Professional organizations and clinical experts are improving definitions of DCM, allowing for more accurate treatment recommendations. This review summarized key published literature describing definitions and/or diagnostic criteria for DCM. Embase was searched from database inception to September 19, 2022 for 1) publications reporting definitions of DCM by major professional organizations and related opinion papers, and 2) clinical studies in DCM and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Sixty-eight records were included in this review. Definitions of DCM provided by two major professional organizations (American Heart Association (AHA) and European Society of Cardiology (ESC)) agreed on the clinical presentation of DCM; however, they differed in the classification of DCM within the larger context of cardiomyopathy taxonomies. Both organizations agreed that DCM could be clinically defined by the presence of left ventricular dilation and contractile dysfunction in the absence of abnormal loading conditions and severe coronary artery disease. AHA guidelines divided cardiomyopathies into two major groups (primary and secondary) based on predominant organ involvement. DCM was classified as primary cardiomyopathy with mixed (genetic and/or acquired) etiology. Conversely, ESC published a clinically oriented taxonomy in which cardiomyopathies were grouped into specific morphological and functional phenotypes; each was subclassified into familial or non-familial forms. Opinion papers further elaborated on the complex interplay between genetics and environment in the etiology of DCM. Several articles summarized the importance of the new and updated diagnostic tools, such as cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, electrocardiogram, and other biomarkers, in correctly identifying the etiology of DCM. Within clinical studies, most inclusion criteria used standard definitions proposed by leading professional associations (AHA and ESC). Clinical study investigators sometimes used a narrower definition of DCM using additional criteria for the left ventricular ejection fraction threshold value and left ventricular dilatation. Current efforts in cardiology research are focused on a more granular understanding of DCM etiology and the natural history of the disease. Definitions of DCM found in clinical studies mainly rely on published guidelines, with some studies adding idiosyncratic inclusion criteria refining the broad definitions of DCM.</p>","PeriodicalId":9424,"journal":{"name":"Cardiology Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11483116/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142458596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is a metabolic disorder of coronary arteries characterized by oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, and hyperlipidemia. The imbalance in oxidative-antioxidative status contributes to stable ischemic heart disease. Oxidative stress involves reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, leading to low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation. Endothelial dysfunction, marked by reduced nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability, is an early onset of CCS, affecting vasodilation, cell proliferation, and inflammatory responses. Enzyme myeloperoxidase (MPO), traditionally considered protective, plays a dual role in initiating and progressing inflammatory diseases. MPO interacts with NO, modulating its catalytic activity. Elevated NO levels inhibit MPO through a reversible complex formation, preventing NO-induced inhibition by inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). MPO also inactivates endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and reacts with L-arginine, hindering NO synthesis. The interplay between MPO and NO significantly influences inflammation sites, impacting peroxidation rates and oxidation reactions. Peroxynitrite, a reactive species, contributes to nitration of tyrosine residues and lipid peroxidation. Mechanistic pathways suggest MPO enhances iNOS catalytic activity, influencing CCS development. iNOS, implicated in inflammation and atherosclerosis, is connected to NO regulation. This review analyzes the complex interplay of MPO, iNOS, and NO that affects plaque morphology, oxidative stress, and inflammation, contributing to atherosclerosis progression. Therefore, it is possible that the phenotypes of atherosclerotic plaques, focal and diffuse coronary artery disease, could be defined by the relationship between MPO and iNOS.</p>","PeriodicalId":9424,"journal":{"name":"Cardiology Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11483113/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142458602","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The tachycardia was refractory to treatment with IV amiodarone and magnesium, and only resolved with correction of the serum calcium. Review of the medical record revealed an echocardiogram 19 years earlier reporting left ventricular dysfunction. The patient was unaware of this diagnosis and was not taking medical therapy. Echocardiogram revealed no significant change in left ventricular function, and coronary angiography showed no significant coronary artery disease. The patient's nonischemic cardiomyopathy may have been a predisposing factor for the arrhythmia presentation. We explore a hospital admission involving the rare association of hypocalcemia and monomorphic ventricular tachycardia, which is not well documented in the literature.</p>","PeriodicalId":9424,"journal":{"name":"Cardiology Research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11349131/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142104604","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
