ABSTRACT: Aims
Clonal haematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP)-associated mutation is a risk factor for the development of ischaemic cardiomyopathy (ICM), but its association with non-ischaemic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) remains unclear. We aimed to determine the prevalence of CHIP in patients with DCM and define its risk for disease progression.Methods and results
Next-generation sequencing targeting 54 common CHIP-associated genes was performed in 48 ICM and 52 DCM patients. The patients were monitored for a median of 3.1 years, and a COX proportional hazards model was used to examine the association between CHIP and adverse clinical outcome with regard to all-cause death or all-cause hospitalization. Overall, the prevalence of CHIP mutations was 19% and 13% in DCM and IC
