Impact of invasive and noninvasive pneumococcal diseases on adult populations: risk factors and vaccination status
Pneumococcal infections continue to impose a significant health burden, particularly among older adults and those with pre-existing conditions. Our findings highlight the critical role of comorbidities and intensive care unit admissions in affecting patient outcomes, stressing the importance of timely interventions and enhanced health strategies to improve vaccination rates and overall outcomes in high-risk populations.
