*PS14-V, 14 valent polysaccharide vaccine, contained 19F but not 19A; it was replaced in the early 1980s by the 23-valent vaccine containing both 19A and 19F serotypes. aEach of the 5 analyses (from 4 separate studies) is also included in the metanalysis in italics. Mo, month; n.a., not available; VE, vaccine efficacy/effectiveness; wk, week; y, year; vacc, active vaccine group; unvacc, unvaccinated; ctrl, control; 7vCRM, 7-valent conjugate vaccine with CRM197 carrier; 9vCRM, 9-valent conjugate vaccine candidate with CRM197 carrier; 7vOMP, 7-valent conjugate vaccine candidate with outer membrane protein carrier; IPD, invasive pneumococcal disease; AOM, acute otitis media
