Abstract:
Objective:To compare the clinical characteristics of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia and adenoviral pneumonia in children. Methods:Clinical data of 151 children with pneumonia admitted to our hospital from January 2019 to June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed, including 106 cases of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MP group) and 45 cases of adenoviral pneumonia (ADV group). The general conditions, clinical manifestations, laboratory results, pulmonary imaging, proportion of severe cases, respiratory support style and length of hospital stay were compared between two groups. Results:The MP group had shorter fever time compared to the ADV group ( t=15.910, P<0.01); and the maximum temperature in the MP group was lower than the ADV group ( Z=3.561, P<0.01). In the comparison of shortness of breath, wet rales in the lungs, tri-concave sign, hypoxemia, the differences were all significant between two groups (χ 2=11.203, 6.807, 36.746, 21.177, all P<0.01). The WBC in the MP group was lower than that in the ADV group ( t=33.960, P<0.01); the PCT, IL-6, LDH and 25-(OH) D 3 levels in the MP group were lower than those in the ADV group ( Z=5.986, 3.146, 4.203, 2.094, all P<0.05); while there was no significant difference in CRP levels between two groups ( Z=1.360, P>0.05). Pulmonary imaging in the MP group mainly involved unilateral lung, and the ADV group mainly involved bilateral lungs (χ 2=27.055, P<0.01). There was no significant difference in pulmonary patchy exudation between two groups(χ 2=0.298, P>0.05). There were 30 patients (28.3%) with severe pneumonia in MP group and 33 patients (73.3%) in the ADV group ( t=26.345, P<0.01). Twelve patients (11.3%) in the MP group were given non-invasive respiratory support, 1 patient (0.9%) was given invasive respiratory support; while 31 patients (68.9%) were given non-invasive respiratory support in the ADV group, and 5 patients (11.1%) were given invasive respiratory support (χ 2=66.439, P<0.01). The MP group had shorter hospital stays than ADV group ( t=31.014, P<0.01). Conclusion:The conditions of disease are more severe, and length of hospital stay is longer in children with adenoviral pneumonia than those with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia.
