COVID-19 Pandemic Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Long-term Effects of the Covid-19 Infection on Cardiac Symptoms, Should We Have a Realistic Concern?
From the registry of professor Kojuri clinic , those with Covid-19 infection were selected and was contacted and asked about the cardiovascular symptoms, 1 year after the covid infection
This retrospective cohort study was conducted between October 2020 to May 2021. The study population was patients referring to Professor Kojuri Cardiovascular Clinic in Shiraz, Iran (email: kojurij@yahoo.com, webpage: http://kojuriclinic.com). A database of patients' information is available, including underlying diseases, signs and symptoms, medications, laboratory tests, electrocardiography, and echocardiography. The data is documented by expert cardiologists on every patient's visit. The inclusion criteria were having a history of COVID-19 infection confirmed by PCR or suggested by HRCT findings and having been afflicted with COVID-19 at least one year ago. The exclusion criteria were having a history of documented COVID-19 infection, which occurred less than a year ago, and having a probable history of COVID-19 not confirmed by PCR or HRCT. Patients' information before COVID-19 infection was extracted from the database, including baseline demographic data, COVID-19 vaccination history, hypertension (HTN), dyslipidemia (or hyperlipidemia (HLP)), diabetes mellitus (DM), smoking, CVD, and prescribed medications. Patients with incomplete data before COVID-19 or with outdated data were excluded. We contacted the enrolled patients to get informed about their symptoms, such as dyspnea at rest, dyspnea on exertion (DOE), orthopnea, paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea (PND) 21, chest pain (CP) 22, fatigue 23, and palpitations 24. Patients were asked to rate their dyspnea at rest from 0 to 10, according to the 10-category ratio. A score of zero means no breathing discomfort, and ten indicates the most severe dyspnea. A score between 1 to 4 was considered mild, 5 to 6 moderate, and 7 to 10 severe. We also used functional class 1 to 4 to assess their dyspnea. Functional class 1 means no limitations in daily activities, functional class 2 means mild exertional dyspnea, functional class 3 indicates moderate dyspnea with daily activities, and functional class 4 figures dyspnea at rest 25. Chest pain was defined, based on the American heart association 2021, as "noncardiac," "possible cardiac," and "cardiac" 22. A history of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) during a year follow-up of COVID-19 infection and admission due to COVID-19 were also reported. MACE is defined as myocardial infarction (MI), admission due to heart failure (HF), stroke, cardiac death, and revascularization procedures, including coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) 26. HTN is defined as clinic SBP ≥140 mm Hg or DBP ≥90 mm Hg in repeated assessment 27. DM is diagnosed based on the American diabetes association (ADA) 2020 guidelines 28. Dyslipidemia is defined as abnormalities in TG, LDL, or HDL cholesterol. A TG level of more than 150 mg/dL is considered abnormal. HDL less than 40 mg/dL, LDL more than 100mg/dL, or is defined as dyslipidemia 29. Current smokers are defined as those who have smoked ≥100 cigarettes and smoked during the 30 days preceding the study. Former smokers have stopped smoking more than 30 days before the research 30. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS for Windows ver. 26 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA). We described continuous variables by mean ±standard deviation. Categorical variables were described by frequency and percentage. We used repeated measure ANOVA and paired-sample t-test for normal distribution variables and Wilcoxon signed-rank test for repeated categorical variables. Pearson's chi-squared test and Kruskal-Wallis test are applied to categorical data. We controlled the effects of confounding factors by using generalized linear models and repeating analyses by different subgroups. Statistical significance was indicated when P<0.05. All patients were informed about the details of this research and provided their informed consent. Patients who declined to participate in the study were excluded ;
