His Crohn9s disease has been in complete remission, presumably due to his immunosuppressive medications.ConclusionsWhile autoimmune cardiomyopathy has been associated with other autoimmune disorders, this is the first known case of cardiomyopathy in association with a polyglandular autoimmune syndrome....

Nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy DbCM: Diabetic cardiomyopathy DM: Diabetes mellitus GLS: Global longitudinal strain HF: Heart failure HR: Hazard ratio IQR: Interquartile range LA: Left atrium LAVI: Left atrium volume index LGE: Late gadolinium enhancement LV: Left ventricle LVEF: ...
DE-CMR = delayed-enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance; EDV = end-diastolic volume; EF = ejection fraction; ESV = end-systolic volume; LV = left ventricular; NICM = nonischemic cardiomyopathy; NYHA = New York Heart Association; proBNP = pro–B-type natriuretic peptide; RV = right ventricular...
SERCA2 Oxidative posttranslational modification Myocardial fibrosis Non-ischemic cardiomyopathy 1. Introduction Calcium (Ca2+) homeostasis is crucial for cell contraction and relaxation [1]; thus, cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]c) levels are tightly regulated during the normal contraction-relaxation cycle in the...
In patients with advanced non-ischemic cardiomyopathy (NIC), right-sided cardiac disturbances has prognostic implications. Right coronary artery (RCA) flow pattern and flow reserve (CFR) are not well known in this setting. The purpose of this study was to assess, in human advanced NIC, the RCA...
Importantly, ncRNAs are able to target genes that are still “undruggable” and unlike regular medications used today, they have not been found to be affected by drug resistance [154]. The use of ncRNA as a therapeutic agent is a promising approach with the possibility of treating a wide ...
Cardiovascular drug users were defined as patients who used any of the drugs above within 1–30 days before the index hospitalization, given that it was unlikely that these medications were discontinued within 1 month before the said hospitalization. The type of organ dysfunction was identified ...
(defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate < 15 mL/min/1.73 m2 or chronic dialysis); (c) chronic use of potentially hepatotoxic medications, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, steroids, tamoxifen, amiodarone, methotrexate or use of hormone replacement therapy (for women only);...
Prior CVD history was evidence of the following anytime preceding the year before exacerbation date [acute coronary syndrome (ACS), arrhythmias, HF, ischemic stroke, pulmonary hypertension PH], COPD inhaled therapies, and major classes of cardiovascular medications (prescriptions defined two years ...
