- Abstract
The article discusses the European Paediatric Cardiomyopathy and Myocarditis Registry, which aims to improve understanding and management of childhood-onset cardiomyopathies (CMPs). The registry provides valuable information about the complex nature of CMP and highlights the need for early diagnosis, genetic assessment, and tailored therapeutic approaches. The study also identifies the prevalence of hereditary and genetic disorders in children with CMP and emphasizes the importance of identifying rare disease phenocopies for targeted therapies. However, the study acknowledges limitations in registry studies and the need for further research to overcome obstacles to early diagnosis. Overall, the registry's insights have the potential to improve outcomes and well-being for affected children and their families.
