Abstract
The Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) is a new human disease caused by a novel coronavirus (CoV). The disease is reported mainly in adults. Data in children are scarce. The disease caused by MERS-CoV in children presents with a wide range of clinical manifestations, and it is associated with a lower mortality rate compared with adults. Poor outcome is observed mainly in admitted patients with medical comorbidities. We report a new case of MERS-CoV infection in a 9-month-old child complicated by severe respiratory symptoms, multi-organ dysfunction, and death. We reviewed the literature in an attempt to characterize the mode of presentation, the risk factors, and outcome of MERS-CoV infection in the pediatric population.

He was started on vancomycin and meropenem, and required mechanical ventilation and inotropic support. Blood gas showed metabolic acidosis, and the chest x-ray was normal. He gradually improved. On day 4 of PICU admission, he was completely weaned from inotropes, and repeated blood culture was negative. He remained on low-ventilatory support because of ascites and chest wall edema. On day 8, his condition deteriorated. He had increased respiratory effort and increased oxygen requirement. Blood gases showed compensated respiratory acidosis. Chest x-ray showed diffuse bilateral haziness (<bold><xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Figure 1</xref></bold>). At the same time, a decrease in urine output, and worsening in renal function was noted. Echocardiography showed mild tricuspid regurgitation with normal cardiac function. He was switched to high-frequency oscillatory ventilation. He was afebrile, and laboratory investigations showed a C-reactive protein of 24 mg/L (normal value [NV] - 0-6 mg/L), white blood cell count of 9.600/mm<sup>3</sup> (NV - 5-14.5/mm<sup>3</sup>), hemoglobin of 10.9 g/dL (NV - 11.5-15.5 g/dl), and platelet of 32000/mm<sup>3</sup> (NV - 150-450/mm<sup>3</sup>). His coagulation profile was initially within the normal range but later become prolonged (prothrombin time [PT] - 25 sec [NV - 11.5-14.5 s]; international normalized ratio [INR - 2.4 [NV - 0.9-1.3], prothrombin time [PTT] - 78 sec [NV - 30-41 s], fibrinogen - 5.2 g/dL [NV - 2-4 g/L]), and repeated blood culture was negative).

No other explanation for the sudden deterioration of the patient could be identified.

Apart from extensive infection control measures, a vast education campaign for the staff and the community including parents and their children was initiated.</p><p>In compliance with the Saudi Arabian Ministry of Health recommendations, screening with PCR for MERS-CoV was carried out for every patient that presented or developed fever, and respiratory symptoms with new chest infiltration documented on the chest x-ray. Despite all this extensive screening, and in contrast to what was observed by our colleagues dealing with adult cases in the hospital, our pediatric department could identify only one case of MERS-CoV in a 9-month-old child known to have nephrotic syndrome. Furthermore, out of 701 patients confirmed MERS-CoV reported, so far worldwide, only 14 were pediatric cases (2%).<xref rid="ref4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref> Does this mean that MERS-CoV is mainly an adult disease? Or alternatively, does MERS-CoV in children have a different clinical picture, including a less severe disease, or an atypical presentation, or even an asymptomatic carrier state? What are the risk factors, the comorbidities and the outcome? These questions are still unanswered in the pediatric literature. The 14 children with confirmed MERS-CoV have a mean age of 99 months, and they were 8 females and 6 males (<bold><xref ref-type="table" rid="T1">Table 1</xref></bold>). Nine patients were asymptomatic and were detected during screening of family contact; all these 9 patients were healthy without underlying diseases.<xref rid="ref5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref> Three patients developed mild respiratory symptoms,<xref rid="ref5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>-<xref rid="ref7" ref-type="bibr">7</xref> while the last 2 patients developed severe respiratory symptoms.<xref rid="ref5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref> These 2 patients have associated comorbidities.

This impression of low mortality in children with MERS-CoV was also reported during the acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) infections in children, where symptoms were milder, and resulted in no mortality, and few hospitalizations.<xref rid="ref9" ref-type="bibr">9</xref> The low incidence of MERS-CoV infection in children is corroborated by a Jordanian prospective year-round viral surveillance study in children less than 2 years of age admitted with acute respiratory symptoms and/or fever from March to September 2010 tested for MERS-CoV, all 474 tested patients were negative.<xref rid="ref10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref> We were, unfortunately, unable to identify how our patient got infected.</p><p>Three patterns of transmission of the disease are suggested by the literature:<xref rid="ref11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref> the first pattern is the occurrence of sporadic cases in communities. The true incidence of the disease in the community is not known. The second pattern is transmission within families. The rate of intrafamilial transmission is not known, but it is estimated to be approximately 3.6%.<xref rid="ref10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref> The third transmission pattern is nosocomial transmission from patient to patient, or from a patient to healthcare provider, or vice versa The study by Memish et al<xref rid="ref11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref> reported a positivity rate of MERS-CoV by PCR of only 1.12% of all tested health care workers. These data suggest that the recommended infection control measures are adequate to reduce the risk of transmission within healthcare facilities. During our investigations, we focused on the last 2 patterns of transmission, and we searched for any link between our patient and adult patients admitted during the same period with MERS-CoV in our hospital, however we failed to demonstrate any positive contacts.</p><p>In conclusion, these data indicate that although few cases of MERS-CoV in children have been detected, it remains mainly a disease of adults. The disease caused by MERS-CoV in children presents with a wide range of clinical manifestations, and it is associated with a lower mortality rate compared with adults. Poor outcome is observed mainly in admitted patients with medical comorbidities.</p></sec></body><back><fn-group><fn fn-type="financial-disclosure"><p><boxed-text position="float"><p><bold>Disclosure.</bold> Authors have no conflict of interests, and the work was not supported or funded by any drug company.</p></boxed-text></p></fn></fn-group><ref-list><ref id="ref1"><label>1</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><person-group person-group-type="author"><name><surname>Zaki</surname><given-names>AM</given-names></name><name><surname>Van Boheemen</surname><given-names>S</given-names></name><name><surname>Bestebroer</surname><given-names>TM</given-names></name><name><surname>Osterhaus</surname><given-names>AD</given-names></name><name><surname>Fouchier</surname><given-names>RA</given-names></name></person-group><article-title>Isolation of a novel coronavirus from a man with pneumonia in Saudi Arabia</article-title><source>N Engl J Med</source><year>2012</year><volume>367</volume><fpage>1814</fpage><lpage>1820</lpage><pub-id pub-id-type="pmid">23075143</pub-id></element-citation></ref><ref id="ref2"><label>2</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><person-group person-group-type="author"><name><surname>Assiri</surname><given-names>A</given-names></name><name><surname>Al-Tawfiq</surname><given-names>JA</given-names></name><name><surname>Al-Rabeeah</surname><given-names>AA</given-names></name><name><surname>Al-Rabiah</surname><given-names>FA</given-names></name><name><surname>Al-Hajjar</surname><given-names>S</given-names></name><name><surname>Al-Barrak</surname><given-names>A</given-names></name><etal></etal></person-group><article-title>Epidemiological, demographic, and clinical characteristics of 47 cases of Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus disease from Saudi Arabia: a descriptive study</article-title><source>Lancet Infect Dis</source><year>2013</year><volume>13</volume><fpage>752</fpage><lpage>761</lpage><pub-id pub-id-type="pmid">23891402</pub-id></element-citation></ref><ref id="ref3"><label>3</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><person-group person-group-type="author"><name><surname>Assiri</surname><given-names>A</given-names></name><name><surname>McGeer</surname><given-names>A</given-names></name><name><surname>Perl</surname><given-names>TM</given-names></name><name><surname>Price</surname><given-names>CS</given-names></name><name><surname>Al Rabeeah</surname><given-names>AA</given-names></name><name><surname>Cummings</surname><given-names>DA</given-names></name><etal></etal></person-group><article-title>Hospital outbreak of Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus</article-title><source>N Engl J Med</source><year>2013</year><volume>369</volume><fpage>407</fpage><lpage>416</lpage><pub-id pub-id-type="pmid">23782161</pub-id></element-citation></ref><ref id="ref4"><label>4</label><element-citation publication-type="book"><collab>World Health Organization</collab><source>Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) update.
