Pneumonia as a cardiovascular disease

Abstract: Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is an important cause of death around the globe. Up to 30% of patients admitted to hospital for CAP develop cardiovascular complications (i.e. new/worsening heart failure, new/-worsening arrhythmias, myocardial infarctions and/or strokes), acutely and up to 10 years thereafter. Cardiac complications result from complex interactions between preexisting conditions, relative ischaemia, upregulation of the sympathetic system, systemic inflammation and direct pathogen-mediated dam… Show more

“…In these studies, the best cut-off values of NT-proBNP for prediction 30-day mortality were 1434.5 pg/mL and 1795.5 pg/ mL, respectively [8,10]. The elevated NT-proBNP in these cases was believed owing to the cardiac complications resulted from complex interactions among preexisting conditions, relative ischemia, up-regulation of the sympathetic system, systemic inflammation and direct pathogenmediated damage to the cardiovascular system [11].…”

“…Cardiac thrombosis could be generated locally induced by either exposure to tissue factors following vascular damage,or spontaneously under procoagulant condition secondary to an exaggerated inflammation which stimulated endothelial and mononuclear cells, eventually provoking the coagulation cascade. In addition to clotting activation, systemic coagulation abnormalities also involves suppression of fibrinolysis [8,16,17]. Dehydration , elderly, obesity, basic diseases , long-term bedridden, clinical practice of glucocorticoid and immunoglobulin, invasive operation multifactorial, as previously summarized, were the main risk factors of hyperviscosity, which intensified the coagulation disorder.…”
