Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 2-Sep-2010
Injected cholera vaccines are rarely used today, although they may have some benefit. It is valuable to summarize the evidence for effectiveness of injected cholera vaccines for comparison with newer oral vaccines (subject of a separate Cochrane Review). - Vaccines for preventing enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) diarrhoea
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-Jun-2013
Infection with enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) bacteria is a common cause of diarrhoea in adults and children in developing countries and is a major cause of 'travellers' diarrhoea' in people visiting or returning from endemic regions.

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Aug-2015
Chronic pulmonary infection in cystic fibrosis results in progressive lung damage. Once colonisation of the lungs with Pseudomonas aeruginosa occurs, it is almost impossible to eradicate. Vaccines, aimed at reducing infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa, - Vaccines for preventing influenza in healthy adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 30-Jan-2018
The consequences of influenza in adults are mainly time off work. Vaccination of pregnant women is recommended internationally. This is an update of a review published in 2014. Future updates of this review will be made only when new trials or vaccines be - Vaccines for preventing influenza in healthy children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 30-Jan-2018
The consequences of influenza in children and adults are mainly absenteeism from school and work. However, the risk of complications is greatest in children and people over 65 years of age.

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Dec-2012
Influenza vaccination is recommended for asthmatic patients in many countries as observational studies have shown that influenza infection can be associated with asthma exacerbations. However, influenza vaccination has the potential to cause wheezing and - Vaccines for preventing influenza in people with cystic fibrosis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-Feb-2014
