The genetics of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is most commonly transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait, caused by mutations in genes encoding cardiac sarcomere proteins. Other inheritable causes of the disease include mutations in genes coding for proteins important in calcium handling or that form part of the cytoskeleton. At present, the primary clinical role

CARDIOMYOPATHY: The diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Although the pathology of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) was first described by French pathologists in the mid 19th century, it remained for the virtually simultaneous reports of Brock and Teare in England some 43 years ago to bring modern attention to this fascinating entity.1 2 Subsequent to these surgical1 and pathological2 observations, there ...

Automatic Segmentation and Disease Classification Using Cardiac Cine MR Images [PDF]
Segmentation of the heart in cardiac cine MR is clinically used to quantify cardiac function. We propose a fully automatic method for segmentation and disease classification using cardiac cine MR images. A convolutional neural network (CNN) was designed to simultaneously segment the left ventricle (LV), right ventricle (RV) and myocardium in end ...

Computational analysis of folding and mutation properties of C5 domain from Myosin binding protein C [PDF]
Thermal folding Molecular Dynamics simulations of the domain C5 from Myosin Binding Protein C were performed using a native-centric model to study the role of three mutations related to Familial Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. Mutation of Asn755 causes the largest shift of the folding temperature, and the residue is located in the CFGA' beta-sheet ...

Feature Tracking Cardiac Magnetic Resonance via Deep Learning and Spline Optimization [PDF]
Feature tracking Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) has recently emerged as an area of interest for quantification of regional cardiac function from balanced, steady state free precession (SSFP) cine sequences. However, currently available techniques lack full automation, limiting reproducibility.
