There is limited data concerning the\ngeneral health of this population and the immunisation status of children with CP is largely unknown.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>Objective:<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>We aimed to assess the immunisation status of children with CP in rural Bangladesh\nand determine the predictors of non-immunisation.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>This study is part of the Bangladesh CP Register (BCPR) study; a population based CP\nregister commenced in January 2015 in the Shahjadpur sub-district of Bangladesh. As part of\nBCPR registration, all children with CP in the catchment area were assessed by a paediatrician\nand their clinical and immunisation history were collected.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>Between January and December 2015, 615 children with CP were registered on the\nBCPR. The median age of the children was 7.5 years, and 38.5% were female. 91.7% of those\nchildren had a BCG vaccine scar (as an objective marker for immunisation at birth). However,\nonly 43.2% reported to have received the rubella vaccine during the 2014 national rubella immunisation\ncampaign. Timing of CP diagnosis was found to be an independent predictor for immunisation\nuptake; those diagnosed before the age of 3 were more likely to have received the rubella\nvaccine (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.6 - 4.3, odds ratio [OR] 2.6, p &lt;0.0001).<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>To the best of our knowledge, this is the first paper to use a formal CP register to\nexamine the relationship between CP and immunisation status in a low or middle income country\nlike Bangladesh. Our data suggest that more than half of children with CP in rural Bangladesh did\nnot receive immunisation during a recent national campaign.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.2174\/1871526518666181024101002","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,25]],"date-time":"2018-10-25T04:28:17Z","timestamp":1540441697000},"page":"318-322","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.2174\/bsp_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Immunisation Status of Children with Cerebral Palsy in Rural Bangladesh: Results from the Bangladesh Cerebral Palsy Register (BCPR)"],"prefix":"10.2174","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"P.","family":"May","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Public Health, Sydney Medical School, University of Sydney, Sydney, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"H.","family":"Smithers-Sheedy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Discipline of Child and Adolescent Health, Sydney Medical School, University of Sydney, Sydney, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M.","family":"Muhit","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Asian Institute of Disability and Development (AIDD), University of South Asia, Dhaka, Bangladesh"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"R.","family":"Cumming","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Public Health, Sydney Medical School, University of Sydney, Sydney, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"C.","family":"Jones","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Dept of Paediatrics, University of Melbourne, Parkville, Melbourne, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"R.","family":"Booy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Discipline of Child and Adolescent Health, Sydney Medical School, University of Sydney, Sydney, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"N.","family":"Badawi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Discipline of Child and Adolescent Health, Sydney Medical School, University of Sydney, Sydney, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"G.","family":"Khandaker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Discipline of Child and Adolescent Health, Sydney Medical School, University of Sydney, Sydney, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"965","container-title":["Infectious Disorders - Drug Targets"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/eurekaselect.com\/article\/download\/166559","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2020,9,23]],"date-time":"2020-09-23T07:24:08Z","timestamp":1600845848000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.eurekaselect.com\/166559\/article"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,20]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,20]]}},"alternative-id":["LiveAll1"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.2174\/1871526518666181024101002","relation":{},"ISSN":["1871-5265"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1871-5265","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,20]]},"assertion":[{"value":"Peer Reviewed","order":0,"name":"review_status","label":"Review Status","group":{"name":"peer_review_details","label":"Peer Review Details"}},{"value":"Single blind","order":1,"name":"review_process","label":"Review Process","group":{"name":"peer_review_details","label":"Peer Review Details"}},{"value":"Checked with iThenticate","order":0,"name":"screening_status","label":"Screening Status","group":{"name":"plagiarism_screening","label":"Plagiarism Screening"}},{"value":"2018-08-12","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2018-09-14","order":1,"name":"revised","label":"Revised","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2018-09-16","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2020-07-20","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
