Cardiac mitofusin-1 is reduced in non-responding patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy
Abstract Prognosis of severe heart failure remains poor. Urgent new therapies are required. Some heart failure patients do not respond to established multidisciplinary treatment and are classified as “non-responders”.
