Abstract Twenty-six of 55 members and pledges of a college fraternity became infected with Mycoplasma pneumoniae over a three-week period in the fall of 1968. The epidemic curve suggested a common source of exposure. The only period in which members and pledges shared a common environment before the outbreak was on a single day when all were present at

Chlamydia pneumoniaeandMycoplasma pneumoniae
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2005Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection occurs worldwide and is the most common cause of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in 5- to 20-year-olds. The most reliable diagnostic test is the enzyme immunoassay, which allows immunoglobulin (Ig)G and IgM titration and presents 92% sensitivity and 95% specificity on paired samples.

CONGENITAL MYCOPLASMA PNEUMONIAE PNEUMONIA IN A NEONATE
Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2008A fatal case of vertical transmission of Mycoplasma pneumoniae manifesting as congenital pneumonia in a neonate is presented. The diagnosis was based on the detection of DNA by polymerase chain reaction on the neonatal nasopharyngeal aspirates and placenta and rising titers of maternal anti Mycoplasma antibodies by complement fixation test.

Mycoplasma pneumoniae in Primary Atypical Pneumonia
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1965A cultural and serologic study of primary atypical pneumonia (PAP) was done prospectively in 239 randomly chosen recruit admissions to the US Naval Hospital, Great Lakes, III. Cold-agglutinin reactive sera were found in 172 patients, while evidence of Mycoplasma pneumoniae (Eaton agent) infection was detected in 41.
