Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Menactra Vaccine RecipientsChildren 2 years through 10 years of age who received Menactra vaccine within Kaiser Permanente during the study period. They served as their own controls for evaluation of acute (Days 0-30) events. Rates of events occurring during Days 0-30 following vaccination were compared to rates of events occurring during Days 31-60 following vaccination. Six-month surveillance: For each individual receiving Menactra vaccine, the rate of an event in the 30-day follow-up period was compared with the rate of the same event in the 31-180-day follow-up period using age, sex, and seasonality as covariates in Cox regression analyses. Menactra vaccine was administered according to routine clinical practice.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Summary of Diagnoses With Elevated Findings for Risk-Window vs. Control-Window Comparisons at the 5% Significance Level.

    Incidence rates for each diagnosis were calculated as the number of events divided by person-time and expressed as events per 1,000 person-months in each comparison window. Clinical setting is given in parenthesis as (H) for hospital.

    Measured: Day 0 up to Day 30 post-vaccination

  2. Summary of Diagnoses With Elevated Findings for Risk-Window vs. Control-Window Comparisons at the 5% Significance Level.
