概括
患有COVID-19感染史的儿童,嗅觉识别能力略有下降. 需要进一步的研究来了解儿童COVID-19病例中嗅觉功能障碍的流行程度.
科学领域:
- 耳鼻喉科 耳鼻喉科 耳鼻喉科
- 儿科健康 儿科健康
- 传染性疾病 传染性疾病
背景情况:
- COVID-19可能会影响嗅觉系统.
- 在COVID-19后儿童的亚临床嗅觉功能障碍需要进行调查.
研究的目的:
- 为了确定有COVID-19感染史的儿童是否表现出亚临床缺血症 (减少嗅觉).
主要方法:
- 260名5至17岁的儿童从儿童耳鼻喉科诊所招募.
- 收集了人口统计数据和COVID-19感染史.
- 儿童嗅觉轮 (PSW) 用于评估嗅觉功能.
主要成果:
- 与没有感染的儿童 (8.0) 相比,以前患有COVID-19感染的儿童的PSW平均得分 (7.6) 在统计学上显著较低.
- 之前的COVID-19感染与总PSW得分有负相关性.

Upper Respiratory Drugs: Antitussives, Expectorants, and Mucolytics
300
Respiratory symptoms, such as congestion and cough, commonly accompany respiratory tract conditions. Various medications, such as antitussives, expectorants, and mucolytics, play crucial roles in providing relief.
Antitussives include codeine, dextromethorphan (Robitussin), and benzonatate (Tessalon). Codeine and dextromethorphan exert their effects centrally by suppressing the cough reflex center in the medulla. Benzonatate operates peripherally within the respiratory tract by...

Pneumonia I: Introduction
247
Pneumonia is an acute respiratory infection that targets the lungs, specifically the alveoli. These tiny air sacs, essential for oxygen exchange, become engorged with pus and fluid, severely hindering breathing, decreasing oxygen absorption, and causing significant pain and discomfort during respiration.
Risk Factors
Various factors influence the likelihood of developing pneumonia. Age plays a crucial role, with infants, children under two, and individuals over 65 at increased risk due to their...
