BACKGROUND: Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a systemic disease which affects the
heart and may be a cause of sudden death. Conduction disturbances are the major cardiac …

Background Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is an autosomal-dominant disease. One third
of DM1 patients die suddenly, most of them due to the heart conduction abnormalities and …

Background Cardiac involvement in myotonic dystrophy type 1 (MD1) includes conduction
disease, arrhythmias, and left-ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction leading to an increased …

Abstract Myotonic dystrophy type 2 (DM2) is a slowly progressive, autosomal-dominant
disease. This is a multisystemic disorder that affects the heart, which is one of the main …

BACKGROUND: Conduction disturbances and arrhythmias characterize the cardiac feature
of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (MD1), and a myocardial involvement has been suggested as …

This autosomal-dominant hereditary disease, caused by the excessive repetition of a CTG
codon in the dystrophia myotonica-protein kinase (DMPK) gene,[2] is frequently complicated …

Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), the most common muscular dystrophy affecting adults and
children, is a multi-systemic disorder affecting skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscles as well …

OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to identify, in addition to conduction defects, possible
predictors of cardiac events and death in patients with myotonic dystrophy (DM1) …
