Abstract
En 中文
Infection with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARSCoV-2), the virus which causes the corona virus disease-2019 (COVID-19) has substantial evidence that patients with pre-existing coronary artery disease (CAD) have an increased risk of serious illness, adverse coronary events, and mortality following infection. The COVID-CT registry will assess whether COVID-19 alters progression of coronary atherosclerotic plaque in patients with previously defined anatomic CAD on coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA). Mediators and covariates such as disease severity, inflammation, and neighborhood deprivation will also be assessed.
