COVID-19 and Myositis: What We Know So Far - Current Rheumatology Reports Purpose Myositis as a rare manifestation of COVID-19 is only recently being reported. This review examines the current literature on COVID-19-induced myositis focusing on etiopathogenesis, clinical pr...

The exact mechanisms by which #COVID causes #myopathy are still under investigation, but several factors are thought to contribute:
- Direct viral injury: The virus can bind to ACE2 receptors, which are present on skeletal muscle tissue, potentially causing direct damage to muscle fibers.

#Medsky🧪 #IDsky #Autoimmunity #immunosky #Publichealth Several #casereports have documented instances of acute viral induced #myopathy from #postcovid ,highlighting muscle pain, weakness & elevated muscle enzymes as common features.

14 8 3 2

The 2025 meta-analysis found a small but significant increase in #myopathy (0.6% vs. 0%) but no significant difference in liver enzyme abnormalities (1.0% vs. 1.4%).
Older meta-analyses & systematic reviews also reported no significant increase in ⏫️ liver enzyme levels associated with statin use
