Summary Context
While males suffer more post-mRNA heart damage, females have more persistent symptoms from such injuries, symptoms lasted a median of 7 months.
Comments
Initial severity of myocarditis was not associated with long term problems. Females had longer symtoms despite less incidence than men. In 27% of patients, symptoms of heart pain lasted for a median interval of 7 months.
Abstract or Results, Key Passages
“Since the severity of the initial cardiac involvement was not a predictor of persisting symptoms, cardiac impairment does not sufficiently explain these symptoms. Future studies will show whether immune-triggered microvascular dysfunction or a systemic inflammatory syndrome could be a potential pathogenetic mechanism.”
