Nov 23rd, 2020 - Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a form of heart failure that occurs toward the end of pregnancy or in the months following pregnancy and is marked by left ventricular systolic dysfunction. The cause of PPCM remains unknown and there is no diag...

Nov 4th, 2020 - Exposure to air pollutants such as ozone (O3) is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes, including higher incidence of gestational hypertension, preeclampsia and peripartum cardiomyopathy; however, the underlying mechanisms of this association...

Oct 22nd, 2020 - We studied the efficacy and safety of selenium supplementation in patients who had peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) and selenium deficiency. We randomly assigned 100 PPCM patients with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 45% and selenium d...

Oct 21st, 2020 - Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is an idiopathic cardiomyopathy presenting with acute heart failure during the peripartum period. It is common in patients of African ancestry. Currently, there is paucity of data on the burden, predictors and outc...

Oct 17th, 2020 - Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is idiopathic pregnancy-associated heart failure (HF) with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). We aimed to assess arterial stiffness and left ventricular (LV) function in women recovered from PPCM co...

Aug 2nd, 2010 - Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a cause of pregnancy-associated heart failure. It typically develops during the last month of, and up to 6 months after, pregnancy in women without known cardiovascular disease. The present position statement of...

Oct 5th, 2020 - Specific underlying factors cause various forms of heart failure, such as systolic heart failure (most commonly, left ventricular [LV] systolic dysfunction), heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), acute heart failu...

Jan 9th, 2020 - For the week ending Jan 10 2020, John Mandrola, MD comments on the following cardiology news [and features] stories: CRF Commissions Review of Controversial EXCEL Trial The Unholy Pairing of Cancer and Peripartum Cardiomyopathy First-time Marathon...

Jan 6th, 2020 - New research bolsters a connection between the risk for cancer before and after peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) and identifies genetic variants underlying PPCM and a variety of cancers. "This study is the first to describe a markedly increased ri...
