Community acquired pneumonia in Malaysia: Is Streptococcus pneumoniae an important pathogen?

Previous data on etiological agents isolated from adult patients with community acquired pneumonia (CAP) in Malaysia has showed very low percentage of Streptococcus pneumoniae. Thus, we used immunochromatography test (ICT) and real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in addition to conventional cul...
