Rationale: Current guidelines recommend patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pneumonia receive empirical antibiotics for suspected bacterial superinfection on the basis of weak evidence. Rates ventilator-associated (VAP) in clinical trials SARS-CoV-2 are unexpectedly low. Objectives: We conducted an observational single-center study to determine prevalence and etiology at time initial intubation incidence subsequent VAP pneumonia. Methods: Bronchoscopic...
Computed tomography (CT) imaging complements spirometry and may provide insight into racial disparities in respiratory health.
Abstract Despite the wide effects of cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) on metabolic, cardiovascular, pulmonary and neurological health, challenges in feasibility reproducibility CRF measurements have impeded its use for clinical decision-making. Here we link proteomic profiles to 14,145 individuals across four international cohorts with diverse ascertainment methods establish, validate characterize a score. In cohort around 22,000 UK Biobank, score was associated reduced risk all-cause...
Quantitative interstitial abnormalities (QIAs) are early measures of lung injury automatically detected on chest computed tomography scans. QIAs associated with impaired respiratory health and share features advanced diseases, but their biological underpinnings not well understood.
Current genetic discovery methods are largely restricted to profiling circulating molecules or architecture, limited in use of tissue-based molecular genetics identify pathogenic and therapeutic targets. Here, we leverage a multi-level platform integrating population-level proteomics with functional genomic analyses based on human coronary artery tissue reveal determinants disease susceptibility. Using aptamer-based (~7,000 aptamers) across ~3,000 individuals, first identified the proteome...
Introduction Visually normal areas of the lung with high attenuation on computed tomography (CT) imaging, termed CT injury, may represent injured but not yet remodelled parenchyma. This prospective cohort study examined if injury is associated future interstitial features and restrictive spirometry abnormality among participants from Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) study. Methods CARDIA a population-based scans obtained at two time points were assessed objectively...
Accelerated decline in lung function is associated with incident COPD, hospitalizations and death. However, identifying this trajectory longitudinal spirometry measurements challenging clinical practice.
Abstract Objectives Critical illness reduces β-lactam pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) attainment. We sought to quantify PK/PD attainment in patients with hospital-acquired pneumonia. Methods Meropenem plasma PK data (n = 70 patients) were modelled, rates calculated for empirical and definitive targets, between-patient variability was quantified [as a coefficient of variation (CV%)]. Results Attainment 100% T>4×MIC variable both (CV% 92) directed 33%) treatment. Conclusions...
