Clinical Characteristics of Lung Consolidation with Mycoplasma pneumoniae Pneumonia and Risk Factors for Mycoplasma pneumoniae Necrotizing Pneumonia in Children

Abstract Introduction Mycoplasma pneumoniae necrotizing pneumonia (MPNP) is an uncommon but increasingly recognized severe complication of pneumonia, and the delayed diagnosis and treatment are prone to pulmonary sequelae. The aim of this study is to explore independent risk factors for MPNP in chil...

description Abstract Introduction Mycoplasma pneumoniae necrotizing pneumonia (MPNP) is an uncommon but increasingly recognized severe complication of pneumonia, and the delayed diagnosis and treatment are prone to pulmonary sequelae. The aim of this study is to explore independent risk factors for MPNP in children with lung consolidation. Methods A retrospective observational study was conducted on 118 children with MPNP (MPNP group) and 184 children with lung consolidation of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) (control group) admitted to Children’s Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from June 2018 to August 2023. Clinical manifestations and laboratory data were analyzed and the independent risk factors for MPNP in children were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression. Results The age of onset, hospitalization days, fever days, proportion of dyspnea, chest pain, complications, and need for fiberoptic bronchoscopic alveolar lavage (FBAL) were higher than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The levels of white blood cells (WBC), platelets, neutrophil percentage (N%), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), C-reactive protein (CRP), fibrinogen (Fbg), D-dimer (D-D), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), alanine transaminase (ALT), γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (γ-GGT), globulin, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), α-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (α-HBDH), urea, immunoglobulin G (IgG), immunoglobulin M (IgM), immunoglobulin A (IgA), complement component 3, antistreptolysin O (ASO), serum ferritin, and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in the MPNP group were higher than those in the control group. Red blood cell (RBC), lymphocyte percentage (L%), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total protein, albumin, albumin-to-globulin ratio (AGR), creatine kinase (CK), uric acid, natrium, chlorine, calcium, and complement C4 in the MPNP group were lower than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age ≥ 83.50 months, fever days ≥ 10.50, ALT ≥ 15.25 U/l, IgM ≥ 1.46 g/l, complement C3 ≥ 1.47 g/l, Fbg ≥ 3.93 g/l, dyspnea and needing FBAL were independent risk factors for MPNP in children. Conclusions Age, fever days, ALT, IgM, complement C3, Fbg, dyspnea, and needing FBAL were independent risk factors for MPNP in children. For children suspected of MPNP, pediatricians should pay close attention to the above indicators, strive for early diagnosis and treatment, and improve prognosis.
