“…Haemophilus influenzae, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Moraxella catarrhalis are the most common causative bacterial pathogens of CARTIs, and an increase in their resistance to orally administered ␤-lactam agents has emerged as a global problem [2][3][4]. Although macrolides and fluoroquinolones are useful alternatives for ␤-lactamase-producing bacteria, common respiratory pathogens have developed increased resistance to macrolides and fluoroquinolones [5][6][7].…”

“…All of the studies were performed in the pre-PCV13 period. The study designs could be categorized into case series of pneumococcal LRTI (15,16), prospective surveillance of pneumococcal LRTI or IPD cases (1,(17)(18)(19)(20), and laboratory-based pneumococcal strain surveillance (21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35). One of the prospective surveillance studies of the LRTI referred to the Japanese Respiratory Society (JRS) guidelines for the management of community-acquired pneumonia in adults (36) as diagnostic criteria for LRTI (17).…”

Serotype Replacement in Adult Pneumococcal Pneumonia after the Introduction of Seven-Valent Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccines for Children in Japan: a Systematic Literature Review and Pooled Data Analysis

“…Japan has very well-established coordinated surveillance network. This is seen with a number of recent studies involving multicenter, single prefecture [105], large multicenter-multiprefecture [108], as well as two nationwide surveillances [106,107]. Of course, separate singlecentered study that also provided valuable finding [109].…”

“…The predicted PCV7 effectiveness among the Japanese would be 42.8%, 55.2%, and 71.7%. If serogroups 6 and 19 which were nondifferentiated by Suzuki et al [105] were included, further 11.2% additional coverage is expected for each PCV. In February 2010, PCV7 was available in Japan and has become the routine immunization recently in 2011.…”

Asia is one of the continents in the world heavily impacted by pneumococcal diseases but yet the information on disease burden and serotype distribution remained largely unclear. The data is essentially needed to inform the burden of pneumococcal diseases as a priority public health concern among the Asian countries. The formulations of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCV) included a number of prevailing serotypes in the Western world but geographical and temporal variations of vaccination effectiveness could be expected in Asia. This review focuses specifically on the most recent five years trend in serotype distributions from both invasive and non-invasive pneumococcal diseases in Asia. Other important features such as antimicrobial resistance and associated clones were also noted. All latest studies reported that complied with the scopes of this review were included and the serotyping data were extracted for comparison analysis between countries, regions, and to represent Asia as the whole. The most common serotypes detected in highest to lowest frequencies order are 19F, 14, 23F, 6B, 19A, 3, and 6A, accounted for approximate two third of the incidences. Heptavalent PCV (PCV7) is expected to cover half of the incidences with significant increment in efficacy with PCV13. East Asia, Southeast Asia, and West Asia have relatively similar serotype distributions though slight variations were observed. The more unique pattern is noted in South Asia region. Initiation of surveillance study in countries with no reporting data is needed. Continued surveillance involving nationwide or multinational collaborative networks need to be set up to enhance and standardize the reporting incidences.
