Limitations

The clinical personal records database does not include information regarding complications, genetic testing, non-pharmacological therapy, and outcomes such as hospitalization and death.
The number of HCM and RCM patients was relatively small compared with the number of DCM patients.
Data regarding arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy were not obtained.
The prescription rate of HF medications could be associated with the severity of HF, making it difficult to standardize all factors in descriptive analyses.
The descriptive nature of the study cannot identify reasons for regional differences.
Lack of temporal trend analysis.
