年龄与肺炎相关的发病率和死亡率之间的关系是复杂的。年龄本身可能不是一个独立的风险因素，因为老年患者的疾病潜在风险因素也随之增加。作者回顾了社区获得性肺炎的临床特征、流行病学和治疗。
The relationship between age and the incidence of and mortality associated with pneumonia is complex. Age itself may not be an independent risk factor, because elderly patients also have a concomitant increase in the number of underlying risk factors for disease. The authors review the clinical features, epidemiology, and treatment of community-acquired pneumonia.
