Protocol for Pertussis Immunisation and Food Allergy (PIFA): a case-control study of the association between pertussis vaccination in infancy

We therefore speculate that removal of wP from the vaccine schedule contributed to the observed rise in IgE-mediated food allergy among Australian infants

Dose-Banding of Intravenous Piperacillin-Tazobactam in Pediatric Surgical Inpatients

Dosing errors are the most commonly reported medication error in children. Dosing is often prescribed per weight or based on body area.

Transiently increased IgE responses in infants and pre-schoolers receiving only (DTaP) vaccines compared to those initially receiving at least one dose of DTwP vaccine

Confirm the generalised IgE-trophic activity of the DTaP vaccine in pre-schoolers and demonstrate similar (albeit transient) effects in infants

Respiratory syncytial virus is present in the neonatal intensive care unit

The results suggest that though the risk for RSV in the NICU remains low, personnel clothing are contaminated with RSV-RNA and may have a role in transmission

Whither pertussis?

This article discusses the rising prevalence of pertussis disease in countries which have switched to acellular vaccines.

An introduction to clinical trial design

This manuscript will give a brief overview of clinical trial design including the strengths and limitations of various approaches

Effectiveness of Palivizumab against Respiratory Syncytial Virus: Cohort and Case Series Analysis

Palivizumab appeared effective for reducing virologically confirmed respiratory syncytial virus in this high-risk cohort
