Understanding the genetics of adult-onset dilated cardiomyopathy: what a clinician needs to know.
There is increasing understanding of the genetic basis to dilated cardiomyopathy and in this review, we offer a practical primer for the practising clinician.

Abstract Chromosome 1p36 deletion syndrome (1p36DS) is one of the most common terminal deletion syndromes (incidence between 1/5000 and 1/10,000 live births in the American population), due to a heterozygous deletion of part of the short arm of chromosome 1.

Expanding the deep-learning model to diagnosis LVNC: Limitations and trade-offs [PDF]
Hyper-trabeculation or non-compaction in the left ventricle of the myocardium (LVNC) is a recently classified form of cardiomyopathy. Several methods have been proposed to quantify the trabeculae accurately in the left ventricle, but there is no general agreement in the medical community to use a particular approach.

Genetics of Dilated Cardiomyopathy
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is defined as dilation and/or reduced function of one or both ventricles and remains a common disease worldwide. An estimated 40% of cases of familial DCM have an identifiable genetic cause. Accordingly, there is a fast-growing interest in the field of molecular genetics as it pertains to DCM. Many gene mutations have been

Mitochondrial Function and Dysfunction in Dilated Cardiomyopathy
Cardiac tissue requires a persistent production of energy in order to exert its pumping function. Therefore, the maintenance of this function relies on mitochondria that represent the “powerhouse” of all cardiac activities.

Schematic diagram showing RHAU can bind and unwind the G4 “knots” to modulate embryonic development and post‐natal organ function. Deficiency of RHAU gives rise to embryonic lethality, impaired organogenesis and organ dysfunction. RHAU modulates Nkx2‐5 mRNA and Yap1 mRNA at the post‐transcriptional level and facilitates the transcription of c‐Kit and ...

Dilated cardiomyopathy is characterised by left ventricular dilation that is associated with systolic dysfunction. Diastolic dysfunction and impaired right ventricular function can develop. Affected individuals are at risk of left or right ventricular failure, or both. Heart failure symptoms can be exercise-induced or persistent at rest.

NON ISCHEMIC CARDIOMYOPATHY – A CASE REPORT
Cardiomyopathies are a group of diseases characterized by the structural and functional abnormalities of the heart muscles in the absence of other illnesses that might be responsible for the observed myocardial anomaly.

Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is an important cause of heart failure and the leading indication for heart transplantation. Many rare genetic variants have been associated with DCM, but common variant studies of the disease have yielded few associated loci.
