Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction, Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Cardiomyopathies and Heart Muscle Diseases: Cardiac Imaging in the Evaluation of Myocardial Fibrosis Transition
Heart scarring, also known as fibrosis, plays a major role in a lot of heart muscle abnormalities. These abnormalities of the heart muscle can lead to major issues such as symptoms of heart failure, dangerous heart rhythm…

Left Ventricular Hypertrophy, Hypertension
Response of the Myocardium to Hypertrophic Conditions in the Adult Population
Hypertension and aortic stenosis are the two leading conditions that cause thickening of the heart muscles (left ventricular hypertrophy). Left ventricular hypertrophy is initially adaptive to maintain optimal heart function.

- Trial name
- NCT02670031
- Testing
- Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, Echocardiogram, Electrocardiogram
- Where
- Singapore
- Volunteers
- 2,000 people, healthy volunteers welcome

Sudden Cardiac Death, Sudden Cardiac Arrest
Low QRS Voltages in Young Healthy Individuals and Athletes
There is some limited evidence that reduced size of electrical complexes/traces of the heart on the electrocardiogram (ECG) may be associated with scarring in the heart muscle, which may predispose to serious life-threatening…
