Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging revealed cardiac involvement in 78 patients and heart muscle inflammation in 60 patients, independent of pre-existing conditions.<\/p>\n<p>The patients were identified from the University Hospital Frankfurt COVID-19 Registry from April to June. Researchers said 33 patients were severely ill and needed hospitalization, while two of the patients underwent mechanical ventilation.<\/p>\n<p>Detectable levels of troponin, a type of protein found in the muscles of the heart, were found in 71 patients and high levels (indicating heart damage) were found in five patients. Biopsies of heart muscle tissue in patients with \u201csevere findings\u201d showed active inflammation, the study authors said.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16059229\"><img alt=\"A 72-year-old recovered coronavirus patient uses an exercise bike at the Department of Rehabilitative Cardiology of ASL 3 Genova in Genoa, Italy. \" data- data- height=\"441\" width=\"662\"><\/img><figcaption><span>A 72-year-old recovered coronavirus patient uses an exercise bike at the Department of Rehabilitative Cardiology of ASL 3 Genova in Genoa, Italy.<\/span><span>Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In a second study involving autopsies from 39 COVID-19 cases, researchers found a presence of viral infection within the myocardium or the middle, muscular layer of the heart, in 24 patients.<\/p>\n<p>The deceased patients were autopsied at the Institute of Legal Medicine at the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf from April 8 to 18.<\/p>\n<p>The patients\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a>n age was 85 years and pneumonia was listed as the cause of death for 90 percent of them.
