Global, regional, and national burden of myocarditis in children aged 0–14 years, 1990–2021: analysis for the global burden of disease study 2021
Between 1990 and 2021, myocarditis in children saw declining mortality and DALYs but rising incidence, especially in males. Children under 1 year face higher mortality and DALY rates despite lower incidence, stressing early diagnosis. High SDI regions report higher incidence but lower mortality, while low SDI areas need standardized treatment. Japan had the highest 2021 incidence, and China had the most deaths. Underscoring the urgency for enhanced medical resources, comprehensive research into the disease's etiology, and improved prevention strategies.
