Abstract
Background: Identifying health behaviors associated with adverse events following immunization (AEFI) could identify intervention targets for AEFI prevention.
Methods: University employees receiving an influenza vaccination (n=1301) completed a series of online surveys for health behaviors including sleep, exercise, dietary intake, and smoking habits, and emotional state (baseline), and for indications of AEFI (three days post-vaccination) and influenza-like illness (ILI) symptoms (fortnightly follow-up for 4 months).
Results: 29.9% of participants reported an AEFI and 46.0% reported experiencing ILI during follow-up. Multivariate logistic regression revealed usual sleep duration was associated with AEFI (odds ratio 1.20, 95% confidence interval 1.03-1.41), increasing with each hour of sleep. ILI was associated with reporting AEFI (1.70, 1.24-2.33), increasing BMI (1.03, 1.00-1.06) and survey response frequency (1.13, 1.04-1.22), and decreased with better usual sleep quality (0.96, 0.92-1.00) and with increasing age (0.98, 0.96-1.00). Sex stratification revealed no significant predictors of AEFI for either sex; in women, experiencing AEFI increased likelihood of ILI (1.88, 1.25-2.85) and in men, survey completion frequency increased ILI likelihood (1.19, 1.05-1.36).
Conclusions: Our study suggests modifying health behaviors would not alter AEFI risk and reactogenicity may signal weaker immunogenicity but confirmation through objective measures is warranted.
