Background: There is limited data on the pattern and severity of myocardial injury in patients with COVID-19 vaccination associated myocarditis.
Objective: We aimed to define the myocardial damage occurring after BNT162b2 vaccination, raise awareness about adverse reactions developing after vaccination, and determine the patterns and scope of Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings.
Patients/methods: A total of 9 patients diagnosed with vaccine-associated myopericarditis were followed up.
Article Synopsis
- This study investigates if parents' vaccination against COVID-19 can reduce hospitalizations for children who contract the virus, focusing on data from the delta variant period in Turkey (August to October 2021).
- The findings reveal that children whose parents were fully vaccinated were less likely to be hospitalized, with a significant correlation between parental vaccination status and the hospitalization rates of their children.
- The conclusion suggests that fully vaccinating both parents can provide indirect protection for their children against severe illness from COVID-19, indicating a need for further research on different COVID-19 variants.
