Low-dose corticosteroid use and mortality in severe community-acquired pneumonia patients.
The relationship between low-dose corticosteroid use and mortality in patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) remains unclear. 6925 patients with severe CAP who received mechanical ventilation with or without shock (defined as use of catecholamines) at 983 hospitals were identified using a Japanese nationwide administrative database. The main outcome measure was 28-day mortality...
متن کاملInvasive Aspergillosis in COVID-19: A Review Study and Recommendations for Diagnostic Approaches
Background and purpose: COVID-19 is an emerging viral disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Bacterial or fungal superinfections of the lung may cause complications in clinical manifestations, treatment, and increase the mortality rate. In this article, we reviewed previous studies on invasive aspergillosis (IA) in viral infections and in adjustment with...
متن کاملPropensity Score Application in the Relationship of Screen Time and Metabolic Syndrome in Adolescents: the CASPIAN-III Study
Aim: This study aimed to assess the relationship of screen time and metabolic syndrome (MetS) among Iranian adolescents. Materials and Methods In this nationwide study, the propensity score (PS) was used in a matched case-control study design. The data was obtained from 5,625 students aged 10-18 years, who participated in a national school-based surveillance program. MetS was defined accordi...
متن کاملEffects of etomidate on complications related to intubation and on mortality in septic shock patients treated with hydrocortisone: a propensity score analysis
INTRODUCTION Endotracheal intubation in the ICU is associated with a high incidence of complications. Etomidate use is debated in septic shock because it increases the risk of critical illness-related corticosteroid insufficiency, which may impact outcome. We hypothesized that hydrocortisone, administered in all septic shock cases in our ICU, may counteract some negative effects of etomidate. ...
متن کاملAdjunctive corticosteroid therapy for inpatients with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia
BACKGROUND There is conflicting evidence regarding the benefit of adjunctive corticosteroid therapy in patients with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia. We hypothesised that corticosteroid therapy could reduce mortality and length of stay (LOS) in such patients. METHODS Adult patients with M. pneumoniae pneumonia from January 2010 to December 2013 were identified from the Japanese Diagnosis Proc...
