“…In the present study the peritonitis-related mortality rate was 5.7% and older age was the only risk factor for death. This is in agreement with previous studies, and the immune dysfunction related to aging is likely an important causative factor (1,15,23,24). Nevertheless, the severity of medical disease observed in these patients, as well as possible residual confounders, must also be taken into account when trying to explain the association of collagenosis and peritonitisrelated mortality.…”

Gejala dan tanda pneumonia yang khas sering tidak didapatkan pada pasien usia lanjut.…”
