BACKGROUND Middle East Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) is a viral respiratory disease. Most people infected with MERS-CoV develop severe acute respiratory illness. It was first reported in Saudi Arabia in 2012 and has since spread to several other countries. We report the clinical course of MERS-CoV infection in a pregnant woman who acquired the infection during the last trimester. ...
BACKGROUND Simple markers for evaluating the severity of lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI) in primary care are lacking. It is of value to examine whether the information available to the primary care physician during a patient's initial visit can be used to assess the severity of LRTI. METHODS The associations between different baseline variables and outcomes (survival within or more ...
BACKGROUND Sugar cane harvesting by burning on Maui island is an environmental health issue due to respiratory effects of smoke. Volcanic smog ("vog") from an active volcano on a neighboring island periodically blankets Maui and could confound a study of cane smoke's effects since cane burning is not allowed on vog days. This study examines the association between cane burning and emergency dep...
BACKGROUND Influenza infections commonly lead to respiratory tract complications that result in antibiotic treatment. OBJECTIVES To determine frequency of respiratory events leading to antibiotic use following influenza illness in adolescents and adults, and to assess whether treatment with topical zanamivir prevents these complications. METHODS Meta-analysis of 7 randomized, double-blind, ...
BACKGROUND Data on causes of death due to respiratory illness in Africa are limited. METHODS From January to April 2013, 28 African countries were invited to participate in a review of severe acute respiratory illness (SARI)-associated deaths identified from influenza surveillance during 2009-2012. RESULTS Twenty-three countries (82%) responded, 11 (48%) collect mortality data, and 8 provid...
Acute pneumonia developed in a previously healthy man during the outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in southern China in March 2003. Antibiotic treatment was ineffective, and he died 8 days after illness onset. Human metapneumovirus was isolated from lung tissue. No other pathogen was found. Other etiologic agents should thus be sought in apparent SARS cases when coronavirus i...
Introduction and purpose: Air pollution is an important risk factor for the environment and public health, associated with increased severity of respiratory diseases. This study aimed to evaluate the association between various air pollutants and number of cases with severe acute respiratory syndrome referred to emergency medical centers in Tehran, Iran in 2013. ...
OBJECTIVES To determine whether there is evidence of immunological responses in infants with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) bronchiolitis by measuring inflammatory mediators in peripheral blood and, if found, whether these related to the severity of illness. PATIENTS AND METHODS Blood was taken from 94 children with RSV infection during the acute episode and 10 or more days later when the ...
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to test whether population mortality rates from heart, respiratory and kidney disease were higher as a function of levels of Appalachian coal mining after control for other disease risk factors. METHODS The study investigated county-level, age-adjusted mortality rates for the years 2000-2004 for heart, respiratory and kidney disease in relation to tons of...
