In a retrospective, population-based study, we estimated the age-specific incidence of invasive pneumococcal disease in Hong Kong between 1995 and 2004. The incidence rates per 100,000 were 18.3 (95% confidence interval [CI], 13.9-23.3) for children aged <or=2 years, 15.6 (95% CI, 12.8-18.6) for children aged <or=5 years and 1 (95% CI, 0.52-1.7) for children aged 6-14 years. The findings indicate a significant disease burden.
在一项基于人群的回顾性研究中，我们估算了1995年至2004年间香港侵袭性肺炎球菌疾病的年龄特异性发病率。每10万人中的发病率在2岁及以下儿童中为18.3（95%置信区间[CI]，13.9 - 23.3），在5岁及以下儿童中为15.6（95%CI，12.8 - 18.6），在6 - 14岁儿童中为1（95%CI，0.52 - 1.7）。这些发现表明疾病负担显著。
