said, "Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the commonest cause of sudden death in children and teenagers. Although our ability to diagnose the condition has improved considerably in the last few years, many of the tests we use are expensive and may not be routinely available through...
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is one of the most common hereditary heart diseases and is associated with a high risk of sudden cardiac death. HCM is characterized by pronounced hypertrophy of cardiomyocytes, fiber disarray and development of fibrosis and can be divided into a non-obstructive (...

OBJECTIVE: Areas of high signal intensity (HighT2) on T2-weighted cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging have been demonstrated in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). It has been hypothesised that HighT2 may indicate active tissu... DF Gommans,GE Cramer,J Bakker,... - 《Heart》 被引量...

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is one of the most common hereditary heart diseases and can be classified into an obstructive (HOCM) and non-obstructive (HNCM) form. Major characteristics for HCM are the hypertrophy of cardiomyocytes and development of cardiac fibrosis. Patients with HCM have a ...
It should be noted that cardiovascular abnormalities, such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, right ventricular cardiomyopathy (cor pulmonare),or congenital coronary arteries anomalies are typically silent until a potentially fatal arrhythmia occurs, but may in some cases be detected through a careful cardiovas...
Sudden cardiac death commonly occurs in young patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM); however, their heart rate variability (HRV) and blood pressure (BP) response to daily life activities is not well known.HRV and ambulatory BP monitoring were performed in 20 patients (age range: 7-21 ...
We studied twelve patients with hypertensive left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), 10 patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and 10 control subjects to examine the differences in coronary blood flow (CBF) dynamics between patients with hypertensive LVH and those with HCM. All subjects had normal...
Such a constellation would reduce the specificity of the CMR test when defining angiography as the gold standard. However, the perfusion defect might be true, caused by disturbances of the microcirculation, like in syndrome X, systemic hypertension or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), as well as ...
