Na 1 and Scott Jerome 2 1 Department of Medicine, University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, United States, 2 Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, Department of Medicine, University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, United States Since the first reported case of COVID-19 in December 2019, the global landscape has shifted toward an unrecognizable paradigm. The sports world has not been immune to these ramifications; all major sports leagues have had abbreviated seasons, fan attendance has been eradicated, and athletes have opted out of entire seasons. For these athletes, cardiovascular complications of COVID-19 are particularly concerning, as myocarditis has been implicated in a significant portion of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in athletes (up to 22%).

  • Cardiac Function and Incidence of Unexplained Myocardial
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Cardiac function and incidence of unexplained myocardial scarring in patients with primary carnitine Received: 13 May 2019 Accepted: 11 September 2019 defciency - a cardiac magnetic Published: xx xx xxxx resonance study Kasper Kyhl 1,2, Tóra Róin1, Allan Lund3, Niels Vejlstrup2,4, Per Lav Madsen5,6, Thomas Engstrøm4,6 & Jan Rasmussen1,4 Primary carnitine defciency (PCD) not treated with L-Carnitine can lead to sudden cardiac death. To our knowledge, it is unknown if asymptomatic patients treated with L-Carnitine sufer from myocardial scarring and thus be at greater risk of potentially serious arrhythmia. Cardiac evaluation of function and myocardial scarring is non-invasively best supported by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) with late gadolinium enhancement (LGE). The study included 36 PCD patients, 17 carriers and 17 healthy subjects. A CMR cine stack in the short-axis plane were acquired to evaluate left ventricle (LV) systolic and diastolic function and a similar LGE stack to evaluate myocardial scarring and replacement fbrosis. LV volumes and ejection fraction were not diferent between PCD patients, carriers and healthy subjects. However, LV mass was higher in PCD patients with the severe homozygous mutation, c.95 A > G (p = 0.037; n = 17). Among homozygous PCD patients there were two cases of unexplained myocardial scarring and this is in contrast to no myocardial scarring in any of the other study participants (p = 0.10). LV mass was increased in PCD patients. L-carnitine supplementation is essential in order to prevent potentially lethal cardiac arrhythmia and serious adverse cardiac remodeling. Primary carnitine defciency (PCD) not treated with L-Carnitine can lead to sudden cardiac death1,2.
