Correction to

Following publication of the original article [1], the authors identified an error in the Abstract and Results section. The correct numbers and text are given hereafter. Abstract VAP was associated with significantly higher risk for 28-day mortality in SARS-CoV-2 group (adjusted HR 1.65 (95% CI 1.11–2.46), p = 0.013), but not in influenza (1.74 (0.99–3.06), p = 0.052), or no viral infection groups (1.13 (0.68–1...

Soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor for the prediction of ventilat...

Introduction: Diagnosing ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) remains challenging. Soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) has prognostic value in critically ill patients with systemic infection. We hypothesised that plasma suPAR levels accurately predict development of VAP. Methods: This observational, multicentre, prospective cohort study compared patients at risk for VAP with a control grou...
