儿童病毒性心肌炎发病机制研究进展

Research progress in pathogenesis of viral myocarditis in children

儿童病毒性心肌炎(VMC)是由各种病毒直接或间接损伤引起炎性心肌病,目前发病机制仍未十分明确,对于机制的研究主要集中在病毒感染、免疫反应、宿主遗传背景和环境因素四个方面。该文就儿童VMC发病机制的相关研究进展进行简要介绍。

Viral myocarditis(VMC),also recognized as inflammatory cardiomyopathy,is a kind of disease caused by many sorts of viruses with direct or indirect injury. However,the pathogenesis of VMC is still unclear. The research in the pathogenesis mainly focuses on viral infection,immune response,host genetic background and environmental factors.The review just gives a brief introduction about the research progress in pathogenesis of pediatric VMC.
