我们报告了对巴西萨尔瓦多因肺炎住院的184名儿童进行的16种细菌和病毒的调查。144例（78%）病例确定了病因。病毒、细菌和混合感染分别见于110例（60%）、77例（42%）和52例（28%）患者。鼻病毒（21%）和肺炎链球菌（21%）是最常见的病原体。我们的研究结果证明了病毒和肺炎球菌感染在这些患者中的重要性。
We report an investigation for 16 bacteria and viruses among 184 children hospitalized with pneumonia in Salvador, Brazil. Etiology was established in 144 (78%) cases. Viral, bacterial, and mixed infections were found in 110 (60%), 77 (42%), and 52 (28%) patients, respectively. Rhinovirus (21%) and Streptococcus pneumoniae (21%) were the most common pathogens. Our results demonstrate the importance of viral and pneumococcal infections among those patients.
