Risk factors for identifying pneumocystis pneumonia in pediatric patients
Dyspnea, body temperature>36.5°C, and age<1.46 years old were found to be independent risk factors for PCP in pediatric patients. The probability of co-infection with cytomegalovirus and <i>S. pneumoniae</i> in the PCP group was significantly higher than that in the non-PCP group.
