Association between early administration of mucoactive agents and in-hospital mortality in patients with pneumonia requiring mechanical ventilation: a nationwide cohort study

Journal of Intensive Care
Background In patients with pneumonia requiring mechanical ventilation, increased airway secretions are associated with prolonged mechanical ventilation, but the effect of mucoactive agents remains unclear.

Comparison of surgical and non surgical treatment strategies for non metastatic oropharyngeal cancer using inverse probability weighting

Discover Oncology
Objective Surgical (SS) and non-surgical strategies (NSS) are both considered as valid options in the therapeutic management of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) because of the absence of randomized control trial. Method The objective of this

Exposure to the four first-line anti-tuberculosis drugs and treatment outcomes: a target trial emulation study in Ghana

BMC Infectious Diseases
Background Tuberculosis (TB) treatment outcomes in sub-Saharan Africa remain suboptimal despite high adherence to first-line therapy. Variability in drug pharmacokinetics, resulting in subtherapeutic plasma concentrations, may contribute to treatment ...

Effect of prior TB preventive therapy on all-cause mortality during TB treatment among people with HIV/TB in rural eastern Uganda: an observational causal analysis

BMC Infectious Diseases
Background Tuberculosis preventive therapy (TPT) is the cornerstone for preventing TB disease. However, it is uncertain whether prior TPT completion improves survival once TB disease develops in people with human immunodeficiency virus (PWH) while on ...
