The genetic mutation in TTR V142I has been linked to an earlier onset of #heartfailure and a higher risk of hospitalization. The findings suggest screening for the mutation could lead to improved outcomes. Read more: ow.ly/LyLc50H7bnf #cardiovasculardisease

🫀🧬More evidence supporting that myocarditis (as of recently thought to be purely environmental) has a 2-hit basis. Its likely multifactorial with cardio-neuro genes involved, showing the value a genetic eval in these cases. #gcchat
Our 2nd “genetics of myocarditis” paper of 2021 is out! 🚨 Here in @jaccjournals we report on 🧬sequencing of 117 patients w/ myocarditis, including viral, histologic and clinical data. A 🧵 (1/8) jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jacbt…
