Post-acute COVID-19 syndrome: prevalence of peripheral microvascular endothelial dysfunction and associations with NT-proBNP dynamics
Post-acute COVID-19 syndrome (PACS) has been linked to microvascular endothelial dysfunction as a potential underlying pathomechanism and can manifest even following a mild course of the initial infection. Prevalence of microvascular endothelial dysfunction and circulating natriuretic peptides in such PACS patients remains unknown.
