Pneumonia is a former featured article. Please see the links under Article milestones below for its original nomination page (for older articles, check the nomination archive) and why it was removed. Pneumonia has been listed as one of the Natural sciences good articles under the good article criteria. If you can improve it further, please do so. If it no longer meets these criteria, you can reassess it. This article appeared on Misplaced Pages's Main Page as Today's featured article on December 4, 2005.

Ideal sources for Misplaced Pages's health content are defined in the guideline Misplaced Pages:Identifying reliable sources (medicine) and are typically review articles. Here are links to possibly useful sources of information about Pneumonia. PubMed provides review articles from the past five years (limit to free review articles) The TRIP database provides clinical publications about evidence-based medicine. Other potential sources include: Centre for Reviews and Dissemination and CDC

Links about Coronavirus as cause

at link 11 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21435708/

It says that infections comes together bacterial and viral. But on virus infection, it gives feel like, viruses can cause pneumonia.

"Dual viral infections are common, and a third of children have evidence of viral-bacterial co-infection. In adults, viruses are the putative causative agents in a third of cases of community-acquired pneumonia, in particular influenza viruses, rhinoviruses, and coronaviruses. Bacteria continue to have a predominant role in adults with pneumonia."

On page, there are no clear understanding of a thing. The last sentence says, the bacterial infections are dominant.

Nowdays, because of "corona pandemic" maybe not. I tend not to believe for governments, because of lack pictures of the virus in public domain. Today EM microscopes can easily make resolution of 0.1 nm, what about some virus that 100 nm?

It should be checked twice links. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:A040:198:313F:9495:E07C:68C3:D47D (talk) 02:14, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

I'm not entirely sure what you are asking, but bacteria are the most common cause of Pneumonia in general. In infants and toddlers, RSV is generally the most common cause. The link you provided isn't contradicting itself. Dual infections often happen with viral infections leading to a bacterial infection as well. I'm not sure if that is what you are confused about?

Limitations on diagnosis

Mikalra added the Jain 2015 NEJM study which showed the limitations of advanced diagnostics in determining the aetiology of CAP (doi:10.1056/NEJMoa1500245). This study, while groundbreaking, does not comply with WP:MEDRS. Currently the observation on this problem is cited in the body of the article to a source called EBMED05, which is now 15 years old and should be updated in line with MEDRS.

Oddly the updated ATS guideline does not discuss the poor yield of investigations, but the Jain study is cited in doi:10.1097/MCP.0000000000000671. I'm sure this would be a good alternative to EBMED05 for this information as well as some other bits. JFW | T@lk 14:47, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

This study didn't use 'advanced diagnostics,' but routine laboratory diagnostics such as PCR and urinary antigen testing. You're right that "the observation on this problem is cited in the body of the article to a source called EBMED05;" the Jain study is an example of that problem and is a large and relatively recent report in institutions equipped to address the question.Mikalra (talk) 15:54, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

For many healthcare settings, the diagnostics used in Jain2015 were definitely "advanced". In the UK the viral PCR panel in pneumonia only includes influenza and RSV unless the host is immunocompromised. JFW | T@lk 15:01, 2 September 2020 (UTC)

@Mikalra: The Jain 2015 reference is not an appropriate source, so it has been removed again. Please review WP:MEDRS for explanation. JFW | T@lk 11:13, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 21 November 2020

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

I would like to enhance this page's coverage of the robustly established relationship between SARS-CoV-2 and pneumonia.

Change "Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) can also result in pneumonia."

to

"Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) can also result in pneumonia. The virus infects and destroys the cells of the alveoli, both those that are ciliated and those that produce mucus and surfactant . Because the cilia cannot function properly, fluid and cellular debris accumulate in the alveoli, which can cause pneumonia . Teddymhill (talk) 02:06, 21 November 2020 (UTC)

This can only be supported with very high quality references. A newspaper article would not be sufficient, nor an animal study. The pathogenesis is probably more complicated than you have indicated: there is diffuse alveolar damage and immunothrombosis. Hence not supporting this addition at this time.

Please harmonize the internal contradiction about the cause of pneumonia

In the Cause section you cite #28 Jain 2015, a paper which puts viruses well ahead of bacteria in causing pneumonia. Later, in the Bacteria section you state that "Bacteria are the most common cause" with a different reference (#35 Sharma 2007), putting a direct contradiction into this article, just a few lines apart. It's also problematic that the latter is just a review pointing somewhere else - like in the children's telephone game. The former reference is better and an actual research publication. It would be great if somebody rewrote both section to remove or qualify this contradiction and make the article better. JS

PS: Just as in the telephone game the numbers have been misquoted. It says "20% haemophilus" but it was 20 cases or 7% in the original paper!

C-AMP Overhang on massive Cellular Decay

During and after massive Cellular Decays, like Poly Tissue Shock Syndrome by Street Violence, not only Potassium is released, even internal metabolic Product of Cell floods the Liquid Flow System of the Body, like Blood Veines and Lymphatics Howl Veines.

Pneumonia has very aggressive and high Rate of Immune represented Decay, since Lungs are Oxygen rich, and can regrowth Cells fast.

Downside is an tremendous flooding with intra cellular Apoptosis caused cAMP, in Conjunction with chronicle infections of the Intestinium with EF Plasmoid bearing Micro Organisms, which splits ADP and ATP to Cyclic Adenosin Monophosphate, whole Body changes into an Wound Compartment Like Edema swell State(Bleeding suppression on Injuries), what had to reduce immediately , even under risk of Bleeding.

Simplest Method on Rough Conditions is souring Cabbage to Bitter State, Lacto-bacilla forcing themself to reduce Lacto-acid Production to not demise on self over acidasis, by expression of PhospoEsterase, not same only similar to body own.

P.ase is simple to Store and to handle, can produces everywhere, alcoholics can bear it as well as Dry Pills.

This hits 9 of 10 Deads on Pneumonia or Rickettia mountain Spotted fever, which expressed (EF).

Natural Sources are Cherry living bark, causing more Bleeding when Wounds came i Contact with fresh Cherry Resins. or daggers are sweeped with it, if victims not die, wound heals faster to less infections by higher selfcleening by Blood.

Bleedings can controlled by washing an recycle drainaged Haemo-Blood-Bodies from Liquids. or use an synthetic Silica Substitude if at hand,.. sry is classified to warhungry monogodisher. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2003:E1:E722:19FD:429B:CB0A:AF67:B1D7 (talk) 09:29, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
