Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The average production rate and lifetime of different T-cell populations after influenza vaccination in CMV-positive and CMV-negative elderly (phase 2).

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
- Absolute numbers of different T-cell populations during the study period (both on base of phenotype markers as CMV-specific and influenza-specific T cells) (phase 2) - The presence/amount of CMV virus shedding in healthy individuals in saliva (phase 1) - The presence and level of CMV IgG antibodies (phase 1 and 2) - The presence/amount of CMV DNA and RNA in monocytes in CMV-positive individuals (phase 1) - Functionality of T cells against CMV (phase 1 and 2)
