Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| We investigate the following three immunological markers before and 1 month, 6 months, 12 months after PCV13 vaccinations. 1. pneumococcal serotype specific IgG concentrations against serotypes which are present in PCV13. 2. pneumococcal serotype specific opsonophagocytic killing assay titers against serotypes which are present in PCV13. 3. the number of pneumococcal serotype specific memory B cells against serotypes which are present in PCV13. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. the number of leukocyte and lymphocyte (before and 1 month, 6 months, 12 months after PCV13 vaccinations) 2. serum IgG consentrations and IgG subclasses (before and 12 months after PCV13 vaccinations) 3. pneumococcal detection from nasopharyngeal swab or saliva (before and 12 months after PCV13 vaccinations) 4. the incidence of adverse effects (1 month after PCV13 vaccinations) 5. the incidence of invasive pneumococcal diseases (12 months after PCV13 vaccinations) | — |
