Implication

Supports three-dose polio vaccination for robust antibody responses in children; extends immunogenicity data but leaves open randomized confirmation of clinical protection.

Structured PICO

Does the poliomyelitis vaccine produce sustained and increased antibody titers after primary and booster inoculations in children?

P
Population
Children receiving poliomyelitis vaccine (n=4,617 in the main cohort, with smaller cohorts of 186, 115, and 214 subjects)
I
Intervention
Poliomyelitis vaccine (multiple doses including primary and booster injections)
C
Comparator
Pre-inoculation baseline, or comparison between commercial and laboratory-prepared lots
O
Outcome
Antibody titer levels (persistence over a year and increase in response to booster/second doses)surrogate

Three doses of the poliomyelitis vaccine effectively produce high and sustained antibody titers comparable to naturally acquired infection-immunity.
