ABSTRACT We have recently described the discovery of a novel coronavirus, coronavirus HKU1 (CoV-HKU1), associated with community-acquired pneumonia. However, clinical spectrum disease and epidemiology CoV-HKU1 infections in relation to other respiratory viruses are unknown. In this 12-month prospective study, 4,181 nasopharyngeal aspirates from patients acute tract were subjected reverse transcription-PCRs specific for human coronaviruses NL63 (HCoV-NL63), OC43 (HCoV-OC43), 229E (HCoV-229E)....

Individuals with age-related eye disease (ARED) need to use care services for detection, assessment, and at regular intervals.To explore the association between socioeconomic position (SEP) of among US adults self-reported ARED during 2002 2008.Data were from National Health Interview Survey 2008. We used multiple logistic regression estimate predictive margins, controlling other factors, we slope index inequality measure relationship SEP across entire distributions poverty-income ratio...
Previous studies using data from the 1980s found relatively little geographic variation in cataract surgery rates across United States. We do not know whether similar patterns hold true today, nor we patient- and community-level factors that might explain any recent variations rate timing of surgery.To assess extent patient age at initial age-standardized a large group insured US patients with cataracts.Retrospective cross-sectional study 1 050 815 beneficiaries older than 40 years cataracts...
