Diagnosis of cardiomyopathies: tips and tricks for internists and general practitioners
Cardiomyopathies are little known to internists and general practitioners (GPs), and not always able to arouse the interest of cardiologists. Probably, this happens because cardiomyopathies are perceived as rare and complex disorders, a prerogative of a ...

Antithrombotic treatment in cardiomyopathies
Cardiomyopathies are a heterogeneous group of heart muscle diseases and important cause of heart failure with reduced or preserved ejection fraction. Although there is an increasing body of evidence on the incidence, pathophysiology, and natural history ...

Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is an inherited cardiac disorder that causes sudden cardiac death and progressive heart failure. Besides fibro-fatty replacement and myocyte degenerative changes, inflammatory patchy infiltrates are found in myocardial

Current Perspectives on Cardiomyopathies
Advances in the understanding of cardiomyopathies and the growth of cardiology have paralleled one another. Over the years, many classification methods have been developed for cardiomyopathies based on aetiology, structural models and the functional ...

The Genetic Bases of Cardiomyopathies [PDF]
Cardiomyopathies represent an important cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality due to heart failure, arrhythmias, and sudden death. A majority of hypertrophic cardiomyopathies (HCM) and at least 30% of dilated cardiomyopathies (DCM) are familial

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe and progressive form of muscular dystrophy caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene. We previously observed that loss of dystrophin in human induced pluripotent stem cell–derived cardiac fibroblasts (hiPSC ...

BACKGROUND: Anthracycline cardiotoxicity (AC) may manifest years after treatment (long-term cardiotoxicity). There is little data on the incidence and natural history of AC in the current context, with protocols including lower anthracycline doses.

Role of cardiac MRI in nonischemic cardiomyopathies
Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) with its higher spatial resolution is considered the gold standard for evaluating ventricular mass, volumes, and ejection fraction. CMR can be used for accurate diagnosis of several conditions, especially cardiomyopathies.

Non-familial cardiomyopathies in Lebanon: exome sequencing results for five idiopathic cases
Background Cardiomyopathies affect more than 0.5% of the general population. They are associated with high risk of sudden cardiac death, which can result from either heart failure or electrical abnormalities.
