Selective in vitro enhancement of cardiac myosin motor function and myofilament force generation by danicamtiv prompted clinical evaluation. A short course of danicamtiv was generally well tolerated in participants with #DCM. jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jacc.… #HFSA2025 #JACC #cvGenetics

Here are all AHFTC fellowship programs that offered spots in last 5 years, and # of fellows they matched. 13 programs trained 50% of fellows. #HFSA2025 Skewed uneven distribution. Mega centers train most of the field. Insufficient exposure to community and rural needs. Worrisome.

On clinical screening, 1 in 7 FDRs of patients c/DCM have newly diagnosed DCM or partial DCM phenotype @DCMProject @RayHershberger @gordonshuggins @eksjordan @greg_ewald @amorrismd @tikuowens @WilsonTangMD @bhtrachtenberg @PalakShahMD @DrNancySweitzer @MWheelerMD @WilcoxHeart
What is the value of clinical screening among reportedly unaffected first-degree relatives of patients (probands) with dilated cardiomyopathy? Get the answer & read more in #JACC: bit.ly/3q1ddhU #cvGenetics

Close to 50% of DCM cases have an unknown cause, but there is growing evidence that most of these cases are genetic. Learn more about the genetics of DCM: dcmfoundation.org/dilated-ca…

Assumptions regarding dilated cardiomyopathy genetic architecture derived from European ancestry may not apply to African ancestry; a current lack of case data limits clinical genetics care for patients of African ancestry with dilated cardiomyopathy. ja.ma/3DEyRw0

Bad news - one of our matched fellows had to waive the NRMP commitment. Good news - we have an open position 7/2023 for interested applicants for ACGME accredited AHF fellowship. Join our AHF team - 48 transplants, 51 LVADs in 2022. Infiltrative, PH, cardio genetics, and more!
