    Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Infections in Adults: Current Trends and Recommendations for Prevention - a Global Challenge From a Local Perspective
    (Taylor & Francis inc, 2025) Tanriover, Mine Durusu; Azap, Alpay; Cakir Edis, Ebru; Ozger, Hasan Selcuk; Pullukcu, Husnu; Sonmezer, Meliha Cagla; Sayiner, Abdullah
    Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a leading cause of lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI) and a major health threat especially for children and older adults. Epidemiological data reveal that RSV-associated global mortality rates in individuals aged >= 70 years exceeded those in children aged < 5 years in 2019. Although effective interventions have decreased RSV-related deaths in children aged < 5 years over time, RSV appears increasingly significant issue for the elderly and adults with underlying health conditions. Furthermore, there is currently no specific treatment for RSV infections in adults, highlighting the importance of prevention. Recently, three vaccines (RSVPreF3, RSVpreF, and mRNA-1345) have been approved for adults to date. In this article, we aimed to review the characteristics of RSV infections in adults and the evidence on the safety and efficacy of RSV vaccines, with a glimpse of the current situation in T & uuml;rkiye- one of the low- and middle- income countries (LMICs).

    Effectiveness of a Program To Raise Awareness About Pneumococcal Vaccination Among Physicians and Patients With Chronic Respiratory Diseases: a Multicenter Cohort Study
    (AVES, 2024) Karakurt, Z.; Yalnız, E.; Altın, S.; Oruç, Ö.; Uslu, Ö.; Veske, N.Ş.; Kılınç, O.; Sayıner, Abdullah
    OBJECTIVE: There is a need to increase patient and clinician awareness on the effectiveness of pneumococcal vaccination in at-risk groups. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of reminders for physicians and patients using the vaccination tracking system created in the hospital information management system (HIMS) on the vaccination rate, and the effect of pneumococcal vaccination on pneumonia-related hospitalization and mortality over a 12-month period. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This prospective observational cohort study was undertaken during a 2-year period in 3 tertiary care cen-ters. Patients were followed up for 12 months following vaccination, and hospital admissions and mortality were recorded via HIMS. During the campaign, HIMS transmitted pneumococcal immunization reminder messages in accordance with guideline recommendations to physicians’ computers and patients’ mobile phones. Educational posters on pneumococcal vaccination were posted in outpatient clinics. Regular seminars on the evidence for pneumococcal vaccination were organized. All patients who were hospitalized during the follow-up period for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, lung cancer, or pneumonia were analyzed in relation to their vaccination history regarding clinical outcomes. RESULTS: A total of 29 530 patients were included in the study. During the study period, the annual vaccination rate increased by 74.4% and reached 4.8% in 3 hospitals (P = .001). The rates were 3.9% in patients older than 65 years without comorbidities and 5.2% in those with COPD and asthma (P = .002). In pneumococcal vaccine recipients, pneumonia-related hospital mortality was lower (relative risk (RR) = 0.19, CI 0.09-0.35, P < .001). CONCLUSION: It is possible to raise the rate of pneumococcal vaccination through awareness campaigns. Individuals with COPD and asthma are more willing to receive pneumococcal vaccination. Among patients hospitalized for pneumonia, prior pneumococcal vaccination is associated with lower mortality. © Author(s).

    Burden of Pneumococcal Disease and Adult Vaccination Landscape: An Overview With Data and Policy Insights From Turkiye
    (Doc Design Informatics Co Ltd, 2025) Durusu-Tanriover, Mine; Adak, Mine; Cicekcioglu, Hulya; Ozger, Hasan Selcuk; Zeren-Ozturk, Guzin; Sonmezer, Meliha Cagla; Sayiner, Abdullah
    Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) is responsible for various non-invasive and invasive infections and remains a major source of morbidity and mortality, particularly among older adults and at-risk adults. Vaccination is an effective way to prevent pneumococcal disease, and pneumococcal vaccines have been part of national immunization programs for many years. While vaccination coverage is high in children, uptake among older adults and at-risk adult populations remains below desired levels. This article aimed to highlight the burden of pneumococcal disease in adults, review current pneumococcal vaccines, and present a comprehensive overview supported by data from Turkiye.
