MicroRNA profiling as a novel diagnostic tool for identification of patients with inflammatory and/or virally induced cardiomyopathies

ConclusionsThis miRNA profile provides for the first time a new non ‐invasive diagnostic perspective to identify patients with intramyocardial inflammation and/or viral persistence only from single serum sample, independently of prescribed therapy and time of symptoms onset. It allows the early finding of those patients relevant for myocardial biopsy for exact dia gnosis and further proscription of causal aetiology‐driven specific treatment.
