Cardioskeletal Myopathies in Children and Young Adults
Academic Press Inc (Verlag)
978-0-12-800040-3 (ISBN)
Given the increasing recognition of genetic triggers behind all types of cardiovascular disease, and the growing population of young adults with primary or acquired myocardial disease, the need has arisen for a reference that offers a comprehensive approach to the understanding of basic, translational, and clinical aspects of specific muscle diseases while making the link between young adult and adult health.
Dr. Jefferies is a recognized international expert in the field of heart muscle disease contributing much of the current literature regarding related genetic mechanisms, clinical investigation, and guideline development. Dr. Blaxall is a renowned translational basic scientist who has significantly contributed the current understanding of myocardial signalling pathways and myocyte hypertrophy. Dr. Chin is a senior investigator in the field of pediatric cardiac transplantation who is actively involved with development of novel methods for diagnosing and treating humeral and cellular rejection. Dr. Towbin is a recognized international expert in the field of heart muscle disease contributing much of the current literature regarding related genetic mechanisms, clinical investigation, and guideline development. Dr. Robbins is a revered expert in the basic science of cardiomyopathic disease, pioneering animal modelling of genetically based heart muscle disease.
