Acute Left Ventricular Ballooning: Tools to Differentiate Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy with Outflow Obstruction from Neurohumoral Takotsubo Syndrome

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Despite considerable interest in the syndrome of acute left ventricular (LV) ballooning, its pathophysiology has remained ill-defined. In this review, we explore observational data describing two etiologies of acute LV ballooning: neurohumoral classic ...

Extreme hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 2003
A 21 year old Jamaican woman with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) was referred for sudden death risk assessment. The initial diagnosis of HCM was made at the age of 13 years and mild exertional dyspnoea has occurred since age 15 (New York Heart Association functional class II), but without syncope or chest pain. There is no …

Seipin‐Mediated Lipid Droplet Formation in Cardiomyocytes Ameliorates Cardiac Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Lipid droplets (LDs) protect the heart against lipotoxicity in cardiac ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury; however, they are insufficient to prevent cardiomyocyte death. Seipin plays a central role in the insufficient formation of LDs, subsequent lipotoxicity, and myocardial injury during cardiac I/R injury.

Echocardiographic Changes Following Surgical Myectomy in Severely Symptomatic Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: Insights From the SPIRIT‐HCM Study

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background In obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, myectomy improves symptoms, quality of life, and left ventricular (LV) outflow tract gradients. We prospectively evaluated the temporal changes in various echo parameters after myectomy.
