Abstract:
Objective:To compare the clinical characteristics and prognosis of children with necrotizing pneumonia (NP) infected by bacteria and Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP). Methods:The clinical data of 69 children with NP from January 2012 to June 2019 in Dalian Central Hospital Affiliated to Dalian Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, there were 27 cases of bacterial infection NP (bacterial infection group) and 42 cases of MP infection NP (MP group). The clinical symptoms and signs, extrapulmonary complications, laboratory examination, imaging examination, treatment, outcome and follow-up were compared between 2 groups.Results:There were no significant differences in the rale rate, respiratory tone reduction rate and total fever time between 2 groups ( P>0.05); the incidence of shortness of breath in bacterial infection group was significantly higher than that in MP group: 77.8% (21/27) vs. 14.3% (6/42), and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01). There were no significant differences in the incidence of extrapulmonary complications between 2 groups ( P>0.05). The white blood cell, C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT) and interleukin (IL) -10 in bacterial infection group were significantly higher than those in MP group, the tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interferon (IFN) -γ in bacterial infection group were significantly lower than those in the MP group, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in neutrophils, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and IL-6 between 2 groups ( P>0.05). The time of necrosis in bacterial infection group was significantly earlier than that in MP group: (14.5 ± 4.2) d vs. (21.7 ± 6.4) d, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05); there was no significant difference in the incidence of pleural effusion between 2 groups ( P>0.05), but the incidence of pleural effusion separation in bacterial infection group was significantly higher than that in MP group: 70.4% (19/27) vs. 2.4% (1/42), and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01). There were no significant differences in antibiotic application time, CRP recovery time and hospital stay between 2 groups ( P>0.05); the oxygen uptake rate and closed thoracic drainage rate in bacterial infection group were significantly higher than those in MP group: 88.9% (24/27) vs. 35.7% (15/42) and 25.9% (7/27) vs. 11.9% (5/42), the recovery times of WBC and PCT in bacterial infection group were significantly longer than that in MP group: (12.8 ± 4.1) d vs. (9.2 ± 2.0) d and (10.5 ± 2.5) d vs. (7.6 ± 1.9) d, the bronchoalveolar lavage rate was significantly higher than that in MP group: 25.9% (7/27) vs. 76.2% (32/42), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01 or <0.05). There was no significant difference in the absorption time of necrotic lesions between 2 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared with MP infection, the clinical process of bacterial infection NP is serious, the necrosis time appears earlier, and the course of disease is longer. However, most of the children with NP can obtain a good prognosis after active symptomatic and antiinfective treatment.
