Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a myocardial disease characterized by myocardial hypertrophy, disorganization of cardiac myocytes, and fibrosis. Twenty-five percent of patients have a dynamic left ventricular outflow tract gradient caused by the combined effects of rapid ventricular ejection, a narrowed outflow tract, and systolic anterior motion of the

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a primary disease affecting the cardiac muscle and is characterized by heterogeneous genetic, morphological, functional and clinical features. The clinical presentation of HCM varies widely. Patients may be completely asymptomatic and identified incidentally.

Sudden cardiac death in young athletes: Literature review of molecular basis [PDF]
Intense athletic training and competition can rarely result in sudden cardiac death (SCD). Despite the introduction of pre-participation cardiovascular screening, especially among young competitive athletes, sport-related SCD remains a debated issue ...

Feline Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: A Spontaneous Large Animal Model of Human HCM. [PDF]
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common disease in pet cats, affecting 10-15% of the pet cat population. The similarity to human HCM, the rapid progression of disease, and the defined and readily determined endpoints of feline HCM make it an ...

Myocardial fibrosis as an early manifestation of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Myocardial fibrosis is a hallmark of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and a proposed substrate for arrhythmias and heart failure. In animal models, profibrotic genetic pathways are activated early, before hypertrophic remodeling.

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 ...

A next-generation sequencing approach to identify gene mutations in early-and late-onset hypertrophic cardiomyopathy patients of an Italian cohort [PDF]
Sequencing of sarcomere protein genes in patients fulfilling the clinical diagnostic criteria for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) identifies a disease-causing mutation in 35% to 60% of cases.
