Collaborative centralized reminder/recall notification to increase immunization rates among young children: a comparative effectiveness trial.
The objectives of this study were to compare the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a collaborative centralized (CC) reminder/recall approach with that of a practice-based (PB) reminder recall approach for increasing immunization rates among preschool-aged children. It found that a CC reminder/recall notification was more effective and more cost-effective than a PB system, although the effect size was modest.

Direct, indirect, total, and overall effectiveness of the rotavirus vaccines for the prevention of gastroenteritis hospitalizations in privately insured US children, 2007-2010.
This study demonstrated how direct, indirect, total, and overall effectiveness estimates and absolute benefits of rotavirus vaccines vary through the years following vaccine introduction. It found that direct effectiveness of 1 or more doses of rotavirus vaccine in preventing rotavirus gastroenteritis hospitalizations ranged from 87 to 92 percent each year.
