Emerging Medical Treatment for Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common myocardial disease characterized by otherwise unexplained left ventricular hypertrophy. The main cause of disabling symptoms in patients with HCM is left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction.

Mechanism based therapies enable personalised treatment of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Cardiomyopathies have unresolved genotype–phenotype relationships and lack disease-specific treatments. Here we provide a framework to identify genotype-specific pathomechanisms and therapeutic targets to accelerate the development of precision medicine.

Is mavacamten superior to aficamten for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy? A frequentist network meta-analysis [PDF]
Background: Myosin inhibitors have been shown to improve exercise capacity and symptoms, as well as reduce the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) gradient. This study explores the efficacy of mavacamten versus aficamten in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (
