Abstract

It is pertinent to examine potentially detrimental impacts of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on young people. We conducted a review to assess the health impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on children and adolescents. Databases of MEDLINE, Embase and the Cochrane Library were searched in June 2020, using keywords for 'children', 'adolescents' and 'COVID-19'. English papers discussing young people in context to the COVID-19 pandemic were included. Quality of selected studies was evaluated and scored. Of the 2013 identified articles, 22 met the inclusion criteria, including 11 cohort studies, ten cross-sectional studies and one report. Five main issues emerged: Increased mental health conditions, declines in presentations to paediatric emergency departments, declines in vaccination rates, changes in lifestyle behaviour (mainly decreased physical activity for specific groups of children), and changes in paediatric domestic violence and online child sexual abuse. There are early indications that the COVID-19 pandemic is impacting the health of young people, and this is amplified for those with existing health conditions and vulnerabilities. Despite this, there is limited insight into the protective factors for young people's health and wellbeing, as well as how the impacts of the pandemic can be mitigated in both the short and long term.

COVID-19大流行对儿童和青少年的间接健康影响:综述
研究2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)大流行对年轻人的潜在有害影响是有意义的。我们进行了一项综述,以评估COVID-19大流行对儿童和青少年的健康影响。2020年6月,使用“儿童”、“青少年”和“COVID-19”等关键词对MEDLINE、Embase和Cochrane图书馆的数据库进行了检索。收录了讨论2019冠状病毒病大流行背景下年轻人的英文论文。对所选研究的质量进行评估和评分。在2013篇确定的文章中,22篇符合纳入标准,包括11篇队列研究、10篇横断面研究和1篇报告。出现了五个主要问题:精神健康状况恶化、到儿科急诊科就诊的人数减少、疫苗接种率下降、生活方式行为改变(主要是特定儿童群体的体育活动减少)以及儿科家庭暴力和网上儿童性虐待的变化。有初步迹象表明,2019冠状病毒病大流行正在影响年轻人的健康,对于那些有现有健康状况和脆弱性的人来说,这种影响更为严重。尽管如此,人们对年轻人健康和福祉的保护因素以及如何在短期和长期内减轻大流行病的影响的了解有限。
