Predicting the severity of mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia in pediatric and adult patients: a multicenter study.

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study is to develop a nomogram model for early prediction of the severe mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (SMPP) in Pediatric and Adult Patients. A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with MPP, classifying them into SMPP and non-severe MPP (NSMPP) groups. A total of 550 patients (NSMPP 374 and SMPP 176) were enrolled in the study and allocated to training, validation cohorts. 278 patients (NSMPP 224 and SMPP 54) were retrospectively collected from two institutions and allocated to testing cohort. The risk factors for SMPP were identified using univariate analysis. For radiomic feature selection, Spearman's correlation and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) were utilized. Logistic regression was used to build different models, includin
