Abstract:
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) is a severe, acute, reversible, and self-limited cardiac dysfunction. It usually affects postmenopausal women and is mostly triggered by physical or emotional stressors. Following the COVID-19 pandemic, millions of doses of different types of COVID-19 vaccines are being administered globally. There have been reports of different cardiac complications after receiving COVID-19 vaccines. To our knowledge, there have been 16 reported cases of COVID-19 vaccination-associated TTC. In this study, we first provide a brief overview of TTC and then an overview of selected reported TTC cases following COVID-19 vaccinations. It is crucial to highlight that the occurrence of TTC after vaccination does not establish a direct cause-and-effect relationship between immunization and TTC. Further investigations are necessary to examine any potential association between COVID-19 vaccines and the incidence of TTC. Additionally, the benefits of receiving COVID-19 vaccines significantly outweigh the potential risks of developing adverse events.
摘要:
Takotsubo心肌病(TTC)是一种严重的,急性,可逆,和自我限制的心脏功能障碍。它通常影响绝经后妇女,主要是由身体或情绪压力触发。在COVID-19大流行之后,全球正在接种数百万剂不同类型的COVID-19疫苗。有报道称接受COVID-19疫苗后出现不同的心脏并发症。据我们所知,已报告16例COVID-19疫苗接种相关TTC病例。在这项研究中,我们首先对TTC进行简要概述,然后对COVID-19疫苗接种后报告的部分TTC病例进行概述.至关重要的是,疫苗接种后TTC的发生并没有在免疫接种和TTC之间建立直接的因果关系。有必要进一步调查以检查COVID-19疫苗与TTC发病率之间的任何潜在关联。此外,接受COVID-19疫苗的益处显著大于发生不良事件的潜在风险.
