Age-related immune response disparities between adults and children with severe COVID-19: a case–control study in China by Hongliang Chen, Hongliang Chen, Yuan Li, Liping Yuan, Fen Liu, Qian Sun, Qian Sun, Qingkai Luo, Yefei Lei, Yinglan Hou, Jiayan Li, Liang Cai, Shixing Tang

“…A case–control study was conducted using propensity score matching (PSM) to mitigate possible confounding factors.ResultsThe significant differences observed included lymphocyte exhaustion, an increased neutrophil-to-lymphocyte (NEU/LYM) ratio, high levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), and a cytokine storm, characterized by high levels of Th1 proinflammatory cytokines, including interleukin 1β (IL-1β), IL-6, IL-8, interferon type I (IFN-γ), and tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) in the lung among severe adult COVID-19 patients. Additionally, systemic immune responses were observed in children with COVID-19.ConclusionSignificant differences in immune responses between adults and children with COVID-19 highlight the different mechanisms and potential intervention measures of COVID-19.…”
