M V Gordeeva, and L B Mitrofanova, and V V Grokhotova

The paper gives data on the prevalence of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy/dysplasia as one of the common causes of sudden cardiac death, achievements in its molecular genetics, possible causes and cause-and-effect relations, microscopic and morphometric features of diagnosis.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009206	Myocardium	The muscle tissue of the HEART. It is composed of striated, involuntary muscle cells (MYOCYTES, CARDIAC) connected to form the contractile pump to generate blood flow.

D006339	Heart Rate	The number of times the HEART VENTRICLES contract per unit of time, usually per minute.

D006801	Humans	Members of the species Homo sapiens.	Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man
D016757	Death, Sudden, Cardiac	Unexpected rapid natural death due to cardiovascular collapse within one hour of initial symptoms. It is usually caused by the worsening of existing heart diseases. The sudden onset of symptoms, such as CHEST PAIN and CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIAS, particularly VENTRICULAR TACHYCARDIA, can lead to the loss of consciousness and cardiac arrest followed by biological death.

D019571	Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia	A congenital cardiomyopathy that is characterized by infiltration of adipose and fibrous tissue into the RIGHT VENTRICLE wall and loss of myocardial cells. Primary injuries usually are at the free wall of right ventricular and right atria resulting in ventricular and supraventricular arrhythmias.
