Table 1 Characteristics of the patients in the study. The characteristics of the patients and the different analysis performed on samples from the patients in this study. The mean age in years and the mean time from transplantation to rejection in days are shown. DNA microarray and real time RT-PCR analysis was performed on RNA from endomyocardial biopsies and ELISA analysis was performed on serum samples. * DCM = dilated cardiomyopathy, ICM = ischemic cardiomyopathy, HCM = hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
