Serotype distribution and risk factors associated with pneumococcal carriage among children with otitis media in Peninsular Malaysia (2023-2025): A cross-sectional study in the early post-vaccination era

2026-07-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Otitis media is a leading cause of childhood morbidity and presents a significant healthcare burden worldwide. Streptococcus pneumoniae is a major aetiological agent of OM, and the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines into the Malaysian National Immunisation Programme in 2020 would have altered pneumococcal carriage and serotype distribution. This study aimed to determine pneumococ...
