Prevalence of Pneumococcal Serotypes in Community-Acquired Pneumonia among Older Adults in Italy: A Multicenter Cohort Study

Andrea Orsi et al.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the serotype-specific epidemiology of pneumococci among hospitalized older adults in Italy. The prevalence of pneumococcal infection among hospitalized CAP cases was 13.1%, with serotypes 3, 8, 22F, and 11A being the most common. PCV20, which includes these serotypes, plays an important role in preventing pneumonia in older adults.

Dynamics of Invasive Pneumococcal Disease in Israel in Children and Adults in the 13-Valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PCV13) Era: A Nationwide Prospective Surveillance

Shalom Ben-Shimol et al.

Summary: A ten-year surveillance after the implementation of PCV7/PCV13 showed a significant reduction in invasive pneumococcal disease in children and adults, with stabilization after four years. The main PCV13 serotypes were 3, 19A, and 14, while serotypes 8 and 12F were the predominant nonvaccine serotypes.

Recalibrated estimates of non-bacteremic and bacteremic pneumococcal community acquired pneumonia in hospitalized Canadian adults from 2010 to 2017 with addition of an extended spectrum serotype-specific urine antigen detection assay

Jason J. LeBlanc et al.

Summary: This study provides updated data on pneumococcal community-acquired pneumonia (pCAP) and invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) in hospitalized adults from 2010 to 2017 in the context of age- and risk-based pneumococcal vaccine recommendations in Canada. The results show that the risk of pneumococcal infection in adults is related to age and disease category, with differences observed among different age groups. Moreover, the study supports the direct immunization of adults with PCV13 or higher-valency conjugate vaccines to reduce the burden of pCAP and IPD, considering the insufficient herd protection from PCV13 childhood immunization or the use of PPV23 in adults.

Effectiveness of the 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine against community-acquired pneumonia in older individuals after the introduction of childhood 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine: A multicenter hospital-based case-control study in Japan

Kei Nakashima et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the effectiveness of the 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23) against all-cause pneumonia and pneumococcal pneumonia in older individuals with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) after the introduction of childhood PCV13 in Japan. The results showed that PPSV23 was not effective against all-cause pneumonia and pneumococcal pneumonia after the introduction of childhood PCV13.

Serotype Replacement after Introduction of 10-Valent and 13-Valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccines in 10 Countries, Europe

Germaine Hanquet et al.

Summary: We evaluated the incidence of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) in Europe during the 8 years of infant pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) programs using PCV10 and PCV13 vaccines. IPD incidence declined between 2011 and 2014, but increased between 2015 and 2018. The incidence of non-PCV13 serotypes increased while PCV13 serotypes decreased. Similar trends were observed in countries using PCV13 or PCV10 vaccines. The study highlights the need for new vaccines providing broader serotype protection.

The Evolution and Distribution of Pneumococcal Serotypes in Adults Hospitalized With Community-Acquired Pneumonia in Spain Using a Serotype-Specific Urinary Antigen Detection Test: The CAPA Study, 2011-2018

Antoni Torres et al.

Summary: After 8 years of introducing PCV13 vaccine in childhood immunization program in Spain, PCV13-VT caused a substantial proportion of CAP in Spanish immunocompetent adults. Improving direct PCV13 coverage of targeted adult populations could further reduce PCV13-VT burden, and introducing PCV20 could potentially increase the benefits even further.

Expanded Analysis of 20 Pneumococcal Serotypes Associated With Radiographically Confirmed Community-acquired Pneumonia in Hospitalized US Adults

Raul Isturiz et al.

Summary: This study identified a significant proportion of hospitalized adult CAP cases associated with PCV20-unique serotypes, showing the potential of PCV20 in addressing the burden of CAP caused by additional serotypes not covered by PCV13. UAD2 detection technology played a crucial role in identifying and differentiating these serotypes.
