DOI: 10.1002/jmri.27186
Abstract: Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the medical community has again observed how children may have different presentations and host immune responses to disease than adults. Fortunately, the prognosis has been overwhelmingly favorable for our youngest patients.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00246-017-1726-2
Abstract: Chest pain is a typical symptom of acute myocarditis in adolescents. It may be indistinguishable from myocardial ischemia so it is called “infarct-like pattern.” Cardiovascular magnetic resonance has an important role as a non-invasive diagnostic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10741-018-9724-x
Abstract: Acute myocarditis (AM) is commonly found in everyday clinical practice. Differential diagnosis between various causes of myocardial damage with non-obstructive coronary arteries can be cumbersome for clinician. Moreover, AM may be provoked by a number… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cardfail.2017.05.007
Abstract: ciHHV-6 (chromosomally-integrated HHV-6) is an uncommon cause of myocarditis but may be underdiagnosed. We describe a case of reactivated ciHHV-6 myocarditis successfully treated with antiviral therapy. Our case demonstrates the need for a greater awareness… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ihj.2020.12.016
Abstract: Myocarditis is an inflammatory disease of the myocardium with high morbidity and mortality; however, definite prognostic factors are still unclear. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the predictor of clinical outcomes of acute myocarditis focusing on… read more here.
