Our study shows that plants DNA may be identified in the BAL fluid of pneumonia patients, especially when exploring aspiration pneumonia, but the significance of the presence of plant DNA and its role in the pathogenesis of pneumonia is unknown and remains to be investigated.
The objective of this pilot study is to apply metabolomic analysis to childhood pneumonia to explore its potential to improve pneumonia diagnosis in a high-burden setting.
Secondary objectives were to explore whether C. pneumoniae detection was associated with unique symptoms, pulmonary function, or sputum cell counts, and to contrast the prevalence among respirology and cardiology patients.
Secondary analyses will explore risk factors for pneumonia severity within cases.
To explore whether mortality due to pneumonia is associated with higher healthcare costs compared to death events due to non-respiratory causes in nursing home older residents.
However, that study did not explore the differential incidence of pneumonia after non-RSV LRTI, nor did it explore the influence of age at first episode of LRTI.
Moreover, we were not able to explore other aspects, such as pneumonia or LOS-HOS, because of the limited number of studies and the diverse protein dose among studies.
Ventilator associated pneumonia is a primary problem in the intensive care unit, multiple factors have been associated with its presence in this study we try to explore the possible association between pneumonia and transfusion, describe all other factors associated with this, and the possible association with other nosocomial infections.
This study aimed to explore patients' experiences of having pneumonia and seeking health care; their perceptions of the information provided by health professionals; how they self managed at home; their information and support needs; and their beliefs and preferences regarding site of care.
The aim of this study therefore was to investigate the prevalence of frequently reported antimicrobial resistance determinants among the 27 clinical MDR K. pneumoniae isolates, to explore the distribution of integrons and plasmid replicons, as well as to analyze the genetic clonality by pulse field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and multi-locus sequence typing (MLST).
