Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the long-term mortality rates associated with COVID-19 and community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in patients who were hospitalized and later discharged.
- It utilizes a retrospective analysis of two cohorts, applying Bayesian logistic regression to control for confounding factors while assessing mortality outcomes after one year.
- Findings suggest that both types of pneumonia have comparable long-term mortality rates, with no significant difference after adjustments, indicating a low probability of distinguishing between them based on mortality risk.
We report the case of a 50-year-old female smoker with an 11-year history of seropositive rheumatoid arthritis (rheumatoid factor and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies) receiving triple therapy. She developed pulmonary nodules diagnosed as Langerhans cell histiocytosis by lung biopsy. We found no reported cases of the coexistence of these two diseases.
