Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Jul-2007
Smallpox was eradicated by 1980, but its possible use as a bioweapon has rekindled interest in the development of protective vaccines. Therefore, stockpiled calf lymph-derived vaccines and recently developed cell-cultured vaccines have been investigated t - Vaccines for preventing tick‐borne encephalitis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 21-Jan-2009
Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is a disease of the central nervous system caused by a tick-borne viral infection. TBE can lead to severe neurological syndromes such as meningitis, meningoencephalitis, and meningoencephalomyelitis, which can result in death - Vaccines for preventing typhoid fever
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 31-May-2018
Typhoid fever and paratyphoid fever continue to be important causes of illness and death, particularly among children and adolescents in south-central and southeast Asia. Two typhoid vaccines are widely available, Ty21a (oral) and Vi polysaccharide (paren - Vaccines for prophylaxis of viral infections in patients with hematological malignancies
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 26-Jan-2011
Viral infections cause significant morbidity and mortality in patients with hematological malignancies. It remains uncertain whether viral vaccinations in these patients are supported by good evidence. - Vaccines for the common cold
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-May-2017
The common cold is a spontaneously remitting infection of the upper respiratory tract, characterised by a runny nose, nasal congestion, sneezing, cough, malaise, sore throat, and fever (usually < 37.8º C). The widespread morbidity caused by the common col - Vaccines for women for preventing neonatal tetanus
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Jul-2015

Pre - Vaginal chlorhexidine during labour for preventing maternal and neonatal infections (excluding Group B Streptococcal and HIV)
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 14-Sep-2014
The incidence of chorioamnionitis occurs in between eight and 12 women for every 1000 live births and 96% of cases of chorioamnionitis are due to ascending infection. Following spontaneous vaginal delivery, 1% to 4% of women develop postpartum endometriti - Vaginal chlorhexidine during labour to prevent early-onset neonatal group B streptococcal infection
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 4-Dec-2014
Although early-onset group B ß-hemolytic streptococcus (GBS) infection is rare, it accounts for approximately 30% of neonatal infections, has a high mortality rate, and is acquired through vertical transmission from colonized mothers. Several trials have - Vaginal dilator therapy for women receiving pelvic radiotherapy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 8-Sep-2014
Vaginal dilation therapy is advocated after pelvic radiotherapy to prevent stenosis (abnormal narrowing of the vagina), but can be uncomfortable and psychologically distressing. - Vaginal disinfection for preventing mother‐to‐child transmission of HIV infection
