  • Changes in Rotavirus Genotypes Before and After Vaccine Introduction
    Jpn. J. Infect.

To monitor changes in the RV genotypes before and after vaccine introduction, we performed a prospective observational study among children (＜ 5 years) with gastroenteritis who test- ed RV-positive on antigen rapid tests. Stool samples were collected from 3 different sites in Japan: Tsu City, Mie Prefecture; Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture; and Isumi City, Chiba Prefecture. RV geno- types were determined using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. In Tsu City, G3P[8] was dominant (61.0–77.1%) before vaccine introduction, but decreased after introduction. Meanwhile, in an inverse proportion to the decrease in G3P[8], G1P[8] increased until the 2013/14 season, when a sud- den predominance of G2P[4] (100%) occurred.

    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Infiximab versus intravenous immunoglobulin for refractory Kawasaki disease: a phase 3, Received: 30 June 2017 Accepted: 5 December 2017 randomized, open-label, active- Published: xx xx xxxx controlled, parallel-group, multicenter trial Masaaki Mori1,15, Takuma Hara1,16, Masako Kikuchi2, Hiroyuki Shimizu3, Tomoyuki Miyamoto4, Satoru Iwashima 5,17, Tatsuya Oonishi6, Kunio Hashimoto7, Norimoto Kobayashi8, Kenji Waki9, Yasuo Suzuki10, Yoshikazu Otsubo11, Hiroshi Yamada12, Chikao Ishikawa12, Taichi Kato13 & Shigeto Fuse14 We compared the efcacy and safety of infiximab with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), a standard therapy, in a phase 3 trial (NCT01596335) for Japanese patients with Kawasaki disease (KD) showing persistent fever after initial IVIG. Patients with initial IVIG-refractory KD, aged 1–10 years, received a single dose of IV infiximab 5 mg/kg or IV polyethylene glycol-treated human immunoglobulin (VGIH) 2 g/kg on day 0. Primary outcome was defervescence rate within 48 h after the start of treatment. Safety was evaluated through day 56. Overall, 31 patients were randomized (infiximab, n = 16; VGIH, n = 15); 31.3% and 60.0% patients discontinued due to worsening KD. Defervescence rate within 48 h was greater with infiximab (76.7%) than VGIH (37.0%) (p = 0.023), and defervescence was achieved earlier with infiximab (p = 0.0072). Coronary artery lesions occurred in 1 (6.3%) and 3 (20.0%) patients receiving infiximab and VGIH, respectively, up to day 21. Adverse events occurred in 15 (93.8%) and 15 (100.0%) patients in the infiximab and VGIH groups, respectively. No serious adverse events in the infiximab group and one in the VGIH group were observed.
