Abstract
Background: Ventilator-associated pneumonia is a common complication of traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients, causing great harm to the life, health and society of patients. It is important to understand the risk factors related to ventilator-associated pneumonia for infection monitoring and control of patients. However, there are still some controversies about the risk factors in previous studies. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to explore the incidence and risk factors of ventilator-associated pneumonia in patients with TBI. Methods: Two independent researchers selected literature collected by systematically searching databases including PubMed, Ovid, Embase, and ScienceDirect using medical subject headings. The primary end points of the included literature were extracted, and the Cochrane Q test and I-2 statistic were used to evaluate the heterogeneity between studies. The random effects model based on the restricted maximum likelihood method and the fixed effects model based on the reverse variance method were used to calculate and combine the relative risk or mean difference of relevant indicators. The publication bias was evaluated with the funnel plot and Egger test. All results were considered statistically significant at P<0.05. Results: A total of 11 articles were included in this study for meta-analysis, and a total of 2,301 patients with TBI were included. The incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia in TBI patients was approximately 42% (95% CI: 32-53%). Tracheotomy significantly increased the risk of ventilator-associated pneumonia in patients with TBI [relative risk (RR) =3.71; 95% CI: 1.48-6.94; P<0.05]; the use of prophylactic antibiotics could significantly reduce the risk of ventilator-associated pneumonia in patients with TBI. The risk of pneumonia (RR =0.53; 95% CI: 0.18-0.88; P<0.05); compared with female patients, male patients with TBI had a significantly higher risk (about 46%) of ventilator-associated pneumonia (RR =1.46; 95% CI: 1.13-1.79; P<0.05). Conclusions: The risk of ventilator-associated pneumonia in patients with TBI is about 42%. Posttracheotomy and mechanical ventilation are risk factors for ventilator-associated pneumonia, while prophylactic use of antibiotics is a protective factor in the development of ventilator-associated pneumonia.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
