New Hope For Those Who Suffer From Cardiac Hypertrophy Heart Disease

One of the leading health problems in the United States is hypertrophic heart disease. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. Many people who suffer from heart disease are unable to continue working. When this happens, Social Security disability benefits may be available to help address financial concerns.

Researchers may have found regulators of cardiac hypertrophy, which could potentially offer a new form of treatment for hypertrophic heart disease. Hypertrophy occurs when the heart becomes enlarged. An enlarged heart can lead to heart failure and even death.

Researchers have found that the protein calymrin (CIB1) has been linked to the biochemical processes that regulate cardiac hypertrophy. By possibly inhibiting CIB1 or its interactions, researchers may have a new way to target cardiac hypertrophy.

Hypertension and heart attacks cause damage to the heart and heart muscles, which forces the body to overcompensate, increasing the heart's size. If hypertrophy can be prevented, the risk of heart failure is greatly decreased.

Although this discovery provides hope, researchers' caution that additional research needs to be done before clinical trials on patients can go forward.

If you suffer from cardiac hypertrophy or any other cardiovascular condition, you may be eligible for Social Security disability benefits. The Social Security Administration provides disability benefits to those who are suffering from a serious mental or physical disability. Contact a disability attorney who can help determine if you are eligible for disability benefits.
