The study analyzed the clinical features of 115 children diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection at Wuhan Children's Hospital, focusing on their demographics, close contact history, and clinical symptoms.
Out of the children studied, a significant majority had close contact with infected individuals, with many showing respiratory symptoms, yet a notable 53% were asymptomatic.
Lung CT scans revealed varying degrees of pulmonary changes, and while critical cases were rare, there were instances of severe illness requiring ongoing treatment.
