Abstract
BACKGROUND:RSV is a leading cause of ARI, including CAP, in older adults. Data available often underestimate RSV-related ARI incidence. We estimated RSV-related ARI hospitalization incidence from a prospective CAP study, adjusting for undiagnosed RSV infections due to nasopharyngeal/nasal swab testing only. METHODS:Active surveillance of adult CAP hospitalizations in Germany was conducted between 2021-2023. Nasopharyngeal/nasal swabs were RSV-tested, and age-group specific proportions were applied to calculate RSV-related CAP incidence. This was divided by the CAP proportions among RSV-related ARI hospitalizations (from multispecimen study) to extrapolate RSV-related ARI rates. RESULTS:Among 1040 radiologically confirmed CAP cases, 3.7% tested RSV-positive via nasopharyngeal/nasal swab, corresponding to 7.8% after adjusting for underdetection. For 18-59 and ≥60 years, adjusted RSV-related CAP hospitalization rates (95% CI) were 4.9 (1.8-10.9) and 115.6 (78.8-163.6); adjusted RSV-related ARI hospitalization rates were 19.8 (6.8-50.1) and 401.6 (260.7-609.3) per 100,000, respectively. Within 30 days of an RSV-related CAP admission, 18.2% of those ≥65 years died, and 11.1% and 36.4% had cardiovascular events among those 18-64 and ≥65 years, respectively. CONCLUSIONS:Older adults in Germany experience a high burden of RSV-related ARI hospitalizations, including CAP, underscoring RSV vaccination's potential utility for this population.

- 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
