Genetic and Inflammatory Predictors of Nondilated LV Cardiomyopathy Progression
Understanding Nondilated Left Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (NDLVC) Nondilated left ventricular cardiomyopathy (NDLVC) is a form of heart muscle disease characterized by a normal-sized left ventricle despite functional impairment. Unlike dilated cardiomyopathy, NDLVC can be more insidious, with patients remaining asymptomatic for longer periods or presenting with heart failure symptoms that are not easily attributed to classic…

Genetic and Inflammatory Predictors of NDLVC Progression
Understanding nondilated left ventricular cardiomyopathy (NDLVC) NDLVC is a heart condition characterized by structural changes in the left ventricle without dilation. It can lead to symptoms ranging from none to heart failure, arrhythmias, or reduced exercise capacity. A recent large multicenter analysis published in the Canadian Journal of Cardiology highlights an important finding: nearly 40%…

Genetic and Inflammatory Predictors in NDLVC Progression
Introduction Nondilated left ventricular cardiomyopathy (NDLVC) challenges clinicians with a condition that can silently advance despite a normal-sized heart. A large multicenter analysis reported in the Canadian Journal of Cardiology found that nearly 40% of patients experienced clinically meaningful disease progression over long-term follow-up. This finding underscores the importance of identifying predictive biomarkers that can…
