UNASSIGNED: Literature search was done in PubMed Central, Scopus, EMBASE, CINAHL, Cochrane library, Google Scholar & ScienceDirect from November 2019 to May 2022. Risk of bias assessment was done through Newcastle Ottawa scale. Meta-analysis was done using random-effects model and the final pooled estimate was reported as pooled odds ratio (OR) or standardized mean difference (SMD) along with 95 % confidence interval (CI) depending on the type of outcome.
UNASSIGNED: About 16 studies were included with most studies having higher risk of bias. Influenza paediatric patients had significantly higher erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) (pooled SMD = 0.60; 95%CI: 0.30-0.91; I2 = 0 %), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (pooled SMD = 2.01; 95%CI: 0.37-3.66; I2 = 98.4 %) and prothrombin time (PT) (pooled SMD = 2.12; 95%CI: 0.44-3.80; I2 = 98.3 %) when compared to paediatric COVID-19 patients. There was no significant difference in terms of features like CRP, procalcitonin, serum albumin, aPTT, mortality and need for mechanical ventilation.
UNASSIGNED: Inflammatory markers like ESR, LDH and PT was significantly higher in influenza patients when compared to COVID-19 in children, while rest of the markers and adverse clinical outcomes were similar between both the groups. Identification of these biomarkers has helped in understanding the distinctness of COVID-19 and influenza virus and develop better management strategies.
■文献检索是在PubMedCentral进行的,Scopus,EMBASE,CINAHL,科克伦图书馆,GoogleScholar&ScienceDirect从2019年11月到2022年5月。通过纽卡斯尔渥太华量表进行偏见风险评估。使用随机效应模型进行荟萃分析,最终汇总估计值报告为汇总比值比(OR)或标准化平均差(SMD)以及95%置信区间(CI),具体取决于结局类型。
■纳入约16项研究,大多数研究偏倚风险较高。流感儿科患者的红细胞沉降率(ESR)明显较高(合并SMD=0.60;95CI:0.30-0.91;I2=0%),与儿科COVID-19患者相比,乳酸脱氢酶(LDH)(合并SMD=2.01;95CI:0.37-3.66;I2=98.4%)和凝血酶原时间(PT)(合并SMD=2.12;95CI:0.44-3.80;I2=98.3%).在CRP等特征方面没有显着差异,降钙素原,血清白蛋白,aPTT,死亡率和机械通气的需要。
■炎症标志物,如ESR,与儿童COVID-19相比,流感患者的LDH和PT明显更高,而两组的其他标志物和不良临床结局相似.这些生物标志物的鉴定有助于理解COVID-19和流感病毒的独特性,并制定更好的管理策略。
