      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Patients are placed in three equal groups (drug A, C, B) based on a randomized table with 10 blocks designed using Random allocation software (with one-to-one allocation). In order to randomly assign 60 patients to three groups, first, 6 blocks of 10 different letters A, C, and B are created, which respectively indicate the group treated with vitamin A, B the group treated with corticosteroids, and C the placebo group. Then these blocks were numbered with numbers one to six. In the next step, each of these blocks is randomly selected by drawing 6 times from numbers one to six. In this way, in each lottery, by choosing a block, a combination of 10 letters A (group treated with vitamin A), B (group treated with cortone) and C (placebo group) is obtained, and at the end of the 6 stages of the lottery Drawing, after selecting 6 blocks, a total of 6 combinations of 10 letters A and C B will be obtained. The combination obtained from the letters A, C, and B are placed individually in 6 separate envelopes and sealed, and one envelope is opened with each patient's visit to determine which group the patient belongs to take, Blinding description: Given that the drug and placebo are identical in terms of shape, color, smell, size, and packaging, participants, researchers, or outcome assessors will be unaware of study group allocation.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group: Receiving vitamin A, manufactured by Osoeh Pharmaceutical Company of Iran, by injection during three days of hospitalization, three times in three days, and each injection of 25,000 units for children under one year and 50,000 units for children one year and older. Intervention 2: Intervention group:receiving corticosteroid (dexamethasone), manufactured by Tehran Shimi Pharmaceutical Company of Iran, by injection during three days of hospitalization, daily (0.15 mg/kg/day) in two divided doses.
