Fourth, the associations between COVID-19 vaccination and MACE, myocardial infarction, stroke, and all-cause mortality were evaluated to assess if vaccines prevent cardiovascular outcomes. No imputation strategy was conducted due to the small percentage of missing data (0.07%). All tests were two-...

19 We used a viral pneumonia diagnosis (ICD-10-CM codes J12.8 and J12.9) to categorize patients by severity of COVID-19. Patients with a viral pneumonia diagnosis comprised 92% of the in-hospital deaths among pregnant people.5,20 Pregnancies were categorized into 3 groups: NOCOVID (no ...
Since our follow-up period for all-cause long-term mortality was up to September 30, 2020, some of patients could have been lost due to COVID-19. We, therefore, conducted sensitivity analyses to avoid possible influences of pandemic on the mortality rates. For sensitivity analyses, patients ...
Data of patients older than 20 years old admitted within 2010–2011 due to pneumonia (ICD Code 480.xx, 481, 482.xx, 483.0, 483.x, 485, 486, and 487.0) were retrieved from the NHIRD for constructing the predictive models. Patient claim data collected in 2010 were used for the training ...
Risk of hospitalization due to pneumococcal disease in adults in Spain. The CORIENNE study. Hum. Vaccines Immunother. 2016, 12, 1900–1905. [Google Scholar] [CrossRef] [PubMed] [Green Version] Ramirez, J.A.; Wiemken, T.L.; Peyrani, P.; Arnold, F.W.; Kelley, R.; Mattingly, W....
Second, increased awareness of disease by both clinicians and patients may result in those patients with COPD being more likely to be hospitalized with less severe pneumonia. Third, this could also be due to a protective anti-inflammatory effect of inhaled corticosteroids and different immune ...
The mechanisms of pneumonia-associated cardiovascular complications included hypoxia, proinflammatory status, platelet activation, thrombosis formation, unstable plaque, increased sympathetic tone, and several adverse effects of antibiotics [11,17,18,19]. As most of the MACEs were due to thromboembolic eve...
Introduction Due to the rapid spread of bacteria that produce extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL), carbapenems are being used more frequently as antibiotics of last resort to treat infections brought on by these multidrug-resistant (MDR) germs [1]. The most common species of these bacteria ...
