Similar to other European countries, cervical infection with HPV-16, the HPV type with the strongest oncogenic potential, were most common both overall and among women with cervical disease.
The authors describe the epidemiology of invasive Hib and nontype b H. influenzae infections in children <15 years of age in the United Kingdom from 1994 until 2008, and show that the resurgence in Hib disease during the years 1999-2003 did not affect the epidemiology of invasive nontype b H. influenzae disease in children, which provides further support against serotype replacement.
The authors performed a literature review of all economic evaluations (EEs) of HPV vaccines conducted in EU countries and published in English from January 2007 to June 2010. EEs were classified and compared according to their model, the economic variables used, the modelling techniques and whether or not they had financial backing from vaccine manufacturers.
