Abstract：Objective To investigate the plasma D-dimer level in the expression of mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia.Methods Totally 120 hospitalized patients with community acquired pneumonia in Beijing Anzhen hospital were divided into mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia group (51 cases) and other pneumonia group (69 cases) ; healthy people (58 cases) were selected as the control group.The plasma D-dimer of three groups was detected.The D-dimer level and positive rate were compared.Results The plasma D-dimer level of mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia group and other pneumonia group was higher than that of the control group [(324 ± 159),(281 ± 110) μg/L vs (73 ± 43) μg/L] (P ＜ 0.05).The D-dimer level of mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia group had no significant difference compared with other pneumonia groups (P ＞ 0.05) ; but positive rate of mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia group was significantly higher than that of the other pneumonia group [35.3％ (18/51) vs 17.4 ％ (12/69)] and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Community acquired pneumonia,especially mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia,can often cause dysfunction of coagulation,result in high agglutination condition and may cause thrombosis.
