Abstract:Background:
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a progressive myocardial disorder characterized by impaired cardiac contraction and ventricular dilation. However, some patients with DCM improve when experiencing left ventricular reverse remodeling (LVRR). Currently, the detailed association between genotypes and clinical outcomes, including LVRR, particularly among children, remains uncertain.
Methods:
Pediatric patients with DCM from multiple Japanese institutions recorded between 2014 and 2023 were enrolled. We … Show more
