The potential predictive value of cardiac mechanics for left ventricular reverse remodelling in dilated cardiomyopathy
ConclusionsPatients with LVRR had a lower LV volume index, lower LVSV index, lower LGE extent, higher LVRI, and preserved myocardial deformation in the longitudinal direction at baseline. LVRI and rGLPS at baseline were independent determinants of LVRR.

Factors influencing left ventricular thrombus resolution and its significance on clinical outcomes
ConclusionsThis study suggests that LVT resolution is an important predictor for favourable clinical outcomes. LVEF improvement failure interfered with LVT resolution and appeared to be a crucial factor for LVT recurrence. After LVT resolution, continuation of anticoagulation did not seem to impact LVT recurrence and the prognosis.

Atrial cardiomyopathy: from cell to bedside
AbstractAtrial cardiomyopathy refers to structural and electrical remodelling of the atria, which can lead to impaired mechanical function. While historical studies have implicated atrial fibrillation as the leading cause of cardioembolic stroke, atrial cardiomyopathy may be an important, underestimated contributor. To date, the relationship between atrial cardiomyopathy, atrial fibrillation, and cardioembolic stroke remains obscure. This review summarizes the pathogenesis of atrial cardiomyopathy, with a special focus on neurohormonal and inflammatory mechanisms, as well as the role of adipose tissue, especially epicardia...

Blood ‐based biomarkers for the prediction of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy prognosis: a systematic review and meta‐analysis
ConclusionsSeveral blood-based biomarkers were identified as predictors of HCM outcomes. Additional studies are required to validate their prognostic utility within current risk stratification models.

Impact of SARS ‐Cov‐2 infection in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: results of an international multicentre registry
ConclusionsOver one-fourth of HCM patients infected with SARS-Cov-2 required hospitalization, including 6% in an ICU setting. Age and cardiac features related to HCM, including baseline functional class, left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, and systolic impairment, conveyed increased risk of mortality.

Very long ‐term prognosis in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: a longitudinal study with a period of 20 years
ConclusionsIn our cohort of patients, HCM-related mortality was relatively favourable. However, approximately half of the patients suffered from HCM-related adverse events during the follow-up period of 20  years. It is important for HCM patients to be carefully followed up over the long-term because HCM is a lifelong disease.

Heart transplantation strategies in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy: a tertiary ARVC centre experience
ConclusionsHeart transplantation is a curative treatment for ARVC, but due to frequent ventricular arrhythmias and RV predominant pathology, patients require unique considerations in regard to timing of evaluation, haemodynamic support options, and wait listing qualification.

Mortality risk in chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy: a systematic review and meta ‐analysis
ConclusionsThe annual mortality risk in chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy is substantial and primarily attributable to cardiovascular causes. This risk significantly increases in patients with low left ventricular ejection fraction and those classified as AHA stages C and C/D.

Implantation of ventricular assist devices in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with left ventricular systolic dysfunction
ConclusionsDespite a decreased right ventricular function with higher BNP values, patients with HCM-LVSD and DCM showed comparable outcomes post-LVAD implantation.

Anticoagulation in cardiomyopathy: unravelling the hidden threat and challenging the threat individually
AbstractCardiomyopathy comprises a heterogeneous group of myocardial abnormalities, structural or functional in nature, in the absence of coronary artery disease and other abnormal loading conditions. These myocardial pathologies can result in premature death or disability from progressive heart failure, arrhythmia, stroke, or other embolic events. The European Cardiomyopathy Registry reports a high stroke risk in cardiomyopathy patients ranging from 2.1% to 4.5%, as well as high prevalence of atrial fibrillation ranging from 14.0% to 48.5%. There is a growing interest in evaluating the risk of thromboembolism depending on...

Sympathetic activation in heart failure with reduced and mildly reduced ejection fraction: the role of aetiology
ConclusionsMuscle sympathetic nerve activity parameters indicated significant sympathetic activation in both HFmrEF and HFrEF patients as compared with healthy controls with no difference in relation to ischaemic versus non-ischaemic aetiology.

Clinical significance of new ‐onset atrial fibrillation in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
ConclusionsIn our HCM registry in an aged Japanese community, a significant proportion developed AF. The presence of AF, particularly new-onset AF, was associated with increased incidence of HCM-related events. AF may not be just a marker of disease stage but an important trigger of adverse events.

A mid ‐ventricular variant of Takotsubo syndrome: was it triggered by insular cortex damage?
We report the case of a 79 ‐year‐old female diagnosed with a mid‐ventricular variant of TTS concomitant with right IC ischaemic stroke. After 12 h of hospitalization, she experienced a sudden collapse. Rapid cardiopulmonary resuscitation resulted in a return of spontaneous circulation. Subsequent left ventriculography revealed akinesis in the mid‐portion of the left ventricle with vigorous contraction of the basal and apex segment. Two weeks after admission, cardiac ultrasound showed improved left ventricular contraction. Right IC ischaemia in this patient might have been associated with a dysregulation of the CAN...
