We evaluated the cardiac function recovery following skeletal myoblast cell-sheet transplantation and the long-term outcomes after applying this treatment in 23 patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy. We defined patients as "responders" when their left ventricular ejection fraction remained unchanged or improved at 6 months after treatment. At 6 months, 16 (69.6%) patients were defined as responders, and the average increase in left ventricular ejection fraction was 4.9%. The responders achieved greater improvement degrees in left ventricular and hemodynamic function parameters, and they presented improved exercise capacity. During the follow-up period (56 ± 28 months), there were four deaths and the overall 5-year survival rate was 95%. Although the responders showed higher freedom from mortality and/or heart failure admission (5-year, 81% versus 0%; p = 0.0002), both groups presented an excellent 5-year survival rate (5-year, 93% versus 100%; p = 0.297) that was higher than that predicted using the Seattle Heart Failure Model. The stepwise logistic regression analysis showed that the preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate and the left ventricular end-systolic volume index were independently associated with the recovery progress. Approximately 70% of patients with "no-option" ischemic cardiomyopathy responded well to the cell-sheet transplantation. Preoperative renal and left ventricular function might predict the patients' response to this treatment.

D008875	Middle Aged	An adult aged 45 - 64 years.	Middle Age
D009202	Cardiomyopathies	A group of diseases in which the dominant feature is the involvement of the CARDIAC MUSCLE itself. Cardiomyopathies are classified according to their predominant pathophysiological features (DILATED CARDIOMYOPATHY; HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY; RESTRICTIVE CARDIOMYOPATHY) or their etiological/pathological factors (CARDIOMYOPATHY, ALCOHOLIC; ENDOCARDIAL FIBROELASTOSIS).

D006321	Heart	The hollow, muscular organ that maintains the circulation of the blood.	Hearts
D006333	Heart Failure	A heterogeneous condition in which the heart is unable to pump out sufficient blood to meet the metabolic need of the body. Heart failure can be caused by structural defects, functional abnormalities (VENTRICULAR DYSFUNCTION), or a sudden overload beyond its capacity. Chronic heart failure is more common than acute heart failure which results from sudden insult to cardiac function, such as MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION.
