| PubMedID- 24040043 | In logistic regression analysis, after adjusting for potential confounders, such as vomiting, abnormal mental status, and systolic hypotension (<70 mm of hg) in absence of dehydration, fatal cases of severely malnourished under-five children with pneumonia were more often hypoxemic (or = 23.15, 95% ci = 4.38–122.42), had clinical dehydration (some/severe) (or = 9.48, 95% ci = 2.42–37.19), abdominal distension at admission (or = 4.41, 95% ci = 1.12–16.52), and received blood transfusion (or = 5.50, 95% ci = 1.21–24.99) for the management of crystalloid resistant systolic hypotension. |
