Correlation study of cough variant asthma and mycoplasma pneumonia infection in children

ABSTRACT

Cough variant asthma [CVA], as one of bronchitis diseases, features with repeated cough. In clinics, CAV does not show significant abnormal signs, therefore antibiotic therapy can hardly achieve satisfactory treatment effect. With the development of scientific technologies, the correlation between mycoplasma pneumoniae infection and CVA has become a hot research topic in clinics. In clinics, mycoplasma pneumoniae is extensively regarded as major cause for CVA, with complex pathogenic mechanism. The symptoms of CVA is characterized by chronic non abnormal inflammation, normally accompanied with bronchospasm and intestinal infection. Clinical practices show that about 6% of CVA children mainly show continuous cough till midnight during onset period, which is easily to misdiagnosed as bronchitis. Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection is a common disease threatening Children's health in China. With the annual increase of incidence of infantile pneumonia in China, mycoplasma pneumoniae infection has become a major reason leading to the death of child in China. More such mycoplasma pneumoniae infection is a sporadic disease spreading in a small range, and can onset in four seasons, making great impact on living quality and health of children. On this basis, this paper analyzes the correlation between Children's CVA and mycoplasma pneumoniae infection, in the hope of providing valuable reference for clinical treatment
