SARS-CoV-2 infections in children: Understanding diverse outcomes

Petter Brodin

Summary: SARS-CoV-2 infections in children usually result in mild or asymptomatic infections, and the reasons behind this are not fully understood. Possible explanations include more efficient local tissue responses, better thymic function, and crossreactive immunity. Post-infectious hyperinflammatory syndromes are rare in children and young people, but very rarely seen in adults. This article offers an additional explanation to mild infections, viral dynamics, and the higher incidence of rare multisystem inflammatory syndromes in children and young people from a life history and energy allocation perspective.

Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children and Long COVID: The SARS-CoV-2 Viral Superantigen Hypothesis

Magali Noval Rivas et al.

Summary: Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a febrile pediatric inflammatory disease that may develop in relation to SARS-CoV-2 infection. MIS-C is characterized by systemic hyperinflammation and multiorgan involvement, with similarities to Kawasaki disease and toxic shock syndrome. Molecular analysis and immunosequencing studies have revealed the presence of SAg-like and neurotoxin-like structures in MIS-C, which may contribute to autoimmune responses and neurological symptoms.

Susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 Infection Among Children and Adolescents Compared With Adults A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Russell M. Viner et al.

Summary: This systematic review and meta-analysis found that children and adolescents have a 44% lower odds of secondary infection with SARS-CoV-2 compared to adults, with insufficient data to determine if children transmit the virus less than adults. Preliminary evidence suggests that children have a lower susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 infection compared with adults, but their role in virus transmission remains unclear.

A national consensus management pathway for paediatric inflammatory multisystem syndrome temporally associated with COVID-19 (PIMS-TS): results of a national Delphi process

Rachel Harwood et al.

Summary: PIMS-TS is a newly discovered condition associated with COVID-19, and a national consensus management pathway has been developed for UK clinicians caring for affected children. The guidance emphasizes the importance of a multidisciplinary team in decision-making and recommends treatment options including supportive care, immunoglobulin, steroids, and biological therapies. This guidance provides a solid framework for clinicians caring for children with PIMS-TS in the UK and will be updated based on future evidence.

Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children and Kawasaki disease: a critical comparison

Chetan Sharma et al.

Summary: Children and adolescents infected with SARS-CoV-2 often exhibit mild symptoms, but may also develop a pediatric systemic vasculitis called MIS-C. This condition shares features with myocarditis and Kawasaki disease. Research indicates that MIS-C is a result of an exaggerated immune response triggered by prior exposure to SARS-CoV-2.

Summary: Comparing the clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with MIS-C and COVID-19 can help distinguish between the two conditions and improve health outcomes. Patterns of clinical presentation and organ system involvement were identified in this case series, providing valuable information for differentiation of MIS-C and COVID-19.

Long-term multidisciplinary follow-up is needed to observe if chronic cardiac impairment or other sequelae may occur in these patients.

Summary: The study found a decrease in Kawasaki disease cases and a low occurrence rate of MIS-C during the COVID-19 pandemic. The reduced incidence of respiratory infections and the protective effect of social distancing suggest a potential link between transmissible microbes and Kawasaki disease.

Longitudinal Outcomes for Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children

Kanwal M. Farooqi et al.

Summary: In this study, 45 children with MIS-C were followed longitudinally, with the majority presenting critically ill on admission but showing rapid resolution of inflammatory and cardiac manifestations. While most inflammatory markers normalized by 1 to 4 weeks postdischarge, some children exhibited persistent lymphocytosis and elevated levels of double-negative T cells at later follow-up points. Ultimately, only a small proportion of children had persistent echocardiographic abnormalities at 4 to 9 months postdischarge.

Best Practice Recommendations for the Diagnosis and Management of Children With Pediatric Inflammatory Multisystem Syndrome Temporally Associated With SARS-CoV-2 (PIMS-TS; Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children, MIS-C) in Switzerland

Luregn J. Schlapbach et al.

Summary: In the absence of high-grade evidence, best practice guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of children with suspected PIMS-TS were developed in Switzerland. These recommendations are based on currently available knowledge and aim to standardize treatment. Regular updates of the recommendations will be necessary due to the rapidly changing field and the need for more evidence.

Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children is driven by zonulin-dependent loss of gut mucosal barrier

Lael M. Yonker et al.

Summary: In children with MIS-C, prolonged presence of SARS-CoV-2 in the GI tract led to the release of zonulin, a biomarker of intestinal permeability, and subsequent trafficking of SARS-CoV-2 antigens into the bloodstream, resulting in hyperinflammation. Treatment with larazotide, a zonulin antagonist, reduced plasma SARS-CoV-2 spike antigen levels and inflammatory markers in a patient with MIS-C, leading to clinical improvement beyond current available treatments. These mechanistic insights provide potential targets for diagnosing, treating, and preventing MIS-C in children.
