Oregon Health & Science University is Oregon’s only academic health center and is nationally distinguished as a research university dedicated solely to advancing health sciences. This allows us to focus on discoveries to prevent and cure disease, on education that prepares the health care and health science professionals of the future, and on patient care that incorporates the latest advances.
Parsing the risk of myocarditis from viral infection versus vaccination is challenging, and researchers are intensely studying the various factors that are at play.
La myocardite consécutive à la vaccination contre la Covid-19 est rare, et les conséquences peu graves. Le risque de lésions cardiaques plus lourdes est tout autre en cas d'infection au Covid-19.
Des chercheurs ont découvert que des variations dans les gènes qui codent certaines parties du système d'alarme cellulaire pourraient jouer un rôle dans la manière dont les gens combattent la Covid-19
Researchers from Oregon Health and Science University found that variations in genes that code for parts of the cellular alarm system might play a role in how well people fight off COVID-19.
