Learning Outcomes
Learners will explore how COVID-19 affects myocardial health, particularly in individuals without prior comorbidities.

Learners will review methods such as transthoracic echocardiography, cardiac MRI, and biomarkers (e.g., troponin-T and microRNA) for identifying heart-related complications in COVID-19 patients.

Learners will interpret the results and implications of the cohort study, focusing on the lack of myocardial injury in both groups despite persistent symptoms.
