Objective Multi-morbidity contributes to mortality and hospitalisation in COPD, but it is uncertain how this interacts with disease severity risk prediction. We compared contributions of multi-morbidity factors modelling future health using UK primary care healthcare data. Methods Health records from 103,955 patients COPD identified the Clinical Practice Research Datalink were analysed. area un...

conclusions although very rare, mdr miliary tb can be seen in immunocompetent subjects. we, thereby, emphasize that early recognition and initiation of treatment are associated with a significant improvement in outcomes. tuberculosis remains a serious worldwide health problem associated with high morbidity and mortality. case presentation our case was a young female patient with in vitro fertil...

there is a new technique to measure total body water named bio-electrical impedance analysis (bia), used in healthy subjects and patients. bia determines the total body water (tbw), fat-free mass (ffm), body cell mass (bcm), extra cellular water (ecw), and intra cellular water (icw) in subjects without significant fluid and electrolyte imbalance. there are several methods such as segmental bia,...
