The association between parental and neonatal BCG vaccination and neonatal T helper 17 cell expansion

Frederik Schaltz-Buchholzer, Gergely Toldi

Summary: BCG vaccination has an impact on the immune response of neonates, especially when the mother has also received the BCG vaccine. Through immunophenotyping of T-cell subsets and evaluating proliferative responses, it was found that the proportion of Th17 cells was significantly increased in neonates who received the BCG vaccine.

Neonatal Bacillus Calmette-Guerin Vaccination to Prevent Early-Life Eczema: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Laure F. F. Pittet, Lisbeth M. M. Thostesen, Peter Aaby, Poul-Erik Kofoed, Nigel Curtis, Christine S. S. Benn

Summary: Increasing evidence suggests that early-life BCG vaccine has off-target effects that can prevent atopic eczema. This meta-analysis included 3 randomized control trials and showed that BCG vaccination is beneficial in reducing the risk of eczema, especially in boys and children born to atopic parents. The results indicate an 11% reduction in eczema risk with BCG vaccination, and neonatal BCG vaccination should be considered for children of atopic parents.

Does allergen immunotherapy for allergic rhinitis prevent asthma?

Syed Hasan Arshad

Summary: Asthma and allergic rhinitis share similar features and can be treated with allergen immunotherapy (AIT) to improve symptoms and reduce medication usage. AIT is the only known treatment that can modify the natural course of allergic disease and induce long-term remission. However, more research is needed to determine the effectiveness of AIT in preventing asthma, and studies with larger sample sizes and cost-effectiveness evaluations are necessary.

Heterologous vaccination interventions to reduce pandemic morbidity and mortality: Modeling the US winter 2020 COVID-19 wave

Nathaniel Hupert, Daniela Marin-Hernandez, Bo Gao, Ricardo Aguas, Douglas F. Nixon

Summary: COVID-19 remains a global health threat, and non-COVID-19 vaccines may have nonspecific effects that enhance population immunity and provide some protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection. Mathematical modeling suggests that heterologous vaccine interventions could reduce the spread and mortality of COVID-19, and these findings may be applicable to future viral pandemics.

A Recombinant BCG Vaccine Is Safe and Immunogenic in Neonatal Calves and Reduces the Clinical Disease Caused by the Respiratory Syncytial Virus

Fabian E. Diaz, Mariana Guerra-Maupome, Paiton O. McDonald, Daniela Rivera-Perez, Alexis M. Kalergis, Jodi L. McGill

Summary: Human respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV) causes millions of hospitalizations in children under five worldwide, yet there are no licensed vaccines available. Developing vaccines against hRSV requires testing in proper animal models, such as a recombinant BCG vaccine that has shown safety and immunogenicity in both mice and human volunteers. Results from a neonatal bovine RSV calf infection model suggest that this vaccine induces protective immunity without leading to enhanced disease, making it a potential candidate for infant immunization against RSV.

Monkeypox-What Pediatricians Need to Know

Petra Zimmermann, Nigel Curtis

Summary: Monkeypox is a zoonotic disease that has recently seen a global increase in cases, predominantly among men who have sex with men. While previous outbreaks have disproportionately affected children, the risk to children from the clade II strain is unclear. Nonetheless, children and pregnant women are considered high-risk groups and should be considered for antiviral treatment. Smallpox vaccination offers protection, but the duration of this protection is unknown, and vaccinated individuals can still be infected. Authorities should be prepared to vaccinate children if the current outbreak spreads.

Interpreting the Results of Trials of BCG Vaccination for Protection Against COVID-19

Christie C. A. Noble, Nicole L. Messina, Laure F. Pittet, Nigel Curtis

Summary: BCG vaccination has potential off-target effects on nonmycobacterial infections. Trials investigating the off-target protection of BCG against COVID-19 have shown conflicting results, likely due to differences in participant characteristics, BCG vaccination variables, outcome measures, and follow-up durations. Controlling these factors will be crucial in designing future trials and intervention strategies to fully exploit the off-target effects of BCG.
