Convalescent COVID-19 patients are susceptible to endothelial dysfunction due to persistent immune activation

Convalescent COVID-19 patients are susceptible to endothelial dysfunction due to persistent immune activation

Numerous reports of vascular events after an initial recovery from COVID-19 form our impetus to investigate the impact of COVID-19 on vascular health of recovered patients. We found elevated levels of circulating endothelial cells (CECs), a biomarker of vascular injury, in COVID-19 convalescents com...
