Re-analysis of Next-generation Sequencing Data in Patients with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: Contribution of Spliceogenic

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic cardiac muscle disease characterized by clinical and genetic heterogeneity. Genetic testing can reveal the presence of disease-causing variants in genes encoding sarcomere proteins. However, it yields inconclusive or negative results in 40-60% of HCM cases, owing to, among other causes, technical limitations such as the inability to detect pathogenic intronic variants. Therefore, we aimed to increase the diagnostic yield of molecular analysis for HCM by improving the
