Abstract
This is a case control aims to determine the level of (sphingosine 1 phosphate) in serum and its
relationship to Community aquired pneumonia in children. Our study was conducted on 88
children, including 44 patients with pneumonia, who were collected from Abu El-Rish Children’s
Hospital at Cairo University, and their diagnosis was confirmed with Community aquired
pneumonia. And the contro group consisted of 44 children without symptoms of pneumonia, the
study showed that the level of (Sphingosine 1 phosphate) in children with C.A. pneumonia is higher
than children without it, also results showed that it is possible to rely on sphingosine 1 phosphate
in the diagnosis and prediction of community aquired pneumonia severity, complications and its
role in the development of the child’s clinical condition in terms of symptoms and need for hospital
or PICU admisson and can predict response to treatment
