1. Forest plot of clinical trials reporting efficacy of acellular and whole-cell pertussis vaccines (38, 404, 590 – 593).
Forest plot of clinical trials reporting efficacy of acellular and whole-cell pertussis vaccines (38, 404, 590 – 593). See Table S1 in the supplemental material for additional details. Greco et al. (a) compared the efficacy of a three-component DTaP vaccine with that of DTP vaccine. Greco et al. (b) compared the efficacy of another three-component DTaP vaccine (from a different manufacturer) with that of DTP vaccine. Gustafsson et al. (a) compared the efficacy of a two-component DTaP vaccine with that of DTP vaccine. Gustafsson et al. (b) compared the efficacy of a five-component DTaP vaccine with that of DTP vaccine. Olin et al. (a) compared the efficacy of a three-component DTaP vaccine with that of DTP vaccine. Olin et al. (b) compared the efficacy of a five-component DTaP vaccine with that of DTP vaccine. DTaP, diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and acellular pertussis; DTP, diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and whole-cell pertussis.
