Respiratory culture and multiplex PCR for Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, and Chlamydophila pneumoniae were applied to sputum, nasopharyngeal swabs, and nasopharyngeal aspirates from 235 adult patients with community-acquired pneumonia and 113 controls. Both culture and multiplex PCR performed well with the different samples and appear to be useful as diagnostic tools.
对235例社区获得性肺炎成年患者和113例对照者的痰液、鼻咽拭子和鼻咽抽吸物进行了肺炎链球菌、流感嗜血杆菌、肺炎支原体和肺炎衣原体的呼吸道培养及多重聚合酶链反应(PCR)检测。培养和多重PCR在不同样本中均表现良好,似乎可作为诊断工具。
