Restrictive cardiomyopathy: from genetics and clinical overview to animal modeling
Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM), a potentially devastating heart muscle disorder, is characterized by diastolic dysfunction due to abnormal muscle relaxation and myocardial stiffness resulting in restrictive filling of the ventricles.

Restrictive cardiomyopathy: definition and diagnosis [PDF]
Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by restrictive left ventricular pathophysiology, i.e. a rapid rise in ventricular pressure with only small increases in filling volume due to increased myocardial ...

Genetic Restrictive Cardiomyopathy: Causes and Consequences—An Integrative Approach
The sarcomere as the smallest contractile unit is prone to alterations in its functional, structural and associated proteins. Sarcomeric dysfunction leads to heart failure or cardiomyopathies like hypertrophic (HCM) or restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM ...

Genetic Insights into Primary Restrictive Cardiomyopathy
Restrictive cardiomyopathy is a rare cardiac disease causing severe diastolic dysfunction, ventricular stiffness and dilated atria. In consequence, it induces heart failure often with preserved ejection fraction and is associated with a high mortality ...

Clinical Outcomes and Genetic Analyses of Restrictive Cardiomyopathy in Children
BACKGROUND: Restrictive cardiomyopathy in children is rare and outcomes are very poor. However, little information is available concerning genotype-outcome correlations.

Focus on Paediatric Restrictive Cardiomyopathy: Frequently Asked Questions [PDF]
Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is characterized by restrictive ventricular pathophysiology determined by increased myocardial stiffness. While suspicion of RCM is initially raised by clinical evaluation and supported by electrocardiographic and ...

Case Report: Filamin C gene mutation associated with restrictive cardiomyopathy leading to heart transplantation [PDF]
BackgroundCardiomyopathy is a disease that affects the myocardium and can be classified as dilated, restrictive, or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Among the subtypes, restrictive cardiomyopathy is characterized by restriction of ventricular filling and its

Pediatric restrictive cardiomyopathy: a case report [PDF]
Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is a rare childhood cardiomyopathy that is a challenging diagnostic problem for clinicians. We describe a case of an 8-year-old girl with a 2-year history of shortness of breath on exertion.
