“…In the case of serogroup C, 90% of the children showed the standard 4-fold increase in antibody concentration at 4-weeks post-vaccination, indicating a typical response (Bertolini et al, 2012; Borrow et al, 2001). Previous studies have consistently demonstrated MCV4 vaccine hyporesponsiveness to serogroup C in subjects previously vaccinated with a meningococcal pure polysaccharide vaccine (MPSV), which was not evident with other serogroups, and suggests that serogroup C may be more sensitive to immune system perturbations (Khalil et al, 2014). Another possibility is that associations were not obtained for other serogroups because a substantial antibody response (for serogroup A) or a more modest response (serogroups Y and W135) to vaccination meant that there was less variation in which to detect a signal associated with parent-child relationship stress.…”

“…Only a few studies have looked at the salivary IgA and IgG antibody responses after vaccination with meningococcal conjugate vaccines , and none were performed in a population in sub‐Saharan Africa – the population with highest disease incidence. Salivary IgA antibody responses to MenW and MenY after vaccination have to our knowledge not been studied previously.…”

“…Although secretory IgA elicited by immunization with meningococcal vaccines may have an important role in colonization, such antibodies were not available for our study. Alternatively, we used IgG, which is also present in mucosal secretions of vaccinated individuals ( 21 ). With anti-MenC PS IgG, we used amounts similar to those measured in mucosal secretions ( 21 ).…”

“…Alternatively, we used IgG, which is also present in mucosal secretions of vaccinated individuals ( 21 ). With anti-MenC PS IgG, we used amounts similar to those measured in mucosal secretions ( 21 ). The levels of IgG in the mucosa elicited by the protein-based meningococcal vaccines are not known.…”
