Patients with Pulmonary infections.

You may qualify if:

  • subjects who were seen in calendar year 2004 because they were thought to have CAP, but who, upon further evaluation, plainly did not, and consultation was sought.
  • case control is diagnosis of CAP with verification by all or nearly all of the following features: presence of cough, increased sputum, fever, leukocytosis and a distinct new pulmonary infiltrate.

You may not qualify if:

  • among the case controls, if the diagnosis of CAP was made despite the absence of the cardinal features of CAP, as cited above, the investigators will not include the case.
