Measles vaccination status and evidence of immunity among medical students in Catalonia (Spain), 2023–2025
BACKGROUND: Measles is a highly contagious infectious disease. The importance of vaccinating healthcare workers (HCW) and medical students as future HCW is underlined by the numerous measles outbreaks in health institutions. We aimed to assess the factors associated with complete vaccination, and measles serological status in relation to vaccination history among medical students in Catalonia (Spain). METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducte…
Clinical epidemiology of herpes zoster and postherpetic neuralgia in Barcelona (Spain). A single-center study
Introduction: Varicella-zoster virus is an alphaherpesvirus that causes two diseases in humans: chickenpox, the primary infection, and herpes zoster (HZ). Although HZ incidence has been well-documented, relatively little is known regarding the clinical-epidemiological characteristics of HZ prodromal pain, acute pain, and subacute pain. The aim of the study was to analyse the clinical-epidemiological characteristics of HZ and postherpetic neuralgi…

Absence of short-term changes in knowledge and attitudes among household contacts of Covid-19 cases during the post-acute phase of the pandemic in Catalonia and Navarre, Spain
Objectives To evaluate short-term changes in knowledge and attitude towards COVID-19 and preventive measures during the post-acute phase of the pandemic in Spain. Methods A survey was performed in Catalonia and Navarre between May-2022 and July-2023 in household contacts of COVID-19 cases. Knowledge and attitude were assessed at baseline and at three months, using a Likert scale. Responses were grouped according to correct or incorrect. Results A…
The Relationship between Access to Safe Water and Sanitation and Women’s Health in the Self-produced Settlements
Access to safe water and sanitation in self-produced settlements is a significant societal problem. Yet, there is a notable gap in understanding and evaluating the impact on women’s health, and how this intersects with public space. In Sub-Saharan Africa, nearly half of the urban population lives in self-produced settlements. These are complex environments that are continuously growing and are home to almost two-thirds of the population in cities…
Validación del cuestionario sobre vacunas y reticencia a vacunarse en la Sociedad Española de Epidemiología
Confeccionar y validar una encuesta dirigida a profesionales de epidemiología para medir factores asociados a la reticencia vacunal. La reticencia a la vacunación se refiere al retraso en la aceptación o el rechazo de la vacunación a pesar de la disponibilidad de ella. La OMS la incluyó entre las diez amenazas a la salud global en 2019. En este marco conceptual propuesto por la OMS, un comité de seis expertos de la Sociedad Española de Epidemiolo…
Hacia el control de la Covid-19 a través de la vacunación
En España se inició el programa de vacunación en un contexto de alta transmisión y baja disponibilidad de vacunas. El objetivo de este artículo es revisar el programa de vacunación frente a la COVID-19 (3-3-2022) y valorar los obstáculos, los desafíos y las oportunidades que plantea el control de esta enfermedad. Se dispone actualmente de cinco vacunas: dos basadas en la tecnología ARNm (Comirnaty® y Spikevax®), dos basadas en un vector no replic…
Epidemiological Characteristics and Spatio-Temporal Distribution of Hepatitis A in Spain in the Context of the 2016/2017 European Outbreak
The aim of our study was to describe the results of the epidemiological surveillance of hepatitis A infections in Spain in the context of the 2016/2017 European outbreak, particularly of hepatitis A outbreaks reported in the MSM population, incorporating the results of a spatio-temporal analysis of cases. Hepatitis A cases and outbreaks reported in 2016-2017 to the National Epidemiological Surveillance Network were reviewed: outbreaks in which so…
Costs and Factors Associated with Hospitalizations Due to Severe Influenza in Catalonia (2017–2020)
This study aimed to estimate the cost and factors associated with severe hospitalized patients due to influenza in unvaccinated and vaccinated cases. The study had a cross-sectional design and included three influenza seasons in 16 sentinel hospitals in Catalonia, Spain. Data were collected from a surveillance system of influenza and other acute respiratory infections. Generalized linear models (GLM) were used to analyze mean costs stratified by …

Assessment of two complementary influenza surveillance systems
The combined ILI and confirmed influenza from primary care along with the severe hospitalized laboratory confirmed influenza data from PIDIRAC sentinel surveillance system provides timely and accurate syndromic and virological surveillance of influenza from the community level to hospitalization of severe cases
Epidemiology of pertussis in two Ibero-American countries with different vaccination policies
Pertussis is a public health problem in both countries. Surveillance, prevention and control measures should be improved, especially in DR. Current vaccination programs are not sufficient for preventing continued pertussis transmission, even in Spain which has high vaccination coverage
Invasive pneumococcal disease rates linked to meteorological factors and respiratory virus circulation (Catalonia, 2006–2012)
IPD rates were linked to increased activity of some respiratory viruses and reductions in temperature. Preventive measures, including influenza vaccination, may help reduce IPD
Effectiveness of non-pharmaceutical measures in preventing pediatric influenza
Frequent hand washing should be recommended to prevent influenza infection in the community setting and in special in the school age group
Economic costs of outbreaks of acute viral gastroenteritis due to norovirus in Catalonia (Spain), 2010–2011
The cost of outbreaks of acute viral gastroenteritis due to norovirus obtained in this study was influenced by the number of people affected and the severity of the outbreak, which determined hospitalizations and work absenteeism. Urgent reporting of outbreaks would allow the implementation of control measures that could reduce the numbers affected and the duration of the illness and thus the costs derived from them
Comparison of body mass index (BMI) with the CUN-BAE body adiposity estimator in the prediction of hypertension and type 2 diabetes
The overall correlation between BMI and CUN-BAE was not good. The AFp of obesity for AHT and DM may be underestimated if assessed using the BMI, as may the prevalence of obesity when estimated from the percentage of BF
Geographical differences in whooping cough in Catalonia, Spain, from 1990 to 2010
Differences in whooping cough between rural and urban counties were found. In most years, the incidence was higher in urban than in rural counties. Rural and urban counties show similar cyclic behaviour when four-week periods were considered
Social factors related to the clinical severity of influenza cases in Spain during the A (H1N1) 2009 virus pandemic
In addition to individual factors such as comorbidity, other factors such as educational level, ethnicity or overcrowding were associated with hospitalization due to A (H1N1) 2009 influenza virus infections
Pandemic Influenza A (H1N1) in Non-vaccinated, Pregnant Women in Spain (2009–2010)
The impact of immigration and vaccination in reducing the incidence of hepatitis B in Catalonia (Spain)
The results of the adjusted models in this study confirm that the global incidence of hepatitis B has declined in Catalonia after the introduction of the universal preadolescent vaccination programme, but the incidence increased in male immigrants of working age. Given the potential severity of hepatitis B for the health of individuals and for the community, universal vaccination programmes should continue and programmes in risk groups, especiall…
Influence of socioeconomic status on community-acquired pneumonia outcomes in elderly patients requiring hospitalization
We measured socioeconomic status using both individual and community data and found no association between social class, educational level or municipality family income and the variables of pneumonia outcomes. The lack of differences between social classes supports the provision of universal, equitable health care by the public health system
Parental knowledge of paediatric vaccination
Higher vaccination coverage is associated with older maternal age and greater knowledge of vaccination.Vaccination coverage could be raised by improving information on vaccines and vaccination
