Clinical Features and Severity Predictors of Pediatric Enterovirus D68 Pneumonia in Southern China
EV-D68-associated pneumonia in hospitalized children in southern China was frequently severe, particularly among those with an atopic background. Routine clinical and laboratory features demonstrated exploratory discriminatory value for disease severity. These findings may assist clinicians in early risk stratification and highlight the need for further multicenter studies.
