To identify the risk factors associated with mortality of trauma victims during hospitalisation in the intensive care unit (ICU).
In the present study, both instability of the pelvic ring and injury severity were correlated with mortality of patients with pelvic ring fractures.
To evaluate the factors associated with mortality of ARDS patients and investigate the relationship between age and mortality in ARDS patients.
To define the prognostic factors related with mortality of patients who suffer cardiorespiratory arrest (CRA) in the hospital, according to Utstein style guidelines.
To evaluate the variables associated with mortality of patients with community-acquired pneumonia who require mechanical ventilation and to determine the attributable morbidity and intensive care unit (ICU) mortality of community-acquired pneumonia.
To analyze the relationship between previous severity of illness, lactic acid, creatinine and inotropic index with mortality of in-hospital cardiac arrest (CA) in children, and the value of a prognostic index designed for adults.
The secondary objectives included the analysis of the Candida species involved in the IC, and of the patient outcome according to the final IC diagnosis, and finally of prognostic factors associated with mortality of the overall population of patients with a definite diagnosis of IC.
These H9N2 viruses killed broilers with mortality of 10%40%%, and reduced the laying rates by 14%75%% (Chen et al., 1994; Zhang et al., 1994); however, they only caused mild flu-like symptoms in specified pathogen free (SPF) chickens in the laboratory (Chen et al., 1994).
In last decade, Ostreopsis spp. blooms regularly occurred in the warm temperate coasts of the Mediterranean Sea [11], [12], [13] and have recently been associated both with human poisoning by toxic aerosols [14], [15] and with mortality of benthic organisms caused by water deterioration or by direct toxin intake through the food web [16].
Old individuals treated with anti-IL-10R and with LPS suffered a substantially higher mortality rate compared to the other three groups (Log-Rank, χ23 = 17.15, P = 0.0007, Figure 1), with mortality of anti-IL-10R/LPS mice occurring at days 2 and 3.
