Robert J. Samuels et al.

Summary: Pediatric Lassa fever presents as a nonspecific febrile illness with high mortality, especially among children with antigen-positive results. Unexplained bleeding and confusion are associated with increased odds of death, while abnormal liver and kidney function markers are linked to higher likelihood of death. Treatment with ribavirin does not significantly impact survival, emphasizing the need for more evidence-based research in pediatric LF management.
