TL;DR: Incorporation of sequencing approaches that detect TTN truncations into genetic testing for dilated cardiomyopathy should substantially increase test sensitivity, thereby allowing earlier diagnosis and therapeutic intervention for many patients with dilated heart disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence and prognostic significance of left ventricular reverse remodeling in dilated cardiomyopathy receiving tailored medical treatment.
Marco Merlo,Stylianos A. Pyxaras,Bruno Pinamonti,Giulia Barbati,Andrea Di Lenarda,Gianfranco Sinagra +5 more
TL;DR: LVRR characterized approximately one-third of IDCM patients surviving 2 years while receiving optimal medical therapy and allowed a more accurate long-term prognostic stratification of the disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate the association between truncating mutations in the Filamin C (FLNC) gene and the development of high-risk dilated and arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolving Concepts in Dilated Cardiomyopathy
TL;DR: A comprehensive survey of emerging issues in the clinical management of DCM, including the role of cardiac magnetic resonance for diagnosis and risk categorization and the interaction between genotype and clinical phenotype, and arrhythmic risk stratification.
