Recognition of refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia among Myocoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia in hospitalized children: development and validation of a predictive nomogram model

Table 1 Chest imaging score

Chest imaging findings	Yes	No
Non-consolidation	1	0
Consolidation	2	0
Consolidation and a small amount of pleural effusion	3	0
Consolidation and a medium to large amount of pleural effusion	4	0

Non-consolidation: patchy infiltration, or localized reticulonodular infiltration, or parahilar peribronchial infiltration; Consolidation: lobar or segmental consolidation and/or atelectasis; A small amount of pleural efusion: the angle of the costal diaphragm becomes dull; A medium to large amount of pleural efusion: a large uniform dense shadow in the lower pleural cavity, the upper boundary is curved, the concave surface is upward, and the highest point is in the armpit; Even the mediastinum is pushed to the opposite side. The scores of various chest imaging changes were not cumulative, and the highest score was used as the imaging score
