Bias in the measure of the effectiveness of seasonal influenza vaccination among diabetics

• Many outcomes based on morbimortality have measured the seasonal influenza vaccine's effectiveness on patients with diabetes aged 65 and higher. • For working-age patients with diabetes, studies are rare and the effectiveness measured sometimes non significant for some outcomes. • Several bia...

Zusammenfassung:• Many outcomes based on morbimortality have measured the seasonal influenza vaccine's effectiveness on patients with diabetes aged 65 and higher. • For working-age patients with diabetes, studies are rare and the effectiveness measured sometimes non significant for some outcomes. • Several biases restricted the demonstration of the seasonal influenza vaccine's effectiveness for patients with diabetes. • The residual confounding between vaccinated and non-vaccinated diabetics has been measured by analysing the persistence of a decrease of morbimortality other than during influenza season. • It would be interesting in future works to use this approach in order to test the effect of adjustment of the healthy vaccine bias.
