Pathological Evidence for SARS-CoV-2 as a Cause of Myocarditis JACC Review Topic of the Week

Rika Kawakami et al.

Pericarditis after SARS-CoV-2 Infection: Another Pebble in the Mosaic of Long COVID?

Francesco Carubbi et al.

Summary: With the success of COVID-19 vaccination programs, acute cases are decreasing, but the focus is shifting to long COVID and cardiovascular manifestations like pericarditis. Pericarditis is common in acute infection but rare post-acutely, possibly linked to ongoing inflammation without viral replication. Glucocorticoids may be an effective treatment for post-COVID pericarditis not responding to conventional therapy.

Factors associated with myocardial SARS-CoV-2 infection, myocarditis, and cardiac inflammation in patients with COVID-19

Mayara Bearse et al.

Summary: COVID-19 is associated with cardiac injury and dysfunction, with cardiac infection by SARS-CoV-2 being common among patients who have died from the disease but often with only rare infected cells. Cardiac infection by SARS-CoV-2 is linked to more cardiac inflammation and electrocardiographic changes. Nonbiologic immunosuppression is associated with lower incidences of myocarditis and cardiac infection by SARS-CoV-2.
