Long-Term Effect of COVID-19 on Lung Imaging and Function, Cardiorespiratory Symptoms, Fatigue, Exercise Capacity, and Functional Capacity in Children and Adolescents: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

More research is needed to understand the long-term effect of COVID-19 on young people, and to clarify its causes and effective management.
