Clinical characteristics and risk factor analysis of children with severe Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia complicated by plastic bronchitis
This study confirms that fever duration, LDH levels, and unilateral lung involvement serve as independent risk factors for PB complicating SMPP in children. By integrating a multidimensional assessment system encompassing clinical manifestations, laboratory parameters, and imaging characteristics, the established model facilitates early identification of PB risk, providing a critical time window for clinical intervention.
