TL;DR: This study failed to identify an effect of subclinical HCM on owner-assessed QOL or activity or a treatment effect of atenolol on these variables at the dosage evaluated, and these findings do not support a treatment benefit of atanolol for the goal of symptom reduction in cats with sub clinical HCM.
