240 LBBM, OBBM Hypertension Palpitations, heart failure, chest discomfort, presyncope, and syncope are all possible manifestations of supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias, which can arise throughout the subacute and chronic phases of the condition. Myocardial damage CT NR
2 Rivero et al. [139]
(2020)
01 LBBM, OBBM NR In the context of the pro-inflammatory response to the disease, cardiovascular disease (CV) may be a source of myocardial damage in people who have been infected with SARS-COVID-19. An extreme elevation of the ST segment that resulted in myocardial damage or infarction has been observed on several occasions. ECG NR

21 LBBM Diabetes Myocardial damage in people who have been infected with SARS-COVID-19. Patients who require emergency coronary artery bypass grafting, repair of an aortic dissection, or replacement of the aortic valve CT NR

180 LBBM, OBBM High BMI Inflammation persists over time and raises the risk of atherosclerotic disease as well as acute proinflammatory situations like the cytokine storm. Patients with CAD who were treated with COVID-19 had a higher risk of myocardial damage. CT NR
5 Afshar et al. [142] (2021) 23 LBBM Diabetes The histological finding of diffuse endothelial inflammation in the submucosal arteries of the small intestine in COVID-19 patients is suggestive of the occurrence of microvascular small-bowel injury. Myocardial Infarction CT NR
6 Catapano et al. [143] (2021) 12 LBBM hypertension Complications of the heart include things like myocarditis, acute coronary syndrome, and thromboembolic events, amongst others. Endothelial Inflammation in the submucosal arteries of the small intestine CT NR
