Clinical features of Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C) associated with COVID-19 are nonspecific. In this retrospective cohort study of 39 patients evaluated for MIS-C, 11 had non-SARS-CoV-2 infections, 3 of whom were also diagnosed with MIS-C. Clinical features were similar in patients with MIS-C and patients with non-SARS-CoV-2 infections. Clinicians should consider non-SARS-CoV-2 infections in patients undergoing MIS-C evaluation.
与 COVID-19 相关的儿童多系统炎症综合征(MIS-C)的临床特征是非特异性的。在这项对 39 名评估为 MIS-C 的患者的回顾性队列研究中,有 11 名患者存在非 SARS-CoV-2 感染,其中 3 名患者也被诊断为 MIS-C。MIS-C 患者和非 SARS-CoV-2 感染患者的临床特征相似。临床医生在评估 MIS-C 患者时应考虑非 SARS-CoV-2 感染。
