Background: The features of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) differ from those without. This study aims to spot a routinely tested parameter with discriminative, predictive and prognostic value to enhance CURB-65's prognostic accuracy in CAP patients with T2DM.
Methods: We retrospectively studied consecutive CAP patients from 2020 to 2021, comparing laboratory parameters between patients with and without T2DM.

Mycoplasma pneumoniae is a leading cause of a community-acquired respiratory illness occurring in children with manifestations occurring throughout the year but peaking in summer and early fall. Predominantly affecting school-aged children, the infection presents as pneumonia, featuring fever, cough, dyspnea, and sore throat. Extrapulmonary manifestations such as Stevens-Johnson have been rarely associated with mycoplasma pneumoniae infection presenting with ocular, oral, and genital involvement.
