## Abstract Genotype‐specific effects of parvovirus B19 (B19V) infections on left ventricular function in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) have not been investigated so far. In this prospective clinical study, the prevalences of B19V genotypes in endomyocardial biopsies from patients pres
Left ventricular diastolic function before and after the administration of disopyramide (100 mg) or diltiazem (30 mg) was assessed in 10 patients with nonobstructive type hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Left ventricular diastolic function was assessed by Doppler echocardiography. The peak early (E) and
