Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a heart muscle disease characterized by ventricular
dilatation and impaired systolic function. Patients with DCM suffer from heart failure …

Importance Idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) aggregates in families, and early
detection in at-risk family members can provide opportunity to initiate treatment prior to late …

This review provides the rationale for integrating genomic and protein biomarkers in the
evolving diagnosis and management of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and its causal …

Cardiomyopathies are diseases of heart muscle that may result from a diverse array of
conditions that damage the heart and other organs and impair myocardial function, including …

Aims Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a major cause of heart failure with a high familial
recurrence risk. So far, the genetics of DCM remains largely unresolved. We conducted the …

OBJECTIVES This study was performed to evaluate the characteristics, mode of inheritance
and etiology of familial dilated cardiomyopathy (FDC). BACKGROUND A genetic form of …

Dilated cardiomyopathy is a heart muscle disease characterized by 'dilatation and impaired
contraction of the left ventricle or both ventricles. It may be idiopathic, familial/genetic, viral …

Aims Despite our increased understanding of the genetic basis of dilated cardiomyopathy
(DCM), the clinical utility and yield of clinically meaningful findings of comprehensive next …

Background: Genotype-phenotype correlations in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and, in
particular, the effects of gene variants on clinical outcomes remain poorly understood …

Background—Rare variants in> 30 genes have been shown to cause idiopathic or familial
