Limitations of the study
This study has several limitations. First of all, the sample size was
small, and the study had a retrospective design. In addition, values
such as CRP and troponin, which are associated with subclinical
myocardial damage, were not followed up serially. The ECGs of the
patients at initial diagnosis were examined, while positive or negative
T wave changes on ECGs were not examined. The medical treatments of the
patients were not questioned in detail and their post-treatment ECG
changes were not investigated. A prospective study with a large number
of patients is needed to validate the results of this study.
