A comparison of demographic, epidemiological and clinical characteristics of hospital influenza-related viral pneumonia patients.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Through the comparison of the demographic, epidemiological, and clinical characteristics of hospital human influenza (influenza A (H1N1) pdm09, H3N2, and B)-related and hospitalized avian-origin influenza A (H7N9)-related viral pneumonia patients, find the different between them.

Methods

A retrospective study was conducted in hospitalized influenza-related viral pneumonia patients.

Results

Human influenza A-related patients in the 35-49-year-old group were more than those with B pneumonia patients (p = 0.027), and relatively less in the ≥ 65-year-old group than B pneumonia patients (p = 0.079). The proportion of comorbid condition to human influenza A pneumonia was 58%, lower than B pneumonia and H7N9 pneumonia patients (78% vs. 77.8%; p = 0.013). The propo
