The first pediatric study demonstrating significantly higher positivity rate of nasal (mid-turbinate) swab testing over oropharyngeal swab testing in detecting SARS-CoV-2 (Fisher exact test 0.046, Cohen K 0.43, confidence interval 95%, 0.014-0.855). Benefits might include lower collection-related hazard for healthcare workers. We recommend it as preferred choice for swab-based SARS-CoV-2 testing in children.
第一项儿科研究表明，与咽拭子检测相比，鼻拭子（中鼻甲）检测在检测 SARS-CoV-2 方面的阳性率显著更高（Fisher 确切检验 0.046，Cohen K 0.43，95%置信区间为 0.014-0.855）。其优势可能包括降低医护人员采集相关的风险。我们建议将其作为儿童基于拭子的 SARS-CoV-2 检测的首选方法。
