Pneumonia severity scores in resource poor settingsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 5 - Trang 30-37 - 2014

Clinical prognostc scores are increasingly used to streamline care in
well-resourced setngs. The potental benefts of identfying patents at risk of
clinical deterioraton and poor outcome, delivering appropriate higher level
clinical care, and increasing efciency are clear. In this focused review, we
examine the use and applicability of severity scores applied to patents with
community acquired pneu... hiện toàn bộ

Pneumonia is a serious health concern, but it does not attract the attention it
warrants. Perhaps this is due to a lack of understanding of the real extent of
this infectious disease in the general population. A literature review was
performed to assess the role of social networks as a means to raise awareness
over pneumonia worldwide and increase its visibility. In 2017, approximately
800,000 chi... hiện toàn bộ
Host genetic variants associated with susceptibility and severity of pneumococcal pneumonia in adult patientsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 15 Số 1

Abstract Background Pneumococcal community-acquired pneumonia (P-CAP) is a major
cause of morbidity and hospitalization. Several host genetics factors
influencing risk of pneumococcal disease have been identified, with less
information about its association with P-CAP. The aim of the study was to assess
the influence of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) within key genes involved
in the innate ... hiện toàn bộ
Corynebacteria as a cause of pulmonary infection: a case series and literature reviewSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 10 - Trang 1-8 - 2018
Katharine Yang, Robert L. Kruse, Weijie V. Lin, Daniel M. Musher
In most cases of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), an etiologic agent is not
determined; the most common report from the microbiological evaluation of sputum
cites “normal respiratory flora.” Non-diphtheria Corynebacterium spp., a
component of this flora, is commonly viewed as a contaminant, but it may be the
cause of pneumonia and the frequency with which it causes CAP may be
underestimated. Th... hiện toàn bộ
Oxygen saturations of medical inpatients in a Malawian hospital: cross-sectional study of oxygen supply and demandSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - - 2016

Oxygen is a World Health Organisation listed essential drug yet provision of
oxygen in developing countries often fails to meet demand. The aim of this study
was to evaluate the need for supplementary oxygen against oxygen delivery
capacity at a large teaching hospital in Malawi. A cross-sectional study of all
adult medical inpatients and assessment of oxygen provision over a 24-hour
period was co... hiện toàn bộ
