- †Received (yes) or did not receive (no) seasonal influenza vaccine during the preceding season (2010–2011); QIV, inactivated quadrivalent influenza vaccine; n/N, number fulfilling definition of response/total number in group; SCR, seroconversion rate defined as the proportion with antibody titer <1:10 at baseline and with post-vaccination titer of ≥1:40, or pre-vaccination titer of ≥1:10 and a ≥4-fold post-vaccination increase in titer; SPR, seroprotection rate defined as proportion with post-vaccination titer ≥1:40; MGI, mean geometric increase defined as the geometric mean of the ratio between pre-vaccination and post-vaccination reciprocal titers; Immune responses were assessed according to the to the European Union Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) licensure criteria: to fulfil the criteria the point estimates for SCR needed to be >40%, for SPR >70%, and MGI >2.5 in the 18–60 years group, and SCR >30%, for SPR >60%, and MGI >2.0 in the >60 years group [21].
