Pertussis vaccine effectiveness in a frequency matched population-based case-control Canadian Immunization Research Network study in Ontario, Canada 2009–2015
Researchers estimated pertussis vaccine effectiveness through a case-control study of 1335 cases statutorily reported to public health in Ontario and occurring between January 1, 2009 and March 31, 2015, compared with 5340 randomly selected population controls, frequency-matched by age, primary-care provider and year of diagnosis. Pertussis cases met provincial confirmed or probable case definitions. Researchers used multivariable logistic regression to estimate crude and adjusted odds ratios.

Under-reporting of pertussis in Ontario: A Canadian Immunization Research Network (CIRN) study using capture-recapture
Understanding the epidemiology of pertussis requires timely, reliable, and accurate surveillance data, but under-diagnosis and under-reporting of pertussis cases are longstanding challenges, compromising the ability to accurately estimate the burden of disease. Researchers aimed to estimate the true number of pertussis cases in Ontario separately in infants and those aged one year and over, and evaluate the completeness of each data source through a three-source capture-recapture data analysis.
