Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy represents the most common inherited cardiac disease and remains a leading cause of sudden cardiac death and heart failure in young and adult populations. Despite remarkable advances in genetic characterization and imaging-based phenotyping, this pathology is a heterogeneous condition with complex clinical trajectories. This Special Issue, “Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: New Insights Into Complications and Treatment,” focuses on the evolving landscape of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy management, from arrhythmic and heart failure complications to novel therapeutic strategies. Contributions will explore mechanisms and predictors of adverse remodeling, the role of advanced multimodality imaging—including cardiac magnetic resonance and strain analysis—and the impact of emerging pharmacologic agents such as myosin inhibitors. Special attention will be devoted to personalized approaches integrating genetics, imaging biomarkers, and artificial intelligence for improved risk stratification and patient selection. By gathering original articles and reviews, this Special Issue aims to provide an updated and comprehensive overview of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy pathophysiology, complications, and modern treatment paradigms, fostering translational insight and multidisciplinary discussion in this rapidly evolving field.

Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Journal of Clinical Medicine is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
