Hospitalization for acute coronary syndrome increases the long-term risk of pneumonia: a population-based cohort study

Abstract It is well established that the risk of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) increases after respiratory infection. However, the reverse association has not been evaluated. We tested the hypothesis that the long-term risk of pneumonia is increased after a new ACS event. A matched-cohort study was...
