Efficacy and safety of cardiac myosin inhibitors for symptomatic hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials [PDF]
IntroductionHypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common genetic heart disorder. It is characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy and impaired cardiac function, with forms categorized into obstructive (oHCM) and nonobstructive (nHCM).
