Pemphigus includes three major forms: pemphigus vulgaris (PV), pemphigus foliaceus, and paraneoplastic pemphigus. Before the advent of systemic corticosteroids (SCSs), pemphigus was usually a fatal disease. Rituximab (RTX), a monoclonal antibody against the CD20+B cells has been approved for the treatment of patients with pemphigus. Previous studies have confirmed the high efficacy and safety profile of RTX in pemphigus patients. We aimed to estimate the overall mortality and causes of death among pemphigus patients who were admitted to the hospitals of Shahid Beheshti University of medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran, before and after administering RTX.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>We included 480 patients admitted to Shahid Beheshti University of medical Sciences hospitals, Tehran, Iran, from October 2010 to October 2022. The diagnosis of all patients was confirmed by direct immunofluorescence and pathological studies.

The COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated the prevalence of these infections, with pathogens such as <i>Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Legionella pneumophila, Staphylococcus aureus, Haemophilus influenzae,</i> and <i>Klebsiella species</i> commonly implicated in pediatric cases. The critical need for accurate and timely detection of these bacterial agents has highlighted the importance of advanced diagnostic techniques, including multiplex real-time PCR, in clinical practice. Multiplex real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) offers several advantages, including rapid results, high sensitivity, and specificity. By accelerating the diagnostic process, this approach enables early intervention and targeted treatment, ultimately improving patient outcomes. In addition to PCR technologies, rapid and point-of-care testing (POCT) play a crucial role in the prompt diagnosis of bacterial respiratory infections. These tests are designed to be user-friendly, sensitive, and deliver quick results, making them particularly valuable in urgent clinical settings. POCT tests are often categorized into two main groups: those aimed at determining the cause of infection and those focused on confirming the presence of specific pathogens. By utilizing POCT, healthcare providers can make rapid and informed treatment decisions, leading to more effective management of bacterial respiratory infections in children. As the medical community continues to explore innovative diagnostic approaches, the integration of molecular and rapid testing methods offers significant promise in the realm of bacterial respiratory infections.
