Abstract
Objectives: To study the characteristics of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) microbial distribution at different stages of refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (RMPP) in children and its relationship with immune function.
Methods: A total of 108 children with RMPP were enrolled. The relative abundance, richness, and diversity of BALF microbiota, as well as immune function, were compared between the acute phase (n=61) and recovery phase (n=47). The correlations between the richness and diversity of BALF microbiota and immune function were analyzed.
Results: The relative abundance of Propionibacterium, as well as the Simpson index, Shannon index, Chao1 index, and Observed species index of BALF microbiota in the acute phase were significantly lower than those in the recovery phase (P<0.05). The relative abundances of Streptococcus and Prevotella, as well as the levels of complement C3, complement C4, immunoglobulin A (IgA), immunoglobulin G (IgG), and immunoglobulin M (IgM), were significantly higher in the acute phase than in the recovery phase (P<0.05). Simpson, Shannon, Chao1, and Observed species indices were negatively correlated with levels of complement C3, complement C4, IgA, IgM, and IgG (P<0.05).
Conclusions: In children with RMPP, the relative abundance of Propionibacterium and the richness and diversity of BALF microbiota in the acute phase are lower than those in the recovery phase, while the relative abundances of Streptococcus and Prevotella are higher in the acute phase. Microbial richness and diversity are closely related to immune function.

期刊介绍：
The Chinese Journal of Contemporary Pediatrics (CJCP) is a peer-reviewed open access periodical in the field of pediatrics that is sponsored by the Central South University/Xiangya Hospital of Central South University and under the auspices of the Ministry of Education of China. It is cited as a source in the scientific and technological papers of Chinese journals, the Chinese Science Citation Database (CSCD), and is one of the core Chinese periodicals in the Peking University Library. CJCP has been indexed by MEDLINE/PubMed/PMC of the American National Library, American Chemical Abstracts (CA), Holland Medical Abstracts (EM), Western Pacific Region Index Medicus (WPRIM), Scopus and EBSCO. It is a monthly periodical published on the 15th of every month, and is distributed both at home and overseas. The Chinese series publication number is CN 43-1301/R；ISSN 1008-8830. The tenet of CJCP is to “reflect the latest advances and be open to the world”. The periodical reports the most recent advances in the contemporary pediatric field. The majority of the readership is pediatric doctors and researchers.
