Abstract:
Objective
To analyze the influence of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection on the acute attack of bronchial asthma in children.
Methods
A total of 54 patients with acute exacerbation of bronchial asthma and Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection in our hospital were included as the experimental group. Another 54 children with respiratory tract infection were used as the control group. After the treatment, serum mycoplasma antibodies(MP-IgM), serum IgE, and peripheral eosinophilic granulocyte markers were detected in both groups.
Results
Compared with the control group, the positive rate of MPIgM in the experimental group was significantly increased(11.1%,6/54) with significant difference(P<0.05). The level of serum IgE and positive EOS counts were significantly higher in the MP-IgM positive group than in the negative group(P<0.05).
Conclusion
There is a close relationship between Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection and pediatric bronchial asthma. Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection can induce bronchial asthma and exacerbate the symptoms of children. Strengthening pediatric bronchial asthma examination and detecting related indicators can help to effectively make an early   diagnosis and has a wide range of clinical and is worth further promotion.
