Epidemiological trends and serological profiles of respiratory pathogens in Guangzhou: an 11-year retrospective study from 2013 to 2023
This comprehensive study provides crucial insights into the changing landscape of respiratory pathogen infections in Guangzhou over an 11-year period. The predominance of MP, particularly among school-age children and females, highlights the need for targeted interventions. The unexpected coagulation profiles in confirmed infections suggest complex pathophysiological mechanisms that warrant further investigation. These findings have important implications for clinical management, diagnostic approaches, and public health strategies in urban settings.
