Shared genetic pathways contribute to risk of hypertrophic and dilated cardiomyopathies with opposite directions of effect

open access: greenNature Genetics, 2021
The heart muscle diseases hypertrophic (HCM) and dilated (DCM) cardiomyopathies are leading causes of sudden death and heart failure in young, otherwise healthy, individuals. We conducted genome-wide association studies and multi-trait analyses in HCM (1,

Cardiomyopathies: Temporal Review and Genetic Determination [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedicines
Cardiomyopathies are a heterogeneous group of diseases of the myocardium associated with dysfunction, with or without a structural substrate. They are frequently genetically determined. The dysfunction may be mechanical, both of the systole and diastole,

Overview of Cardiomyopathies in Childhood

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2021
Paediatric cardiomyopathies are a heterogenous group of rare disorders, characterised by mechanical and electrical abnormalities of the heart muscle. The overall annual incidence of childhood cardiomyopathies is estimated at about 1 per 100,000 children ...

Reversible Cardiomyopathies

open access: yesClinical Medicine Insights: Cardiology, 2015
Cardiomyopathies (CMs) have many etiological factors that can result in severe structural and functional dysregulation. Fortunately, there are several potentially reversible CMs that are known to improve when the root etiological factor is addressed.

Validation of the new American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association Guidelines for the risk stratification of sudden cardiac death in a large Mediterranean cohort with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesHellenic Journal of Cardiology, 2022
Background: The aim of our study was to assess the performance of the new American College of Cardiology (ACC)/American Heart Association (AHA) Guidelines, with respect to sudden cardiac death (SCD) prevention, in comparison with the established risk ...

Survival of patients with cardiomyopathies [PDF]

open access: yesБългарска кардиология, 2021
Cardiomyopathies are a heterogeneous group of diseases. The main pathogenetic mechanism is myocardial damage due to genetic mutations. Cardiomyopathies are one of the leading causes of heart failure, sudden cardiac death, and life-threatening arrhythmias.
