Abstract excerpt
Chagas disease, caused by Trypanosoma cruzi , is an endemic parasitical disease of Latin America, affecting 7 million people. Although most patients are asymptomatic, 30% develop complications, including Chronic Chagasic Cardiomyopathy (CCC), which ranges from moderate to severe stages depending on the cardiac ejection fraction.
