초록

소아청소년 코로나바이러스감염증-19 환자들의 유병률과 사망률이 성인에 비하여 낮지만, 임상적인 중증도가 낮은 이유는 아직 잘 알려져 있지 않다. 소아청소년 환자들이 비교적 가벼운 임상 경과를 보이는 이유에 관하여 지금까지 알려진 내용들을 살펴보면, 코로나바이러스감염증-19의 임상 경과에 영향을 줄 수 있는 면역 체계의 특성과 면역 상호작용, 안지오텐신전환효소 2 수용체의 역할, 호흡기계의 특징, 동반 질환과 위험 요인 보유, 방역 조치의 영향 등에서 소아청소년은 성인과 구별되는 차이점이 있었다. 그러나 상대적으로 양호한 임상 경과를 보이는 소아청소년 환자들이라 하더라도 필요한 의료 자원이 적시에 제공되어야 한다.

Abstract

There have been several reports on why the clinical course of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in pediatric patients is milder than in adults. There are distinctive points in the immune system between children and adults, as well as in the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 gene expression, the characteristics of the respiratory system, the effects of comorbidities and risk factors, and the effect of infection control. Even though children tend to have mild forms of COVID-19, this does not mean that we should not regard it as a matter of importance.
