Proportion of asymptomatic coronavirus disease 2019: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Jingjing He et al.

Summary: Approximately 15.6% of confirmed COVID-19 patients are asymptomatic. Nearly half of the patients with no symptoms at detection time will develop symptoms later. Children are likely to have a higher proportion of asymptomatic infection than adults. Asymptomatic COVID-19 patients could have abnormal laboratory and radiational manifestations, which can be used as screening strategies to identify asymptomatic infection.

The epidemiological and radiographical characteristics of asymptomatic infections with the novel coronavirus (COVID-19): A systematic review and meta-analysis

Can Chen et al.

Summary: A meta-analysis on asymptomatic COVID-19 infections revealed that they were more common in children and healthcare workers, and increased after February 29, 2020, especially in non-Asian regions. Chest radiographical imaging could help in the early identification of asymptomatic infections.

Asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 Carriers: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Gopiram Syangtan et al.

Summary: Asymptomatic cases of SARS-CoV-2 play a crucial role in magnifying the transmission of COVID-19, with children and females more likely to present as asymptomatic cases. Therefore, establishing a mass surveillance system to track potential asymptomatic cases is essential, with special attention to females and children.

SARS-CoV-2 Transmission From People Without COVID-19 Symptoms

Michael A. Johansson et al.

Summary: The study suggests that more than half of COVID-19 transmission may come from asymptomatic individuals, highlighting the importance of measures beyond identifying and isolating symptomatic cases in controlling the spread of the virus.

Summary: Patients with COVID-19 can be categorized by severity, and it is important to increase nucleic acid testing frequency for international entrants and close contacts of confirmed cases. Expanding sample types for testing and implementing parallel testing by two institutions at key points are recommended.

SARS-CoV-2, SARS-CoV, and MERS-CoV viral load dynamics, duration of viral shedding, and infectiousness: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Muge Cevik et al.

Summary: This study aimed to characterize the viral load dynamics, duration of viral shedding, and viable virus shedding of SARS-CoV-2 in various body fluids. The findings suggest that while SARS-CoV-2 RNA shedding can be prolonged in respiratory and stool samples, the duration of viable virus shedding is relatively short-lived.
