Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Streptococcus pneumoniae remains a leading cause of bacterial meningitis worldwide. Although pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) have markedly reduced vaccine serotypes (VTs) invasive pneumococcal disease, the emergence of non-vaccine serotypes (NVTs) has become an increasing concern. Data describing the clinical and microbiological characteristics of pneumococcal meningitis after the introduction of PCV13 remain limited.
