Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to find simple blood test indicators to distinguish between SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and RSV infections in children, especially in resource-limited settings.
- Data from 1,420 children was analyzed, revealing significant differences in white blood cell counts and other blood parameters between those infected with SARS-CoV-2 and those infected with influenza A or RSV.
- Only the lymphocyte multiplied by platelet (LYM*PLT) ratio showed promising diagnostic value, with an area under the curve (AUC) greater than 0.7 for all age groups, suggesting its potential for use in differentiating these infections.
