Background Background Since the emergence of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in December 2019, several publications have emerged describing the manifestations of the disease in different age groups. Reports from the newborn group have however been sparse. This review summarizes the mode of transmission, clinical presentations as well as treatment and outcomes of COVID-19 in neonates. Methods Methods A systematic search for literature was conducted in April and in August 2020. The databases searched include PUBMED, Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, Web of Science, and Google Scholar. The search terms used included COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, Corona virus, Newborn, Neonate, exposure, vertical transmission, breastfeeding, droplet infection. We included primary studies that were carried out globally either in hospitals or in the communities such as case reports, case series, cross-sectional studies and other qualitative or quantitative studies and published in English language, between January and August 2020. Results Results Fifty six studies were included in this review. Studies were conducted in China,

Chest computed tomography findings of COVID-19 in children younger than 1 year: a systematic review

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background The aim of this systematic review is to evaluate the chest computed tomography (CT) findings in infants with confirmed COVID-19 infection by providing a comprehensive review of the existing literature. Data sources A systematic search was conducted on PubMed and Embase from the onset of the COVID-19 outbreak to October 20, 2020, for studies that discussed the chest CT findings in infants younger than 1 year with COVID-19 infection. Results A total of 35 studies comprising 70 COVID-19 (58.5% boys) confirmed infants were included. The mean age of the included patients was 4.1 months with a range of 1 day to 12 months. Chest CT scans showed bilateral abnormalities in 34 patients, and unilateral lung involvement in 25 patients. Ground-glass opacities (GGO) (71.43%) were found to be the most prevalent chest CT manifestation, followed by peribronchial thickening (60%), linear or band-shaped opacities (32.8%), consolidation (28.57%), nodule (18.57%), effusion (7.14%) and focal lucency (7.14%). Conclusions GGO and peribronchial thickening were the most prevalent findings in the infants’ chest CT scans. Linear or band-shaped opacities, consolidation, and pulmonary nodules are more common in infants than in adults. These findings suggest that the disease is more likely to be presented as an atypical pneumonia (peribronchial thickening and linear or band-shaped opacities) in this age group. Other chest CT scan manifestations can be classified as typical COVID-19 infection (peripheral GGO), lobar pneumonia (consolidation) and opportunistic infections (pulmonary nodules).
