Dilated cardiomyopathy

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1994
The etiology and pathogenesis of dilated cardiomyopathy continues to be controversial. The importance of viral and familial etiologies is becoming increasingly recognized. Molecular biology will add significantly to our understanding of these factors in the near future.

Dilated cardiomyopathy

The Lancet, 2017
Dilated cardiomyopathy is defined by the presence of left ventricular dilatation and contractile dysfunction. Genetic mutations involving genes that encode cytoskeletal, sarcomere, and nuclear envelope proteins, among others, account for up to 35% of cases. Acquired causes include myocarditis and exposure to alcohol, drugs and toxins, and metabolic and

Dilated cardiomyopathy

The Lancet, 2010
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.

Immunoadsorption in dilated cardiomyopathy

Transfusion and Apheresis Science, 2007
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a common myocardial disease characterized by ventricular dilatation and progressive depression of myocardial contractile function. Disturbances in both humoral and cellular immunity have been described among these patients. A number of antibodies against various cardiac cell proteins have been identified in DCM.

Alcoholic dilated cardiomyopathy

Nursing Standard, 2008
This article provides an overview of alcoholic dilated cardiomyopathy. It aims to increase awareness of the condition among nurses, and help in early diagnosis and appropriate treatment referrals. The key message is that all patients with alcoholic dilated cardiomyopathy should be advised and assisted to stop drinking alcohol.

Dilated cardiomyopathy

European Heart Journal, 1984
On account of the rapidly progressive nature of the disease, the high incidence of systemic embolism and arrhythmias, and the risk of sudden death, dilated cardiomyopathy is inconsistent with aircrew duties. In the small proportion of subjects who apparently make a satisfactory recovery , re-licensing may be considered once there is no requirement for ...

Anaphylatoxins in dilated cardiomyopathy

Journal of Internal Medicine, 1993
Abstract. Objects. The aim of the study was to investigate the possible relationship between activation of complement system and thromboembolic complications in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCMP).Methods. The plasma C3a and C5a concentrations were determined by radioimmunoassay measurement (Amersham International, UK) in 23 patients with DCMP, 9 with ...

Dilated cardiomyopathy

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2001
The management of patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) heart failure starts with the determination of the underlying diagnosis, definition of the hemodynamic character (eg, systolic, diastolic, valvular, right- and left-sided heart dysfunction), recognition of complicating factors (eg, atrial fibrillation, renal dysfunction), and consideration ...

MYOCARDITIS AND DILATED CARDIOMYOPATHY

Annual Review of Medicine, 1987
The recent developments in the study of myocarditis and dilated cardiomyopathy are reviewed here, with the primary emphasis on the issue of myocarditis as a precursor to dilated cardiomyopathy. Advances in immunologic approaches have expanded our knowledge of the course of myocarditis, experimentally as well as clinically.
