Myocarditis following AstraZeneca (an adenovirus vector vaccine) COVID‐19 vaccination: A case report
Coronavirus disease‐19 (COVID‐19) vaccines are massively administered globally and some adverse events, such as myocarditis, are being reported. Most of the reported cases of post‐vaccination myocarditis have occurred following mRNA vaccinations. However,

Myocarditis is a condition caused by acute or chronic inflammation of the cardiac myocytes, resulting in associated myocardial edema and myocardial injury or necrosis. The exact incidence is unknown, but is likely underestimated, with more mild cases going unreported.

Misleading assertions, unjustified assumptions, and additional limitations of a study by Patone et al., described in the article "Risk of Myocarditis After Sequential Doses of COVID-19 Vaccine and SARS-CoV-2 Infection by Age and Sex" [PDF]
We describe several shortcomings of a study by Patone et al, whose findings were recently published in the American Heart Association Journal Circulation, including the following: * The study's principal conclusion, as initially stated, begins "Overall, the risk of myocarditis is greater after SARS-CoV-2 infection than after COVID-19 vaccination ...."

Automated identification and quantification of myocardial inflammatory infiltration in digital histological images to diagnose myocarditis [PDF]
This study aims to develop a new computational pathology approach that automates the identification and quantification of myocardial inflammatory infiltration in digital HE-stained images to provide a quantitative histological diagnosis of myocarditis.898 HE-stained whole slide images (WSIs) of myocardium from 154 heart transplant patients diagnosed ...

Automatic Diagnosis of Myocarditis Disease in Cardiac MRI Modality using Deep Transformers and Explainable Artificial Intelligence [PDF]
Myocarditis is a significant cardiovascular disease (CVD) that poses a threat to the health of many individuals by causing damage to the myocardium. The occurrence of microbes and viruses, including the likes of HIV, plays a crucial role in the development of myocarditis disease (MCD). The images produced during cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI)

Myocarditis is associated with an increased risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in the young. However, information on nationwide burden of SCD caused by myocarditis (SCD-myocarditis) is sparse.
