The association between hypocalcemia and heart failure is rare. There are few reported cases in the literature of this association, which is termed hypocalcemic cardiomyopathy. We report the case of a 61-year-old woman with no relevant medical history, admitted for progressively worsening exertional dyspnea, orthopnea and edema of the lower limbs for a

Molecular genetics of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy in South Africa
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a heritable disorder characterised by progressive degeneration of the right ventricular myocardium, arrhythmias and an increased risk of sudden death at a young age. Fourteen chromosomal loci have

ABSTRACT Arrhythmias affect approximately half of patients with Costello syndrome (CS, OMIM # 218040), with non‐reentrant atrial tachycardia being the most common. This case describes an infant with Costello syndrome carrying the pathogenic HRAS c.34G>A (p.G12S) variant who developed early‐onset, drug‐refractory multifocal atrial tachycardia (MAT ...

ABSTRACT U2 small nuclear RNA auxiliary factor 2 (U2AF2) is an essential pre‐mRNA splicing factor involved in the early stages of pre‐mRNA splicing. To date, multiple individuals have been reported with predominantly heterozygous missense variants presenting intellectual disability, speech and motor delays, seizures, hypotonia, and thin or hypoplastic ...

ABSTRACT Myhre syndrome is an ultrarare genetic disease characterized by short stature, distinct craniofacial features, cardiovascular and respiratory fibrosis and stenosis, neurodevelopmental delays, autism, intellectual disability, and hearing loss. The natural history of Myhre syndrome is still not fully understood due to a small patient population ...

Therapy for Myhre Syndrome: Goals, Misconceptions, and Current Agents
ABSTRACT Myhre Syndrome (MYHRS, MIM #139210) is a rare, multisystem connective tissue disorder caused by recurrent heterozygous gain‐of‐function pathogenic variants in the SMAD4 gene, a key player in TGF‐β signaling and a regulator of extracellular matrix homeostasis.
