Effect of Macrolide Resistance and Mycoplasma pneumoniae DNA Load in Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid on Immune and Inflammatory Responses in Children with Mycoplasma pneumoniae Pneumonia
Macrolide resistance and high pathogen load are associated with enhanced airway inflammation and immune dysregulation in children with MPP. Early detection of resistance and quantification of pathogen load may guide timely antibiotic adjustment and improve clinical outcomes.
