Pathophysiology of Peripartum Cardiomyopathy: Interactions between angiogenic, hormonal and inflammatory factors
Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPMC) is a rare condition that causes left ventricular dysfunction and heart failure in healthy women during the peripartum period. This study explores the pathophysiology of CMPP, highlighting inflammatory, autoimmune, and hormonal factors that contribute to the condition, as well as identifying genetic variants associated with increased risk. The literature review revealed the complexity of CMPP and aims tocontribute to the prevention, diagnosis and effective treatment of the disease.
