Non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPI) employed during the COVID-19 pandemic have impacted on the epidemiology and burden of paediatric ARI, although accurately describing the full nature of the impact is challenging. For most ARI pathogens, a reduction was observed in the early phase of the pandemic, correlating with the most stringent NPI. In later phases of the pandemic resurgence of disease was observed as NPI eased. This pattern was most striking for seasonal viruses, such as influenza and respiratory syncytial virus. The impact on ARI-associated bacterial disease varied; marked reductions in invasive <em>Streptococcus pneumoniae</em> and <em>Streptococcus pyogenes</em> were observed, followed by a resurgence that correlated with increases in respiratory viral infections. For <em>Corynebacterium diphtheriae</em>,<!--> <em>Bordetella pertussis</em>, and<!--> <em>Mycoplasma pneumonia</em>e, a sustained reduction of disease was observed well into 2022 in most regions.

The role of Vitamin D in the development and fortification of fetal pulmonary architecture and the synthesis of surfactants is well-documented. While different serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (Vit. D) have been studied for their diagnostic significance in RD, there is limited research on how it specifically affects the development of respiratory problems in infants and their mothers. The purpose of the present study is a systematic review and &lt;em&gt;meta&lt;/em&gt;-analysis to evaluate the correlation between serum levels of Vit.

The search was carried out until March 2024.The level of vitamin D in both mothers and their infants was systematically extracted and analyzed to determine the diagnostic efficacy of Vit. D levels. The mean difference (MD) was calculated along with a 95% confidence interval to determine the association between the Vit. D levels in newborns and their mothers and the likelihood of RD, RDS and TTN in infants.

It is also crucial to determine the optimal timing and frequency of post-TB assessments for effective PTLD detection. Furthermore, we need more knowledge of the modifiable risk factors for PTLD. The scarcity of prospective studies makes it difficult to establish causality and track the long-term course of the disease in children and adolescents.
