Australian First Nations children are at very high risk of early, recurrent, and persistent bacterial otitis media and respiratory tract infection. With the PREVIX randomised controlled trials, we aimed to evaluate the immunogenicity of novel pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) schedules.
Otitis media (OM) is a common disease in early childhood characterised by inflammation of the middle ear.
This study was the first to concurrently identify middle ear pathogens in both bacterial biofilm and intracellularly in the middle ear mucosa of children and to identify extensive DNA stranding in the MEF from children with AOM
We identified several novel candidate genes which warrant further analysis in cohorts matched more precisely for clinical phenotypes.
Both bacteria and viruses play a role in the development of acute otitis media, however, the importance of specific viruses is unclear.
We investigated predictors of nasopharyngeal carriage in Australian Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal children.
Otitis media (OM) is among the most common illnesses of early childhood, characterised by the presence of inflammation in the middle ear cavity...
