“…These values may be attributable to sex-based immune responses and hormonal influences in addition to genetic and epigenetic factors [25,26]. The accumulation of susceptible young persons who are brought together in high-density settings can lead to high levels of infection and an increased risk of exposure [27,28]. Mumps outbreaks were recently reported in the US and in Europe, both with high MMR vaccine coverage [27,29].…”

“…The clinical pictures of mumps virus (MuV) infection is characterized by pain and swelling of the parotid glands, but can involve various other tissues and organs [2]. It can cause serious complications including encephalitis, meningitis, orchitis, myocarditis, pancreatitis, and nephritis [2,3]. Although mumps is a benign disease, often with complete recovery within a few weeks after being infected, long-term outcomes, such as seizures, cranial nerve palsies, hydrocephalus, and deafness, can occur [3,4].…”

Although mumps is a benign disease, often with complete recovery within a few weeks after being infected, long-term outcomes, such as seizures, cranial nerve palsies, hydrocephalus, and deafness, can occur [3,4]. Due to its benign clinical picture, mumps has been somewhat neglected compared with other infectious diseases (e.g., measles).…”

“…Multiple studies have demonstrated that mumps Ab responses, including neutralizing Ab titers, decline significantly over time [6][7][8][9]. Neutralizing Ab is associated with protection, but no specific titer has been identified as a correlate of protection [10]. While ELISAs are commonly used to assess mumps immunity, they detect both neutralizing and nonneutralizing Ab; thus, there is less confidence in the assay's ability to assess functional antibody and protection.…”
