Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common inherited cardiac disease. The disease is characterized by marked variability in morphological expression and natural history, ranging from asymptomatic to heart failure or sudden cardiac death. Left ventricular hypertrophy and abnormal ventricular configuration result in dynamic left ventricular ...

Availability and Utilization of Automated External Defibrillators in New York State Schools
Background: Use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCAs) improve survival. Professional health organizations recommend that AEDs be available in crowded places, including schools but currently only 18 US ...

Differences in molecular phenotype in mouse and human hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is characterized by phenotypic heterogeneity. We investigated the molecular basis of the cardiac phenotype in two mouse models at established disease stage (mouse-HCM), and human myectomy tissue (human-HCM).

COVID-19 in Adults With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Background: Individuals with cardiovascular disease are considered high risk for severe COVID-19. However, the clinical impact of COVID-19 in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is unknown.

Weight loss in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: A clinical case series
Background: Obesity is prevalent among patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Obese HCM patients have greater wall thickness, LV mass, worse hemodynamic function and NYHA class. Weight loss may favorably influence the HCM phenotype.
