| bacterial meningitis in navojo indians. | an analysis of 219 confirmed cases of bacterial meningitis among navajo indians during a 5-year period, july 1, 1968, through june 30, 1973, revealed that 56 percent were caused by haemophilus influenzae, 26 percent by neisseria meningitidis, 6 percent by mycobacterium tuberculosis, and 6 percent by other organisms. the annual incidence of h. influenzae meningitis (17.7 per 100,000 persons) and that of pneumococcal meningitis (8.0 per 100,000) were much higher than the rates for these diseases r ... | 1976 | 824672 |
| safety and immunogenicity of a haemophilus influenzae type b conjugate vaccine in a high risk american indian population. | the safety and immunogenicity of a haemophilus influenzae type b polysaccharide conjugate vaccine linked to the outer membrane protein complex of neisseria meningitidis (hib-omp) were evaluated among apache and navajo infants and children. one dose of the hib-omp was given to 42 children who were from 12 and 60 months of age. ninety-two infants 6 to 8 weeks old were given one dose of hib-omp at the time of enrollment. a subsequent dose of the vaccine was given 2 months later and a third dose was ... | 1991 | 2062601 |

| isolations of aerobic bacteria from wild desert bighorn sheep (ovis canadensis nelsoni and o. c. mexicana) in arizona. | nasal, pharyngeal, cervical and vaginal swab specimens were obtained from 74 desert bighorn sheep for the purpose of investigating the normal aerobic bacterial flora of wild sheep. a total of 281 isolates was obtained and identified by standard microbiologic tests. one hundred seven of these isolates were gram positive and included bacillus sp. (36%), staphylococcus epidermidis (8%), s. aureus (4%), corynebacterium sp. (diphtheroids, 4%), and streptococcus sp. (48%). gram negative isolates total ... | 1983 | 6887449 |
| antibody response of navajo children primed with prp-omp vaccine to booster doses of prp-omp vs. hboc vaccine. | we compared in 12- to 15-month-old american indian infants the safety and immunogenicity of two licensed haemophilus influenzae type b (hib) conjugate vaccines, prp-omp (pedvaxhib) and hboc (hibtiter), administered as booster vaccinations. all infants previously received prp-omp for their primary hib vaccinations at 2 and 4 months of age. the geometric mean hib antibody concentrations (microgram/ml) measured by radioactive antigen-binding assay for those receiving prp-omp (n = 17) or hboc (n = 1 ... | 1993 | 8284116 |
| evaluation of pulsed-field gel electrophoresis in epidemiological investigations of meningococcal disease outbreaks caused by neisseria meningitidis serogroup c. | since 1990, the frequency of neisseria meningitidis serogroup c (nmsc) outbreaks in the united states has increased. based on multilocus enzyme electrophoresis (mee), the current molecular subtyping standard, most of the nmsc outbreaks have been caused by isolates of several closely related electrophoretic types (ets) within the et-37 complex. we chose 66 isolates from four well-described nmsc outbreaks that occurred in the united states from 1993 to 1995 to evaluate the potential of pulsed-fiel ... | 2001 | 11136752 |
