Anticoagulation in Dilated Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Patients with dilated cardiomyopathy have multiple factors that predispose to thromboembolic events. However, reports of the incidence of thromboembolic events in this population vary widely. There has never been a controlled study of long-term anticoagulation among patients with congestive heart failure due to dilated cardiomyopathy. In this report we

Autosomal Recessive Dilated Cardiomyopathy due to DOLK Mutations Results from Abnormal Dystroglycan O-Mannosylation [PDF]
Genetic causes for autosomal recessive forms of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) are only rarely identified, although they are thought to contribute considerably to sudden cardiac death and heart failure, especially in young children.

A Rare Case of Coexisting Mutation in Desmin and Thioredoxin Reductase 2 Genes Causing Dilated Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Desmin (DES) maintains the overall structure of cardiomyocytes and cytoskeletal organization within striated muscle cells. Mitochondrial thioredoxin reductase 2 (TXNRD-2) is essential for mitochondrial oxygen radical scavenging.
