ICD Outcome in Pediatric Cardiomyopathies

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2022
Background: Pediatric patients with cardiomyopathies are at risk of malignant arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death (SCD). An ICD may prevent SCD. The aim of this study was to evaluate ICD implantation outcomes, and to compare transvenous and subcutaneous

CARDIOMYOPATHY: The cardiomyopathies: an overview [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 2000
The recent revision (table 1) of the definition of a cardiomyopathy by the World Health Organization1 recognises that ventricular dysfunction can result from a failure to correct volume or pressure overload in valve disease or to control hypertension. Loss of myocardium caused by coronary artery disease also leads to severe ventricular dysfunction. All

Abnormal ECG Findings in Athletes: Clinical Evaluation and Considerations. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Pre-participation cardiovascular evaluation with electrocardiography is normal practice for most sporting bodies. Awareness about sudden cardiac death in athletes and recognizing how screening can help identify vulnerable athletes have

Testosterone, cardiomyopathies, and heart failure: a narrative review

open access: yesAsian Journal of Andrology, 2021
Testosterone exerts an important regulation of cardiovascular function through genomic and nongenomic pathways. It produces several changes in cardiomyocytes, the main actor of cardiomyopathies, which are characterized by pathological remodeling ...

A green tea extract catechin EGCg: Therapeutic potential for pediatric cardiomyopathies

open access: yesPediatric Discovery, 2023
Cardiomyopathies comprise a group of disorders wherein the primary defect is in cardiac myocytes. The common forms of pediatric cardiomyopathies, classified according to their morphological and functional manifestations, include dilated cardiomyopathy ...

Investigating the role of uncoupling of troponin I phosphorylation from changes in myofibrillar Ca(2+)-sensitivity in the pathogenesis of cardiomyopathy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Contraction in the mammalian heart is controlled by the intracellular Ca2+ concentration as it is in all striated muscle, but the heart has an additional signalling system that comes into play to increase heart rate and cardiac output during exercise or ...
