A total of 456 children of 1\u2003month to 15\u2003years, were studied. Serum IgG antibodies against MMR were measured by enzyme\u2010linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). By 3\u2003months, protective IgG antibody level (&gt;40\u2003AU for measles and mumps and &gt;15\u2003IU\/ml for rubella) for the diseases found to be between 50% and 80% among the studied children. Protective measles antibody (IgG) was not detected in all the children of 3\u20139\u2003months and significant number of children between 9\u2003months and 5\u2003years were unprotected (87\u201365%;\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2003&lt;\u20030.001). Moreover, children of 3\u201315\u2003months had no protective antibody level against mumps and significant number of children between 15\u2003months and 5\u2003years were unprotected (92\u201371%;\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2003&lt;\u20030.001). Between 5 and 15\u2003years of age, significant number of children became protective (63\u201385%,\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2003&lt;\u20030.001). Although, a majority of children between 3\u2003months and 5\u2003years had shown to have no protective antibody against rubella (89\u201371%;\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2003&lt;\u20030.01\u20130.001) between &gt;10 and 15\u2003years 71% children had protective level of antibodies (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2003&lt;\u20030.001). No significant difference was observed in antibody prevalence regarding socioeconomic classes, nutritional status and parental education. The data showed that: (i) a significant number of children remain unprotected against MMR in childhood and (ii) an extensive nationwide survey is required to suggest an integrated vaccination strategy in order to implement appropriate control measures of the three infectious diseases.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-3083.2006.01857.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,10,18]],"date-time":"2006-10-18T02:12:47Z","timestamp":1161137567000},"page":"684-689","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Prevalence of IgG Antibody Against Measles, Mumps and Rubella in Bangladeshi Children: A Pilot Study to Evaluate the Need for Integrated Vaccination Strategy"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"64","author":[{"given":"R.","family":"Sultana","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M.
