Clinical profiles of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia in children with different pleural effusion patterns: a retrospective study
The presence of MP in pleural fluid in MPP children with pleural effusion indicated a more serious clinical course. D-dimer > 7.33 mg/L was a related factor for MP positive pleural effusion in MPP. The results of the present study would help in the creation of a therapeutic plan and prediction of the clinical course of MPP in children.
