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.

Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Important insights into the molecular basis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and related diseases have been gained by studying families with inherited cardiac hypertrophy. Integrated clinical and genetic investigations have demonstrated that different genetic defects can give rise to the common phenotype of cardiac hypertrophy. Diverse pathways have been

Availability and Utilization of Automated External Defibrillators in New York State Schools
Background: Use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCAs) improve survival. Professional health organizations recommend that AEDs be available in crowded places, including schools but currently only 18 US ...

Differences in molecular phenotype in mouse and human hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is characterized by phenotypic heterogeneity. We investigated the molecular basis of the cardiac phenotype in two mouse models at established disease stage (mouse-HCM), and human myectomy tissue (human-HCM).

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common monogenic heart disease affecting at least 1 in 500 people worldwide. The hallmark of the disease is left ventricular hypertrophy in the absence of cardiac or systemic disease that may cause hypertrophy. The disease can present at any age and is highly variable.

COVID-19 in Adults With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Background: Individuals with cardiovascular disease are considered high risk for severe COVID-19. However, the clinical impact of COVID-19 in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is unknown.

Weight loss in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: A clinical case series
Background: Obesity is prevalent among patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Obese HCM patients have greater wall thickness, LV mass, worse hemodynamic function and NYHA class. Weight loss may favorably influence the HCM phenotype.
