Burden of Interpandemic Influenza in Children Younger than 5 Years: A 25‐Year Prospective Study
Abstract
Many respiratory viruses cause morbidity in young children, but a licensed vaccine and effective oral therapy are available only for influenzavirus. To determine the incidence of laboratory-confirmed influenza illness, we prospectively followed up 1665 healthy children aged <5 years who were enrolled in the Vanderbilt Vaccine Clinic at some point from 1974 through 1999. Viral cultures were obtained when the children presented with clinical illness. The isolation of influenzavirus was associated with an estimated 95 health care visits for children with symptoms of influenza, 46 episodes of acute otitis media, and 8 episodes of lower respiratory tract disease per 1000 children yearly. Rates of acute otitis media and lower respiratory tract disease were highest among children aged <2 years. Hospitalizations associated with culture-positive influenza occurred at an annual rate of 3-4 per 1000 children aged <2 years. Influenza is associated with substantial morbidity in otherwise healthy children aged <5 years.

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.
