The impact of cachexia on cardiorespiratory reflex control in chronic heart failure.

abstract：AIMS:Although dilated cardiomyopathy is the most frequent form of cardiomyopathy, its aetiology is still poorly understood. In about 20-30% of cases the disease is familial with a large predominance of autosomal dominant transmission. Ten different chromosomal loci have been described for autosomal dominant forms of di...
