14. Patterns of influenza infections among different risk groups in Brazil
Influenza virus infections are associated with high morbidity and mortality. Influenza activity varies worldwide, and regional detection is influenced by geographic conditions, demographic and patient-risk factors. We assessed influenza activity and patterns of seasonality during three consecutive years (2001-2003) in three risk groups in São Paulo city. Fo

15. Diphtheria-neutralizing antibody levels in healthy adults from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
In Brazil, until 2004, the immunization policy against diphtheria involved childhood vaccination with no official routine booster dose administered after 15 years of age. This study assessed functional antibody levels against diphtheria among blood donors. A total of 140 blood samples were collected, and diphtheria antitoxin levels were evaluated by Vero cel

16. Detection and molecular characterization of group A rotavirus from hospitalized children in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 2004
Rotavirus is a major cause of infantile acute diarrhea, causing about 440,000 deaths per year, mainly in developing countries. The World Health Organization has been recommending the assessment of rotavirus burden and strain characterization as part of the strategies of immunization programs against this pathogen. In this context, a prospective study was mad

17. Interval between first dose and booster affected antibody production in cattle vaccinated against rabies
In this study, we compared the levels of neutralizing antibodies induced by inactivated rabies vaccine in cattle by using three alternative immunization procedures. Forty-five bovines (breed nelore) were then organized in three groups (A, B and C, with 15 animals/group). Group A received only one vaccine dose at day zero and Group B received the first dose a

18. Molecular epidemiology of human respiratory syncytial virus in Uruguay: 1985-2001 - A review
The variability of the G glycoprotein from human respiratory syncytial viruses (HRSV) (groups A and B) isolated during 17 consecutive epidemics in Montevideo, Uruguay have been analyzed. Several annual epidemics were studied, where strains from groups A and B circulated together throughout the epidemics with predominance of one of them. Usually, group A pred

19. ENSAIOS PRELIMINARES PARA PRODUÇÃO DE ANTICORPOS MONOCLONAIS SOROTIPO-ESPECÍFICOS CONTRA OS VÍRUS DENGUE TIPOS 1 E 2 UTILIZANDO PEPTÍDEOS SINTÉTICOS DESENHADOS A PARTIR DA ANÁLISE ESTRUTURAL DA PROTEÍNA E / Preliminary assays to specific serotype monoclonal antibodies production against the dengue virus types 1 and 2 using synthetic peptides designed after structural analysis of the E protein
The dengue virus E protein is the major target of immunity humoral response. E protein presents differences in primary structure (four structural isoforms) that reflects the possibility of four differents serotypes against this protein, in an immune response. Monoclonal antibodies against these specific regions of each isoform could be used to develop a rapi

20. Seroprevalence of hepatitis B and C in the Western Brazilian Amazon region (Rio Branco, Acre): a pilot study carried out during a hepatitis B vaccination program
In 1999, on the occasion of the application of the first vaccine dose during the state vaccination campaign against hepatitis B virus (HBV), 390 individuals from the town of Rio Branco, Acre, aged two or more years were selected for the determination of the seroprevalence of HBV and HCV. HBV markers (HBsAg, anti-HBs, and anti-HBc IgG) were determined on this

22. Aperçu d'une anthropologie du vaccin: regards sur l'éthique d'une pratique humanitaire
Two interrelated universal practices, humanitarian medicine and immunization, pose certain ethical problems. To shed light on the matter, we present some historical reference points indispensable to an understanding of contemporary vaccination programs, focusing especially on certain anthropological issues posed by this practice as far as representations of
