An Attention Model With Transfer Embeddings to Classify Pneumonia-Related Bilingual Imaging Reports: Algorithm Development and Validation

An Attention Model With Transfer Embeddings to Classify Pneumonia-Related Bilingual Imaging Reports: Algorithm Development and Validation

Usually, the pneumonia incidence in surgical patients is around 1%, suggesting that reports of pneumonia are rare. To overcome the imbalance of the positive and negative data sets, we only included radiologic reports that contained pneumonia-related words. The words representing pneumonia were as follows: “pneumoni-,” “consolid-,” “infiltra-,” “bronchiole-,” “hazi-,” “hazzi-,” “opacit-,” and “GGO”.

Health Effects Associated With Electronic Cigarette Use: Automated Mining of Online Forums

Health Effects Associated With Electronic Cigarette Use: Automated Mining of Online Forums

In the respiratory system, the most common disorders were asthma (n=916), chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD; n=471), pneumonia (n=367), and bronchitis (n=232; Figure 5). In mouth and throat, the most common disorders were pharyngitis (n=565), aptyalism (n=377), and ulcer of mouth (n=207). The most reported disorders in the neurological system were dehydration (n=403) and migraine (n=103).

Determining the Cause of Death Among Children Hospitalized With Respiratory Illness in Kenya: Protocol for Pediatric Respiratory Etiology Surveillance Study (PRESS)

Determining the Cause of Death Among Children Hospitalized With Respiratory Illness in Kenya: Protocol for Pediatric Respiratory Etiology Surveillance Study (PRESS)

Pneumonia is a leading cause of death among children aged Postmortem examination and laboratory testing of tissue specimens can aid in improving the ascertainment of causes of death [9]. However, few clinical postmortem examinations are currently performed [10], especially in sub-Saharan Africa where the respiratory disease burden is the highest [11]; this is partly attributed to a lack of resources and inadequate technical capacity to perform detailed postmortem examinations.

Prediction of COVID-19 Infections for Municipalities in the Netherlands: Algorithm Development and Interpretation

Prediction of COVID-19 Infections for Municipalities in the Netherlands: Algorithm Development and Interpretation

In some cases, the virus causes severe complications such as pneumonia and dyspnea and can result in death. In a retrospective study among critically ill patients with COVID-19 admitted to intensive care units in Italy, both the mortality rate and absolute mortality were high [4]. At the end of February 2020, the first COVID-19 case in the Netherlands was confirmed. In June 2020, 46,000 cases had been identified. On May 9, 2021, 1,406,517 infections were confirmed [5].

Efficacy and Safety of Direct Hemoperfusion Using Polymyxin B-Immobilized Polystyrene Column for Patients With COVID-19: Protocol for an Exploratory Study

Efficacy and Safety of Direct Hemoperfusion Using Polymyxin B-Immobilized Polystyrene Column for Patients With COVID-19: Protocol for an Exploratory Study

In terms of treatment results, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), which has been the subject of previous clinical studies, is the most common idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (accounts for about 50% of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia worldwide) and has a chronic and progressive course. Once advanced fibrosis progresses, irreversible honeycombing occurs, leading to an extremely poor prognosis [5,6]. The total number of Japanese patients with IPF is estimated to be at least around 10,000 [7].

Metagenomics in the Diagnosis of Pneumonia: Protocol for a Systematic Review

Metagenomics in the Diagnosis of Pneumonia: Protocol for a Systematic Review

The diagnosis of pneumonia is not pathogen specific, encompassing a range of infections by varied bacterial, viral, and fungal causes [5]. Prognoses and optimal treatments vary depending on the causative organism, and the likely pathogens change depending on the setting in which infection occurs, with pneumonia usually categorized into community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP), or ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP).

The VICTORY (Investigation of Inflammacheck to Measure Exhaled Breath Condensate Hydrogen Peroxide in Respiratory Conditions) Study: Protocol for a Cross-sectional Observational Study

The current breathing devices to measure the levels of inflammation focus on eosinophilic rather than neutrophilic inflammation, which is the predominant phenotype in COPD, bronchiectasis, steroid-resistant asthma, and pneumonia. Prolonged exposure to toxic irritants has been implicated in airway inflammation in lung cancer [19]. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is an umbrella term for lung diseases characterized by fibrosis, which can occur as a result of chronic inflammation, remodeling, and repair [20].
