Active clinical trials for "Cardiomyopathies"

Dilated cardiomyopathy is a heart muscle disorder characterized by systolic dysfunction and dilation of the left or both ventricles.Dilated cardiomyopathy can develop in people of any age or ethnicity, although it is more common in male than female persons occurring at a ratio of about three to one in male to female persons. Dilated cardiomyopathy is the predominant cause of cardiomyopathy in pediatric populations. Annual incidence in pediatric populations has been reported to be much lower than one to one hundred seventy thousand in the United States and one to one hundred forty thousand in Australia. Although pediatric dilated cardiomyopathy has a lower annual incidence than adult dilated cardiomyopathy, the outcome for pediatric dilated cardiomyopathy patients is particularly severe. Dilated cardiomyopathy is the most frequent cause of heart transplantation in pediatric patients. Data from international pediatric dilated cardiomyopathy registries indicate that the rates of death or heart transplantation over one and five year periods were thirty one percent and forty six percent, respectively. Onset of dilated cardiomyopathy is usually insidious but may be acute in as many at twenty five percent of patients. Approximately fifty percent of patients with dilated cardiomyopathy have a history of preceding viral illness.

The aim of this study is the identification of familial congenital arrhythmogenic disorders and their clinical follow-up.

Compare data (structural and functional) obtained by transthoracic rest echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging (with gadolinium) in 30 patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

RIKADA is a prospective study performing systematic family screening including clinical and genetic testing in pediatric patients with primary cardiomyopathy and their first-degree relatives with the aim to facilitate risk stratification.

Diabetic cardiomyopathy( DCM) is a major complication of diabetes and is a common cardiovascular complication independent of coronary artery disease and hypertension．Trial to assess of myocardial injury in recipients of simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplantation by nuclear magnetic T２ mapping technology.

Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a global disease with significant morbidity and mortality of young women. Its' etiology, epidemiology and treatment is not yet well described. This will be a retrospective, national, multicenter observational study, conducted in Turkey. It is expected that approximately 50 women with PPCM will be recorded.

This study will investigate the prevalence of echocardiographic red-flags of amyloid cardiomyopathy (AC) in patients undergoing clinically-indicated echocardiography (observational phase) and the prevalence of AC among AC-suggestive echocardiograms (interventional phase).

This is a multi-omics research of Chinese cardiomyopathies patients, aiming to determine genetic risk factor and serial biomarkers of cardiomyopathies in diagnosis and prognosis.

The event-related potentials may be different in patients with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy than in patients without Takotsubo.

The investigators will evaluate the determinants of cerebral impairment in patients with non-ischemic heart failure compared to controls, and its relation to cognitive function. They hypothesize that patients with heart failure have impaired brain perfusion and hemodynamic factors are associated with cognitive dysfunction.
