“…With an estimated prevalence in the general population of approximately 1:500, there are potentially over one million patients with HCM in China alone (3). Genetic screening is a necessary tool for a definite diagnosis of HCM, particularly in subjects with atypical or borderline phenotypic expression (4).…”

“…Based on 7 studies, 1,19,24,25,[27][28][29] HCM phenotypic (ECG-or ECHO-based) prevalence ranged from 0 to 170 per 100 000 (Fig 2) with a summary phenotypic prevalence rate of 45 per 100 000 (95% CI: 10-79) but with substantial variation between studies (I 2 = 91%, P , .001). Inclusion of the study with a phenotypic prevalence estimate of zero 29 helped inform the upper bounds of the estimate.…”

“…Inclusion of the study with a phenotypic prevalence estimate of zero 29 helped inform the upper bounds of the estimate. Although 1 study 27 did not specify diagnostic criteria, we included it because its exclusion had no effect on phenotypic prevalence (remained at 45 per 100 000) and this study was based on a well-established screening program in Japan.…”

“…HCM is a relatively common genetic disease affecting at least 1 in 500 persons in the general population (32,000 persons in the Netherlands), [1][2][3][4][5] which is comparable to the prevalence of familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH). 6 HCM is inherited in an autosomal dominant mode, which implies that 50% of first-degree relatives carry the disease-causing mutation.…”
