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind Phase 2 Trial Comparing the Reactogenicity and Immunogenicity of a Single Standard Dose to Those of a High Dose of CVD 103-HgR Live Attenuated Oral Cholera Vaccine, with Shanchol Inactivated Oral Vaccine as an Open-Label Immunologic Comparator.

TL;DR: Seroconversion (a ≥4-fold vibriocidal titer rise) between the baseline and 14 days after CVD 103-HgR ingestion and following the first and second doses of Shanchol inactivated cholera vaccine were the main outcomes measured.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This study aims to determine if TS prophylaxis benefits HIV-infected Malawian adults after a good response to ART and if this is due to its antibacterial and/or antimalarial properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Neither IgG subclass nor avidity was associated with the modest, strain-specific efficacy elicited by this blood stage malaria vaccine; however, IgG3, known to have the shortest half-life of the IgG subclasses, might be the most temporally relevant indicator of ongoing malaria exposure when examining antibody responses to AMA1.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sydney L. Olson,Annalise M. Panthofer,William C. Blackwelder,Michael L. Terrin,John A. Curci,B. Timothy Baxter,Fred A. Weaver,Jon S. Matsumura +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated predictors of small abdominal aortic aneurysms volume growth and discussed the role of volume in clinical practice and found that AAA volume grows about 10% annually.
