Introduction: Diphtheria is an acute infectious disease caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae. Although the incidence of diphtheria worldwide has rapidly declined following the largely successful diphtheria toxoid-based vaccines, concerns persist for those who were unvaccinated or incompletely vaccinated.

Abstract Background Diphtheria is caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae and can cause respiratory or skin infections.

Background:Immunosuppressive drugs, decreased vaccine coverage, aberrant immunity might be factors of low anti-vaccine antibodies in JIA patients.Objectives:The study aimed to evaluate risk factors of non-protective levels of antibodies against measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis B and diphtheria in JIA patients.Methods:A prospective study included 170 children diagnosed with JIA aged 2 to 17 years, who received routine vaccinations against measles, rubella, mumps, diphtheria and hepatitis B. In all patients, the levels of post-vaccination antibodies (IgG) for measles, rubella, mumps, hepatitis

Abstract:
Vaccinations in adults and older patients are of special importance due to two main reasons: physiological and anatomical alterations in the body as it ages, making diseases more serious and possibly fatal, and so that adult individuals have a decreased immunological response when they are exposed to infections. Major adult vaccination includes influenza, pneumococcal pneumonia and meningitis, pertussis, tetanus, diphtheria, and hepatitis. In this study, our aim was to understand the recent updates on adult immunization and their efficacy in disease prevention. We conducted this review using a

Abstract:
Before the introduction of planned vaccination against diphtheria in Tatarstan, the number of diphtheria cases per 100 thousand people was 25.3 in 1920-1929 - 25.3, 1930-1939 - 66.5, 1940-1949 - 75.4, 1950-1959 - 67,2. Planned vaccination, which began in 1955-1956, contributed to a decrease in the number of cases. Over the following decades, the average incidence rate per 100,000 population steadily decreased and was in 1960-1969 - 5.2, 1970-1979 - 0,07. However, in 1982-1985 there was a slight increase in the number of diphtheria cases, so the average morbidity rate for 1980-1989 slightly inc

Abstract Background Adult vaccinations may reduce risk for dementia. However, it has not been established whether tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis (Tdap) vaccination is associated with incident dementia. Methods Hypotheses were tested in a Veterans Health Affairs (VHA) cohort and replicated in a MarketScan medical claims cohort. Patients were at least 65 years of age and free of dementia for 2 years prior to index date. Patients either had or did not have a Tdap vaccination by the start of either of the 2 index periods (2011 or 2012). Follow-up continued through 2018. Controls had no Tdap vaccin
