Clinical Prediction of Necrotizing Pneumonia in Children With Mycoplasma pneumoniae: A Model Based on Early Response to Therapy

Canadian Respiratory Journal, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Objective This study aimed to identify factors that predict progression to necrotizing pneumonia (NP) in children with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) who fail to respond to initial therapy and to develop a predictive model to support early clinical decision‐making. Methods We retrospectively analyzed clinical and laboratory data of children with

Early Diagnosis and Successful Treatment of Influenza Coinfection With Community‐Onset Methicillin‐Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Necrotizing Pneumonia: A Case Report

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Necrotizing pneumonia is a severe and potentially fatal complication of community‐acquired pneumonia, often associated with toxin‐producing or drug‐resistant pathogens. Rapid and accurate identification of these pathogens is crucial for timely intervention. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)–based diagnostic tools, such as the BioFire FilmArray

First Report on Neonatal Isolated Submandibular Suppurative Sialadenitis in Preterm Triplet Girls

Case Reports in Pediatrics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Neonatal isolated submandibular suppurative sialadenitis (NISSS) is a rare condition. We present a case of NISSS caused by Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) in premature triplet girls born at 28 + 1 weeks of gestation. Mother’s milk culture tested positive for S. aureus, which is presumed to be the potential contributing factor of the infection.

Severe Necrotizing Community‐Acquired Pneumonia and Bilateral Empyema in an Immunocompetent Patient due to Fusobacterium necrophorum

Case Reports in Pulmonology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
