Influenza Vaccine Effectiveness in Inpatient and Outpatient Settings in the United States, 2015-2018

Mark W. Tenforde et al.

Summary: This study compared the effectiveness of influenza vaccination between inpatient and outpatient networks in the US, finding that inpatients were older and had more high-risk conditions than outpatients. The overall vaccine effectiveness across seasons was 31% for outpatients and 36% for inpatients, with some differences observed in strain-specific VE between the two groups.

Comparison of local influenza vaccine effectiveness using two methods

G. K. Balasubramani et al.

Summary: This study compared influenza vaccine effectiveness (VE) estimates from outpatient research and administrative databases. Results showed higher VE estimates in the research database but were not significant due to small sample sizes. The selection of the appropriate method for determining VE depends on factors such as sample size and subgroups of interest.

Mitigation of biases in estimating hazard ratios under non-sensitive and non-specific observation of outcomes-applications to influenza vaccine effectiveness

Ulrike Baum et al.

Summary: The study found that incomplete observation of events can bias the estimation of hazard ratios, the newly developed method utilizing weighted partial likelihood and probabilistic deletion of false-positive events enables unbiased semiparametric estimation from incomplete time-to-event data.
