Introduction: (), a common pathogen of community-acquired pneumonia in school-age children and adolescents, can cause epidemics worldwide. In late 2023, the incidence of infection among children reached a high level.
Methods: We investigated the antimicrobial susceptibility of 62 isolates obtained from children with pneumonia in Beijing between 2021 and 2023, and analyzed the correlation of antimicrobial susceptibility with molecular characteristics of isolates and clinical manifestations of patients.

First-line macrolide therapy is encountering challenges due to the escalating incidence of macrolide-resistant Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MRMPP). This study aimed to illustrate prescription patterns among children diagnosed with either macrolide-sensitive Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MSMPP) or MRMPP and to further analyze the risk factors associated with MRMPP. This research encompassed 825 children who were diagnosed with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) at a tertiary hospital located in central China in 2023.

Objectives: The cell wall-less species Mycoplasma genitalium is a sexually transmitted pathogen with strong tendency to acquire resistance. Current knowledge about trends of resistance rates and differences between the risk population of men who have sex with men (MSM) and heterosexual patients as well as about circulating genotypes in both groups is limited.
Methods: Between August 2017 and December 2023, M.

Purpose Of Review: Define the utility of adjunctive macrolide therapy in patients with more severe forms of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP).
Recent Findings: Guidelines recommend adjunctive macrolide therapy as an option for patients with CAP, admitted to the hospital. A large data set collected both retrospectively and prospectively, including several recent randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have shown that adjunctive macrolide therapy can reduce mortality and improve outcomes in patients with severe CAP, more effectively than other alternative therapies.
