Summary
This study looked at 20 children under 18 who were in the intensive care unit with heart inflammation (myocarditis) and fever, possibly linked to COVID-19. The goal was to describe their symptoms and test results, and to figure out whether the virus directly damages the heart or if the body's own immune response causes the problem. This research helps doctors better understand this rare but serious condition.
