Bugenske et al., (24) 2012 | US | Retrospective analysis of data from cross-sectional vaccination coverage survey | NIS-Teen 2008–2009 (landline only, provider-verified records only) (2008 n = 17 835; 2009 n = 20 066) | Middle school vaccination mandate (2008–2009) | Increase in coverage of Tdap, HPV and MCV vaccines, and increase of all recommended vaccines in adolescents 13–17 yr of age |
