Ahmed Bennis: Immune Dysregulation as a Key Driver of Peripartum Cardiomyopathy
Ahmed Bennis, Professor of Cardiology at the Faculty of Medicine of Casablanca Morocco, shared a post on X about a paper by Julian Hoevelmann et al. published in European Journal of Heart Failure:
“Immune dysregulation as a key driver of peripartum cardiomyopathy – an exploratory advanced imaging and biomarker study.
Patients with PPCM exhibited a dysregulated immune response, associated with early myocardial interstitial fibrosis and adverse cardiac remodelling. This highlights the importance of rapid initiation of guideline-directed medical therapy especially with drugs documented to have anti-fibrotic effects.”
