Abstract:Introduction:
COVID-19 infection and vaccines are associated with acute myocarditis. However, the relative risk of myocarditis is not fully characterized. The aim of this study is to compare the risk ratio (RR) of myocarditis in COVID-19 vaccines and SARS-CoV-2 infection groups and to delineate the effect modifiers.
Hypothesis:
Risk ratio of myocarditis is higher in the infection group than in the vaccinated group, and this risk is modified by age and s… Show more
