Background: In China many respiratory pathogens stayed low activities amid the COVID-19 pandemic due to strict measures and controls. We here aimed to study the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of pediatric inpatients with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) after the mandatory COVID-19 restrictions were lifted, in comparison to those before the COVID-19 pandemic.
Methods: We here included 4,296 pediatric patients with MPP, hospitalized by two medical centers in Jiangsu Province, China, from January 2015 to March 2024.

In this study, a large drinking water reservoir (Fengshuba Reservoir) was chosen as a representative case, and the bacterial communities in the sediments and soils of Water-level fluctuating zone (WLFZ) as well as their responses to heavy metals (HMs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were systematically investigated. The results indicated that the abundance and diversity of the bacterial community obviously changed with seasonal hydrological variations in sediments, and the absolute abundance and composition of bacteria community differed significantly between the sediment phase and soil phase. Bacteria with the ability to degrade pollutants rapidly proliferate and gain ascendancy in the soil phase, with Burkholderia-Caballeronia-Paraburkholderia (B-C-P) and Bradyrhizobium forming the core of the largest community.
