Community-acquired pneumonia: pathophysiology and host factors with focus on possible new approaches to management of lower respiratory tract infections.

Infectious disease clinics of North America - 1 Dec 2004

Wunderink Richard G, Waterer Grant W

Abstract excerpt

The present understanding of the pathophysiology of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) explains the mechanism for many specific manifestations, but does not address adequately why only some patients experience complications. Recent advances in under-standing the genetics of complex illnesses offer hope for a more complete insight into the pathogenesis of CAP. This article reviews genetic variation in the...
