Clinical Outcomes of Myocarditis after Moderate-Dose Steroid Therapy in Systemic Sclerosis: A Pilot Study.
Conclusions: Moderate-dose steroid therapy may improve myocarditis in SSc. A proportion of patients died due to cardiac complications during treatment, particularly those with high hs-cTnT, high NT-proBNP, and impaired LVEF. This trial is registered with NCT03607071.

Characteristics and Outcomes of Patients 80 Years and Older Hospitalized With Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)
Patients older than 65 years hospitalized with COVID-19 have higher rates of intensive care unit admission and death when compared with younger patients. Cardiovascular conditions associated with COVID-19 include myocardial injury, acute myocarditis, cardiac arrhythmias, cardiomyopathies, cardiogenic shock, thromboembolic disease, and cardiac arrest. Few studies have described the clinical course of those at the upper extreme of age. We characterize the clinical course and outcomes of 73 patients with 80 years of age or older hospitalized at an academic center between March 15 and May 13, 2020. These patients had multiple ...

Pharmacological and cardiovascular perspectives on the treatment of COVID-19 with chloroquine derivatives.
Abstract
The novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and an ongoing severe pandemic. Curative drugs specific for COVID-19 are currently lacking. Chloroquine phosphate and its derivative hydroxychloroquine, which have been used in the treatment and prevention of malaria and autoimmune diseases for decades, were found to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 infection with high potency in vitro and have shown clinical and virologic benefits in COVID-19 patients. Therefore, chloroquine phosphate was first used in the treatment of COVID-19 in China. Later, under a lim...

Fully automated quantification of left ventricular volumes and function in cardiac MRI: clinical evaluation of a deep learning-based algorithm
AbstractTo investigate the performance of a deep learning-based algorithm for fully automated quantification of left ventricular (LV) volumes and function in cardiac MRI. We retrospectively analysed MR examinations of 50 patients (74% men, median age 57 years). The most common indications were known or suspected ischemic heart disease, cardiomyopathies or myocarditis. Fully automated analysis of LV volumes and function was performed using a deep learning-based algorithm. The analysis was subsequently corrected by a senior cardiovascular radiologi st. Manual volumetric analysis was performed by two radiology trainees. Vol...

The Role of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance in Inflammatory Arthropathies and Systemic Rheumatic Diseases
AbstractPurpose of the ReviewIn this review, the role of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR), magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) in the diagnosis, risk stratification, management and prognostication of inflammatory arthropathies and systemic rheumatic diseases (IASRD) is discussed. There have been several recent publications and it is timely to place into perspective the rapidly evolving concepts of advanced imaging in IASRDs through review and critical appraisal of the literature. IASRD are multisystemic autoimmune disorders with predilection for cardiovascular involvement a...
