Among 467 children under five hospitalized with community-acquired pneumonia, the prevalence of Haemophilus influenzae or Haemophilus haemolyticus was 60.8%, all cases were non-typable H. influenzae (NTHi) or H. haemolyticus. NTHi/H. haemolyticus PCR detection was associated with about twice the risk for severe disease. The results highlight the need for increased awareness and research efforts to investigate the role of NTHi/H. haemolyticus in severe CAP among children.
在467名因社区获得性肺炎住院的五岁以下儿童中,流感嗜血杆菌或溶血嗜血杆菌的患病率为60.8%,所有病例均为不可分型流感嗜血杆菌(NTHi)或溶血嗜血杆菌。NTHi/溶血嗜血杆菌PCR检测与严重疾病风险增加约两倍相关。这些结果凸显了提高认识和加大研究力度以调查NTHi/溶血嗜血杆菌在儿童重症社区获得性肺炎中作用的必要性。
