Acesso restrito: Texto completo. p. 204-213Background: Inhabitants of slum settlements represent a significant proportion of the population at risk for pneumococcal disease in developing countries. Methods: We conducted a household survey of pneumococcal carriage among residents of a slum community in the city of Salvador, Brazil.Results: Among 262 subjects, 95 (36%) were colonized with Streptococcus pneumoniae. Children <5 years of age (OR, 8.0; 95% CI, 3.5e18.6) and those who attended schools (OR, 2.7, 95% CI, 1.2e6.0) had significantly higher risk of being colonized. Of 94 isolates obtained from colonized individuals, 51% had serotypes included in the seven-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine. Overall, 10% (9 of 94 isolates) were nonsu...
