Landmark #whyCMR paper on HCM
From @JAMA_current
Among patients with #hypertrophic#cardiomyopathy followed for nearly 7 years, key predictors of adverse outcomes included
1. late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) percentage on #whyCMR,
2. left ventricular (LV) mass index,
3. LV end-systolic volume index,
4. history of heart failure, and
5. log(N-terminal pro–B-type natriuretic peptide [NT-proBNP]).
LGE ≥9% of LV mass was associated with substantially increased risk for the composite of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy–related deaths, ventricular arrhythmias, and transplant or LV assist device implant.
These findings provide prospective evidence for integrating #whyCMR and blood biomarkers in risk assessment for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. #HCMja.ma/3Rd42s3
Congratulations Dr. @ChrisKramerMD and others from HCM registry on this terrific paper.
Honored to be inducted in the @the_asci - a dream coming true. Thanks to Dr. Libby for the nomination and the support of Drs. Dinarello, Frangogiannis, Kramer and Mann - they have inspired me to become a physician scientist in inflammation and heart disease. Thanks to my wonderful wife @VeraAbbate1. @UVACVRC
