Background Limited pediatric cases with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) have been reported and the clinical profiles regarding COVID‐19 in children remain obscure. Our aim was to investigate the clinical characteristics of COVID‐19 in children. Methods PUBMED and EMBASE were searched through 20 June 2020, for case reports and case series reporting pediatric COVID‐19 cases. Epidemiological, clinical, laboratory, and radiological data were collected and analyzed to compare by age. Results Our search identified 46 eligible case reports and case series. A total of 114 pediatric cases with COVID‐19 were included. The main clinical features were mild symptoms including fever (64%), cough (35%), and rhinorrhea (16%), or no symptoms (15%). Ground‐like opacities were common radiological findings (54%). The main laboratory findings were lymphopenia (33%) and elevated D‐dimer (52%) and C‐reactive protein (40%) levels. We identified 17 patients (15%) with multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS‐C) manifesting with symptoms overlapping with, but distinct from, Kawasaki disease, including gastrointestinal symptoms, left ventricular systolic dysfunction, shock, and marked elevated inflammatory biomarkers. Twelve percent of the patients including 65% of the MIS‐C cases required intensive care because of hypotension. No deaths were reported. Conclusion This systematic review found that children with COVID‐19 are generally less severe or asymptomatic. However, infants might be seriously ill and older children might develop MIS‐C with severe illness. Early detection of children with mild symptoms or an asymptomatic state and early diagnosis of MIS‐C are mandatory for the management of COVID‐19 and the prevention of transmission and a severe inflammatory state.

“…We also performed a chest x-ray and no infiltrates or pleural effusion were found. This finding is appropriate with study from Xiaoping et al in China, found no obvious abnormality in chest X-ray from pediatric patients nine-years-old with COVID-19 [ 12 ]. Abnormal respiratory findings might be small pleural effusions, patchy consolidations, focal consolidation, and atelectasis [ 8 ].…”

Objective: to map the epidemiological profile of children and adolescents with COVID-19 in the world literature. Methods: a scoping review systematized by the Joanna Briggs Institute protocol in the PubMed/MEDLINE, CINAHL, Web of Science, Scopus, Science direct and Google Scholar databases. Articles with children and/or adolescents with laboratory diagnosis of COVID-19 were used. Results: thirty-two articles were included in the review. Most children and adolescents were male, with contamination by family transmission. The most frequent clinical manifestations were fever, cough and diarrhea. Ten studies cited pre-existing condition/disease, and hospital length ranged from one to twenty days. Three deaths were reported and no study presented race/color, education and socioeconomic conditions. Conclusion: it was possible to screen the epidemiological profile with information about age group, sex, probable contamination of the disease, clinical manifestations, presence of pre-existing disease/condition, hospitalization and deaths among children and adolescents with COVID-19.
