Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) infection and its genotyping in children with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), as well as macrolide resistance and gene mutation genotyping, in order to provide evidence for the prevention and treatment of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) in children.Methods:MP positive cases in 620 hospitalized children at Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Sanshui District, Foshan City with CAP were detected.P1-RFLP genotyping was performed for the MP positive cases.The distribution of the MP positive, type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ in different years and different genders, ages as well as seasons were analyzed.The mutations of macrolide resistance genes in MP were detected.The differences of A2063G and A2064G mutations of the drug-resistant mutant gene in each year, gender, age and season were analyzed.Results:Among 620 children with CAP, 198 were MP positive, and the infection rate was 31.94%.There was little difference among the years.The infection rate was higher in female than that in male.The infection rate gradually increased with the increase of age, and the highest infection rates were found in pre-school age and school age.The infection rates in summer and autumn were significantly higher than those in spring and winter.Among 198 children, P1-RFLP classification showed that 157 (79.29%) cases were P1-Ⅰ and 41 (20.71%) cases were P1-Ⅱ.There was no significant difference in the distribution of type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ in each year, gender, age as well as season.A total of 143 cases were tested for mutation of macrolide resistance gene, in 125 of them, MP gene mutation resulted in drug resistance, and the overall drug resistance rate was 87.41%.MP gene mutation led to drug resistance in 125 children, 66 (52.80%) cases had A2063G mutation and 53 (42.40%) cases had A2064G mutation.There was no significant difference between two types in each year, gender, age and season.Conclusion:MP infection rate of CAP among children in our hospital is 31.94%, and is more common in femal, and the infection rates are highest in pre-school age and school age, with summer and autumn as the season of high incidence.The P1-RFLP typing showes no significant differences among the years, genders, ages and seasons.The drug resistance gene mutation among children is high.Time, gender, age and season does not affect drug resistance gene mutation.
