Population‐Based Incidence of Pertussis among Adolescents and Adults, Minnesota, 1995–1996
Open accessAbstract
To estimate the incidence of pertussis, a prospective study was done among members of a managed care organization in Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota. Of 212 patients 10-49 years old enrolled from January 1995 through December 1996, 8 were found to be culture positive, 10 were found to be positive by polymerase chain reaction assay, 13 had a > or =2-fold increase in IgG or IgA to pertussis toxin (PT), and 18 had IgG to PT in a single serum specimen > or =3 SD above the mean of an age-matched control group. At least 1 positive laboratory test result for pertussis infection was found in 27 (13%) patients, among whom the duration of cough illness was a median of 42 days (range, 27-66 days). On the basis of any positive laboratory result, the estimated annual incidence of pertussis was 507 cases per 100,000 person-years (95% confidence interval, 307-706 cases). Bordetella pertussis infection may be a more common cause of cough illness among adolescents and adults than was recognized previously.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
