The Global Burden of Community-Acquired Pneumonia, Encompassing Invasive Pneumococcal Disease and the Prevalence of Its Associated Cardiovascular Events, With a Focus on Pneumolysin and Macrolide Antibiotics in Pathogenesis and Therapy

2023-05-30

Abstract excerpt

Despite innovative advances in anti-infective therapies and vaccine development technologies, community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) remains the most persistent cause of infection-related mortality globally. Confronting the ongoing threat posed by Streptococcus pneumoniae (the pneumococcus), the most common bacterial cause of CAP, particularly to the non-immune elderly, remains challenging due to the propensity of the...
