Abstract: BackgroundSARS-CoV-2 infection might be associated with cardiac complications in low-risk populations, such as in competitive athletes. However, data obtained in adults cannot be directly transferred to preadolescents and adolescents who are less susceptible to adverse clinical outcomes and are often asymptomatic.ObjectivesWe conducted this prospective multicentre study to describe the incidence of cardiovascular complications following SARS-CoV-2 infection in a large cohort of junior athletes and to examine t… Show more

“…Of the remaining 27 journal articles evaluated as full text, 1 was excluded because the language was not English; 1 because of analyzing the same population; 3 because the populations studied were not athletes; 1 because the item was not myocardial injury; and 6 because CMR Lake and Louise criteria were missing, or it was not specified whether they had been used (CMR was not performed). Finally, 15 [ 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 ] studies were included for a total of 7988 athletes (29.9% female), but only 2390 athletes had a CMR study. Agreement among reviewers was excellent, with a kappa statistic of 0.90.…”
