评估哪些非药物干预措施(NPI)在控制新冠肺炎大流行方面越来越有效，也越来越不有效。我们对已发表和未发表的经验性研究进行了系统的回顾，无论是观察性的还是干预性的，分析了非营利组织机构对抗新冠肺炎大流行的比较有效性。我们检索了Embase/Medline和MedRxiv以确定相关文献。我们确定了34项研究。在新冠肺炎大流行的第一波期间，学校关闭是最有效的非营利组织，其次是工作场所关闭、商业和场馆关闭以及公共活动禁令。公共宣传运动和戴口罩的要求在控制流行病方面也是有效的，同时对人口的扰乱程度低于其他非营利机构。没有证据表明关闭公共交通、测试和接触者追踪战略以及对个人进行隔离或隔离的有效性。早期实施与减少新冠肺炎病例和死亡的更高有效性相关，而国家干预措施的普遍严格并不相关。在这项系统的评估中，我们发现学校关闭、工作场所关闭、商业和场馆关闭以及公共活动禁令是控制新冠肺炎传播的最有效的NPI。早期应对和一系列具体的社会疏远措施相结合，有效地减少了新冠肺炎病例和死亡人数。为适应决策需要，需要持续监测新的国家指标的有效性。
To evaluate which non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) have been more and less effective in controlling the COVID-19 pandemic. We performed a systematic review of published and unpublished empirical studies, either observational or interventional, analysing the comparative effectiveness of NPIs against the COVID-19 pandemic. We searched Embase/Medline and medRxiv to identify the relevant literature. We identified 34 studies. During the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, school closing was the most effective NPI, followed by workplace closing, business and venue closing and public event bans. Public information campaigns and mask wearing requirements were also effective in controlling the pandemic while being less disruptive for the population than other NPIs. There was no evidence on the effectiveness of public transport closure, testing and contact tracing strategies and quarantining or isolation of individuals. Early implementation was associated with a higher effectiveness in reducing COVID-19 cases and deaths, while general stringency of the NPIs was not. In this systematic review, we found that school closing, followed by workplace closing, business and venue closing and public event bans were the most effective NPIs in controlling the spread of COVID-19. An early response and a combination of specific social distancing measures are effective at reducing COVID-19 cases and deaths. Continuous monitoring of NPIs effectiveness is needed in order to adapt decision making.
