BACKGROUND: Mutations in myosin heavy chain 7 (MYH7) commonly cause cardiomyopathy. However, the relationship between mutation location, cardiomyopathy type, change in amino acid composition and disease severity is poorly understood. This systematic review aims to provide, on a large scale, important insights into the role mutations in MYH7 play in cardiomyopathy. METHODS: The literature was searched from 1966 to...
