Viral cardiomyopathy occurs when viral infections cause myocarditis with a resulting thickening of the myocardium and dilation of the ventricles. These viruses include Coxsackie B and adenovirus, echoviruses, influenza H1N1, Epstein–Barr virus, rubella (German measles virus), varicella (chickenpox virus), mumps, measles, parvoviruses, yellow fever, dengue fever, polio, rabies, and the ...

Myocarditis can progress to inflammatory cardiomyopathy when there are associated ventricular remodeling and cardiac dysfunction due to chronic inflammation. [6] [7] Symptoms can include shortness of breath, chest pain, decreased ability to exercise, and an irregular heartbeat. [1]
This form is a mutated quasispecies [13] of enterovirus which is capable of causing persistent infection in human tissues, and such infections have been found in the pancreas in type 1 diabetes, [16] [17] in chronic myocarditis and dilated cardiomyopathy, [18] [13] [19] in valvular heart disease, [20] in myalgic encephalomyelitis, [21] [22] and ...
Strictly considering myocarditis risk and ignoring the other severe problems from COVID-19, people under 25 years old are 7 to 37 times more likely to get myocarditis from infection with COVID-19 ...
Viral-induced dilated cardiomyopathy can be characterized using different methods. A 2011 study showed in coxsackievirus infected heart proteome , increased levels of fibrotic extracellular matrix proteins and reduced amounts of energy-producing enzymes can be observed suggesting they could be characteristic in enteroviral cardiomyopathy.
Mom struggled to breath, thought she had flu. It was viral myocarditis. She experienced cardiac arrest. Doctors worries about heart failure. A LVAD helped her.
HIV-1 virions infect cardiomyocytes in patches but there is no direct correlation between viral infection and dysfunction of cardiomyocytes. HIV-related cardiomyopathy is often not associated with any specific opportunistic infection , and approximately 40% of patients have not experienced any opportunistic infection before the onset of cardiac ...
A student athlete was diagnosed with myocarditis after receiving his COVID-19 vaccine, but here's why experts don't want people to worry. A student athlete’s TikTok went viral after he developed ...
