What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to: If successful, this study could reveal how COVID-19 affects the heart over a year, guiding future care and monitoring.
What could go wrong: This is an observational study, not a treatment trial, so it won't directly improve health. Results may not apply to all COVID-19 patients.
