Exact excerpt
The primary endpoint was vaccine effectiveness against moderate and severe rotavirus gastroenteritis in children under two years, using pooled data from two multicenter observational studies across 32 hospitals in seven Indian states from July 2019 to December 2023. A test-negative case-control design estimated adjusted effectiveness. Among 2,243 children aged 3–23 months hospitalized with acute gastroenteritis, 638 were ELISA-positive for rotavirus; the remaining analysis participants were test-negative controls.
