Identifying long covid in children … and other research
Ann Robinson reviews the latest research What exactly is long covid? The broad definition includes symptoms and signs that develop, persist, or relapse over time after the acute viral infection resolves. An estimated 65 million people worldwide may be affected, some with very debilitating effects. This includes large numbers of school-aged children (6-11 years old) and adolescents (12-17 years), and, as with all health conditions, the presentation isn’t necessarily the same as in adults. Myriad presentations make accurate identification tricky. This US observational meta-cohort study (RECOVER-Pediatrics) identified 14 symptoms among 5367 school-aged children and adolescents that were more common in those with a history of acute covid infection compared with those who hadn’t been infected and so couldn’t have long covid. There were also four symptoms in school-aged children only and three in adolescents only, which highlights the need to treat the two age groups separately. Overall, high percentages of children and adolescents reported at least one prolonged symptom whether infected or uninfected …

New-onset obstructive airway disease following COVID-19: a multicenter retrospective cohort study - BMC Medicine
Background The study assessed the association between COVID-19 and new-onset obstructive airway diseases, including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and bronchiectasis among vaccinated individuals recovering from COVID-19 during the Omicron wave. Methods This multicenter retrospective cohort study comprised 549,606 individuals from the U.S. Collaborative Network of TriNetX database, from January 8, 2022, to January 17, 2024. The hazard of new-onset obstructive airway diseases between COVID-19 and no-COVID-19 groups were compared following propensity score matching using the Kaplan–Meier method and Cox proportional hazards model. Results After propensity score matching, each group contained 274,803 participants. Patients with COVID-19 exhibited a higher risk of developing new-onset asthma than that of individuals without COVID-19 (adjusted hazard ratio (aHR), 1.27; 95% CI, 1.22–1.33; p
