Data for seroprotection and seroconversion are n(%, 95%CI); data for titer are GMT(95%CI). 95%CI was estimated by exact test. Seroprotection defined as neutralizing titer of at least 8. For susceptible infants who were seronegative (titer<8),seroconversion was defined as achieving an antibody titer of at least 8; for non-susceptible infants who were seropositive (titer> = 8),seroconversionwas defined as a titer four times higher than the expected fall in maternal antibody concentrations based on the pre-vaccination titer. cIPV = conventional inactivated poliovirus vaccine. bOPV = bivalent oral poliovirus vaccine. tOPV = trivalent oral poliovirus vaccine. GMT = geometric mean reciprocal titer. GMI = fold increase in GMT.
