[HTML][HTML] Factors associated with myocardial SARS-CoV-2 infection, myocarditis, and cardiac inflammation in patients with COVID-19
COVID-19 has been associated with cardiac injury and dysfunction. While both myocardial
inflammatory cell infiltration and myocarditis with myocyte injury have been reported in
patients with fatal COVID-19, clinical–pathologic correlations remain limited. The objective
was to determine the relationships between cardiac pathological changes in patients dying
from COVID-19 and cardiac infection by SARS-CoV-2, laboratory measurements, clinical
features, and treatments. In a retrospective study, 41 consecutive autopsies of patients with …
