Menactra Vaccine RecipientsNone administered in this studyParticipants who received Menactra vaccine as part of routine medical care during the study period in Kaiser Permanente.
Age-Matched ControlNone administered in this studyEach individual receiving Menactra vaccine served as their own control for evaluation of acute (Days 0-30) events (short-term surveillance). For the 6-month (long-term) surveillance, for each person receiving Menactra vaccine, a control matched on age (± 1 year), sex, and month of vaccination was selected who received a received tetanus and diphtheria toxoids (Td), hepatitis A, hepatitis B, or hepatitis A/hepatitis B combination vaccine as part of routine medical care during the same month 1 year earlier in Kaiser Permanente
Primary Outcome Measures

Summary of Diagnoses With Significantly Elevated Findings From Risk-Window vs. Control-Window Comparisons: All Ages Combined - Short-Term Passive SurveillanceDay 0 up to Day 60 post-vaccination

Incidence rates for each diagnosis were calculated as the number of events divided by person-time and expressed as events per 1,000 person-months in each 30-day comparison window. Individuals receiving Menactra vaccine served as their own controls for evaluation of acute (Days 0-30) events. Rates of events occurring during Days 0-30 following vaccination were compared to rates of events occurring during Days 31-60 following vaccination. Clinical setting is given in parenthesis as either (H) for hospital or (ER) for emergency room.
