Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnosis of left-ventricular non-compaction in patients with left-ventricular systolic dysfunction: time for a reappraisal of diagnostic criteria?
Sanjay K Kohli,Antonios Pantazis,JS Shah,Benjamin Adeyemi,Gordon Jackson,William J. McKenna,Sanjay Sharma,Perry M. Elliott +7 more
TL;DR: An unexpectedly high percentage of patients with heart failure fulfilling current echocardiographic criteria for LVNC is demonstrated, which might be explained by a hitherto underestimated cause of heart failure, but the comparison with controls suggests that current diagnostic criteria are too sensitive, particularly in black individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mutations in the Lamin A/C gene mimic arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy
Giovanni Quarta,Petros Syrris,Michael Ashworth,Sharon Jenkins,Krisztina Zuborne Alapi,John M. Morgan,Alison Muir,Antonios Pantazis,William J. McKenna,Perry M. Elliott,Perry M. Elliott +10 more
TL;DR: Lamin A/C gene should be added to desmosomal genes when genetically testing patients with suspected ARVC, particularly when they also have ECG evidence for conduction disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Familial Evaluation in Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy Impact of Genetics and Revised Task Force Criteria
Giovanni Quarta,Alison Muir,Antonios Pantazis,Petros Syrris,Katja Gehmlich,Pablo García-Pavía,Deirdre Ward,Srijita Sen-Chowdhry,Perry M. Elliott,William J. McKenna +9 more
TL;DR: The role of genotyping in familial assessment for arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy was investigated, including the prevalence of mutations in known causal genes, the penetrance and expressivity in genotyped families, and the utility of the 2010 Task Force criteria in clinical diagnosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical expression of plakophilin-2 mutations in familial arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy
Petros Syrris,Deirdre Ward,Angeliki Asimaki,Srijita Sen-Chowdhry,Hatim Ebrahim,Alison Evans,Nobuhiko Hitomi,Mark Norman,Antonios Pantazis,Anthony Shaw,Perry M. Elliott,William J. McKenna +11 more
TL;DR: New evidence is provided that mutations in the desmosomal plakophilin-2 gene can cause Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy and the need for a more accurate set of diagnostic criteria for ARVC is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of sarcomere protein gene mutations in preadolescent children with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Juan Pablo Kaski,Petros Syrris,Maria Teresa Tome Esteban,Sharon Jenkins,Antonios Pantazis,John E. Deanfield,William J. McKenna,Perry M. Elliott +7 more
TL;DR: Familial disease is common among infants and children with HCM and that, in most cases, disease is caused by mutations in cardiac sarcomere protein genes, the major implication is that all first-degree relatives of any child diagnosed with H CM should be offered screening.
