背景:
RT-PCR陽性患者のCOVID-19の様々な臨床症状が報告されている。しかし,小児と成人の臨床症状の違いは明らかではなかった.そこで我々は、最新の文献から得られたデータを系統的に解析することにより、中国のCOVID-19患者の小児と成人の臨床症状や画像特性の違いを検討することを目的とした。
BACKGROUND: The various clinical manifestations of COVID-19 with RT-PCR positive patients have been reported. However, the differences in the clinical presentation between children and adults were unclear. Thus, we aimed to investigate the differences in the clinical manifestations and imaging characteristics between Chinese children and adults with COVID-19 by systematically analyzing the data derived from some latest literatures.
方法:
COVID-19の論文をPubMedおよび中国医学雑誌ネットワークで大規模な検索を行い、いくつかの標準的な要件に基づいて関連する論文を選定した。収録された論文は、QUADAS-2ツールを用いた品質評価の結果、COVID-19患者の小児と成人の臨床症状の違いについて分析した。臨床的特徴とCT所見の違いについては、ピアソンχ検定またはフィッシャーの厳密検定を用いて解析した。CT検査を受けた患者を初診群(0~4日)と経過観察群(5~14日)に分けた。
METHODS: An extensive search of COVID-19 papers was conducted in PubMed and Chinese medical journal network, and relevant articles were selected based on some standard requirements. The included papers were analyzed for differences in clinical manifestation between children and adults with COVID-19 after the quality evaluation with the QUADAS-2 tool. The differences in the clinical features and CT findings were analyzed using a Pearson χ test or Fisher's exact test. Patients who underwent CT examination were divided into the initial examination (0-4days) and follow-up examination groups (5-14 days).
結果:
本研究では、RT-PCR(+)を有する345patients(小児70名、成人275名)を対象とした(小児群5論文、成人群5論文)。小児と成人で有意差が認められたのは、曝露歴(p<0.001、χ=166.890)、発熱(p=0.016、χ=5.757)、白血球数(p<0.001、χ=14.043)、初期段階(p<0.001、χ=60.653)およびフォローアップ段階(p<0.001、χ=52.924)でのCT特徴;およびフォローアップ段階での関与肺(p<0.001、χ=16.776)。
RESULTS: A total of 345patients (70 children and 275 adults) with RT- PCR (+) were included in our study (5 papers for children and 5 papers for adult groups). Significant differences between children and adults were found in exposure history (p < 0.001, χ = 166.890), fever (p = 0.016, χ = 5.757), white cell count (p < 0.001, χ = 14.043), and CT features in the initial (p < 0.001, χ = 60.653) and follow-up stages (p < 0.001, χ = 52.924); and the involved lung in the follow-up stage (p < 0.001, χ = 16.776).
結論:
RT-PCR陽性COVID-19を有する小児と成人の間には、COVID-19を有する小児の管理や保護に役立ついくつかの違いが提示されている。
CONCLUSIONS: Some differences have been presented between children and adults with RT-PCR positive COVID-19, which are helpful in the management and protection of children with COVID-19.
