Post-vaccination EV71 neutralizing antibody response against EV71 strains of subgenotype B4, B5, C2, C4 and C5, stratified by pre-vaccination titer.

N: number of total participants included in the analyses. Data are GMT (95% CI) or GMFI (95% CI). GMT, geometric mean titer; GMFI, fold increase in geometric mean titers. Seroconversion is defined as pre-vaccination titre less than 1∶8 and post-vaccination titre 1∶32 or more, or pre-vaccination titre 1∶8 or more and at least four-fold increase post-vaccination.aNegative antibody titers (i.e., #Seroconversion rate was significantly higher in the initially seronegative infants and children than the initially seropositive infants and children after vaccination (p*The GMTs of neutralizing antibodies against five EV71 subgenotypes increase significantly after vaccination (p&Seroconversion rate were not significantly different among the five EV71 subgenotypes after vaccination.
