Association of baseline comorbidities with progression to severe disease among adolescents with mild/moderate COVID-19 |
While the majority of children with COVID-19 present with mild disease and readily recover, certain patients may initially experience mild or moderate illness but progress to severe COVID-19 . Available data are limited but suggest that underlying comorbidities may predispose children to severe COVID-19. |

COVID-19 for Outpatient General Pediatricians |
However not much has been published to help general pediatricians distinguish which children with positive tests are at risk for disease progression, limiting the ability to provide anticipatory guidance to families. Our proposal focuses on outpatient children who may present to their general pediatrician either by telemedicine or in person with symptoms ranging from congestion to cough to fever, or potentially asymptomatic with a known exposure. |

Retrospective Characterization of Obese Children with Symptomatic COVID-19 Across the United States using the Pediatric COVID-19 Case Registry |
There is a substantial evidence showing that obesity puts adult patients at higher risk for COVID-19 infection, higher risk for hospitalization/ICU admission and increased risk of death. The role of obesity in children with covid-19 remains to be well-defined. |
