Demographic and clinical predictors of mortality from highly pathogenic avian influenza A (H5N1) virus infection: CART analysis of international cases.
The researchers for this international study sought to model individuals at highest risk of mortality from HPAI N5N1 virus infection in order to inform preventive and therapeutic interventions. They found that age, health expenditure, delay from symptom onset to hospitalization and country are significant predictors of mortality.
