The introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCV7 and PCV13) in children has led to a change in the pattern of pneumococcal serotypes causing pneumococcal disease in adults. The aim of this study is to analyze the distribution of pneumococcal serotypes in adults with bacteremic pneumococcal community-acquired pneumonia (BPP) after the introduction of PCVs in childhood, and the impact of age and comorbidity on this distribution. We conducted an observational study of all adults hospitalized with BPP between 2001 and 2014, in two tertiary hospitals.

Background: Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a major public health problem with high short- and long-term mortality. The main aim of this study was to develop and validate a specific prognostic index for one-year mortality in patients admitted for CAP.
Methods: This was an observational, prospective study of adults aged ≥18 years admitted to Galdakao-Usansolo Hospital (Bizkaia, Spain) from January 2001 to July 2009 with a diagnosis of CAP surviving the first 15 days.
Background And Objective: There are no structural abnormalities in functional dyspepsia, therefore it is essential to have a viable questionnaire to measure treatment outcome according to patient perception. The aim of the study was to extensively document psychometric characteristics of the Glasgow Dyspepsia Severity Score and the Dyspepsia-Related Health Scale that are currently available in Spanish.
Methods: Patients with functional dyspepsia (n = 158) were recruited from a randomized trial that assessed standard vs.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the long-term emotional challenges faced by caregivers of patients with eating disorders, specifically focusing on changes in their anxiety and depression over one year.
- At the start of the study, a significant number of caregivers reported anxiety (56%) and depression (32%), with their levels remaining largely unchanged after a year.
- Key factors influencing anxiety and depression changes included the initial levels of these conditions and the type of eating disorder the patient had, particularly restrictive types.
- The results highlight the ongoing emotional struggles of caregivers, suggesting a need for enhanced support and treatment options for them.
