Long-term cardiovascular outcomes among patients with COVID-19 after exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation remain largely unknown. This study aimed to investigate the long-term cardiovascular outcomes of COVID-19 survivors after exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation using real-world data.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Materials and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We analyzed the data from the US Collaborative Network of the TriNetX Research Database. Adults aged \u226518 years who were diagnosed with COVID-19 between 2020 and 2022 were enrolled in this study. The comparison comprised a cohort of patients receiving exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation and 1:1 propensity score-matched controls.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n
