Sure...
I'm a big picture guy and find that drilling down to exact detail sometimes approximates missing the point. But here are a few more examples of heart problems and kidney problems...
Let's not miss the forest for the trees.
Quote:
"Some children had clinical and laboratory signs of cytokine storm syndrome, an exaggerated systemic immune response that has caused organ damage in adults with COVID-19.
Finally, many children had coagulopathies; cardiac dysfunction; diarrhea, abdominal distension, and other GI symptoms (with some children having positive stool tests for SARS-CoV-2); or acute kidney injury. Respiratory symptoms were not always a prominent feature."
And further,
"Echocardiography: Children with this syndrome should have serial echocardiograms including detailed assessment of the coronary arteries. Many to date have been found to have low heart function, and some have enlargement of the coronary arteries. Children with serious cardiac complications should be followed longer-term."
