Hospital Outcomes Among COVID-19 Hospitalizations With Myocarditis from the California State Inpatient Database.

ABSTRACT: Many case reports have indicated that myocarditis could be a prognostic factor for predicting morbidity and mortality among patients with COVID-19. In this study, using a large database we examined the association between myocarditis among COVID-19 hospitalizations and in-hospital mortality and other adverse hospital outcomes.

Propensity score matching, followed by conditional logistic regression, was performed to fin
