Аннотация
A hospital-based pair-matched case-control study was performed at Government Medical College Hospital, Nagpur, to estimate the effectiveness of Bacillus Calmette Guerin (BCG) vaccination against genital tuberculosis. The study included 48 cases of genital tuberculosis in the age group of 21-34 years and an equal number of controls, matched for age and socioeconomic status. The estimates of vaccine effectiveness and prevented fraction were higher for the subjects in the age group of 21-30 years and subjects from middle strata of socioeconomic class. The overall vaccine effectiveness and prevented fraction was estimated to be 75 (38.85-89.79) and 49.99 (17.46-74.55) per cent respectively. Results of this study thus indicate that BCG vaccination is effective against genital tuberculosis.
