DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-32938-6
Abstract: Clinical investigations lack predictive value when diagnosing pneumonia, especially when patients are ventilated and develop ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP). New tools to aid diagnosis are important to improve outcomes. This pilot study examines the potential… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-92874-w
Abstract: The ideal method of identifying frailty is uncertain, and data on long-term outcomes is relatively limited. We examined frailty indices derived from population-scale linked data on Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and hospitalised non-ICU patients with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/resp.13135
Abstract: Antibiotic resistance is of great concern for both infection control and the treatment of infectious diseases. Previous studies reported that the occurrence of drug‐resistant pathogens (DRPs)—for instance, methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Pseudomonas aeruginosa and extended‐spectrum… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0188913
Abstract: Background Despite on-going advances in medical treatment, the burden of disease of pneumonia remains high. We aimed to determine the association of the qSOFA score with in-hospital mortality, length of hospitalisation, and admission to the… read more here.
