Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To discuss the infection conditions of Mycoplasma pneumoniae(MP),Chlamydia pneumoniae(CP),Ureaplasma urealyticum(Uu),and Chlamydia trachomatis(CT) in the respiratory tracts of neonatal infants,and that of MP and CP among the infected children.METHODS Detecting MP,CP,Uu and CT in sputa of neonatal infants and MP and CP in throat swabs of children by the fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(FQ-PCR).RESULTS The positive rate of MP was 54.2%,4.9% and 10.0%(P0.05) in premature infants and term neonatal infants.CONCLUSIONS Infection rate of MP in premature infants is obviously higher than in term neonatal infants.The infection of CP is negative in all specimens.Infection rate of Uu in premature infants is higher than in term neonatal infants.Infection rate of CT has no statistical difference between premature infants and term neonatal infants.
