Updates in neonatal coronavirus disease 2019: What can we learn from detailed case reports?

Abstract

Although the COVID-19 epidemic has lasted for months, it has not yet been successfully controlled, and little is known about neonatal COVID-19. Therefore, literature search was conducted for references in PubMed, Science Direct, ProQuest, Web of Science and China National Knowledge Infrastructure for detailed case reports on neonatal COVID-19 published as of July 15, 2020, to facilitate the clinical treatment, epidemic prevention and control of neonatal COVID-19. Forty nonoverlapping case reports focusing mainly on the demographic characteristics, transmission modes, clinical features, treatments and prognosis of neonatal COVID-19, including 3 in Chinese and 37 in English, were available.
