Considerations for drug trials in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Abstract Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a heterogeneous condition with potentially serious manifestations. Management has traditionally comprised therapies to palliate symptoms and implantable cardioverter‐defibrillators to prevent sudden cardiac death. The need for disease‐modifying therapies has been recognized for decades.

FDG PET/CT imaging and circulating biomarkers of inflammation in desmoplakin cardiomyopathy
Abstract Aims Inflammation has been implicated in the pathogenesis of desmoplakin (DSP) cardiomyopathy, and retrospective studies have described abnormal myocardial fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) findings in symptomatic patients eventually diagnosed with DSP cardiomyopathy.

Homocysteine And Recurrent Miscarriage
Background: It is known that etiological structure of recurrent miscarriage has genetic, anatomical, infectious and immunological factors; however, the cause of recurrent miscarriage in 50-60% of cases is not completely clear. Homocysteine is a sulfur-containing intermediate product in the normal metabolism of methionine.

Abstract Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is defined by heart failure (HF) with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of at least 50%. HFpEF has a complex and heterogeneous pathophysiology with multiple co‐morbidities contributing to its presentation. Establishing the diagnosis of HFpEF can be challenging.

A Generalized Mixture Cure Model Incorporating Known Cured Individuals [PDF]
The Mixture Cure (MC) models constitute an appropriate and easily interpretable method when studying a time-to-event variable in a population comprised of both susceptible and cured individuals. In literature, those models usually assume that the latter are unobservable. However, there are cases in which a cured individual may be identified.

Abstract Aims A novel marker left atrioventricular coupling index (LACI) has been proved to be associated with cardiovascular events in patients without history of cardiovascular disease. However, the studies on cardiac magnetic resonance‐derived LACI in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients are limited, and the prognostic value of LACI has still ...

Genetic evolution of a multi-generational population in the context of interstellar space travels -- Part II: Phenotypic effects of gene expression [PDF]
In the first paper of this series, we included the effects of population genetics in the agent-based Monte Carlo code HERITAGE under the hypothesis of neutral phenotypic effects. It implied that mutations (genetic changes) had only neutral physical manifestations.
