Prediction of risk factors for respiratory failure in children with mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia based on clinical pulmonary infection scores

Background Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) remains a leading cause of community-acquired pneumonia in children, with respiratory failure occurring in 15%–20% of hospitalized cases. Despite advances in understanding MPP pathogenesis, validated tools for early prediction of respiratory failure are lacking. This stu...
