INTRODUCTION: Mycoplasma pneumoniae (M. pneumoniae) is the major pathogen involved in community-acquired pneumonia in all age groups. Resistance to macrolides, the first-line treatment for M. pneumoniae infection, is a major global public health concern. However, studies evaluating macrolide-resistant M. pneumoniae infection simultaneously in all ages are limited. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and clinical characteristics of macrolide-resistant M. pneumoniae infection in terms of age distribution.
METHODS: We enrolled 292 patients in Tokyo, Japan, who visited Eiju General Hospital or Zama Children's Clinic in 2015-2016. Patients were tested using real-time PCR for M. pneumoniae DNA. PCR-positive patients (n = 151) were further selected and sequentially divided into preschool-aged children (≤5 years, n = 31), school-aged children (6-15 years, n = 101), adolescents (16-19 years, n = 5), and adults (≥20 years, n = 14). We then analyzed the M. pneumoniae infection clinical characteristics, prevalence of macrolide-resistant infection, and 23S rRNA domain V resistance-associated mutation status.
RESULTS: We found insignificant differences in the prevalence of macrolide-resistant M. pneumoniae infection among all groups, clinical characteristics, and resistance-associated mutation status in patients with macrolide-resistant M. pneumoniae infection. We also found statistically higher prevalence of mutation-positive (n = 85) M. pneumoniae in patients previously treated with macrolide compared to the mutation-negative group (n = 66); 63.8% vs 11.1% (p < 0.001), respectively.
CONCLUSIONS: We found no significant differences in both clinical characteristics and prevalence of macrolide-resistant M. pneumoniae infection among all ages. Also, previous macrolide treatment contributes to drug-resistance.
