Abstract Background and Purpose Drug–drug interactions (DDIs) are associated with an increased risk of adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Hospitalized children are particularly vulnerable to DDIs and ADRs due to polypharmacy, frequent use of unlicensed or off‐label medications, and dosing regimens often extrapolated from adult data.

A phenomap of TTR amyloidosis to aid diagnostic screening
Abstract Cardiac amyloidosis due to transthyretin (ATTR) remains an underdiagnosed cause of cardiomyopathy. As awareness of the disease grows and referrals for ATTR increase, clinicians are likely to encounter more atypical forms of the condition in clinical practice.

KCNJ4 variants disrupt inward‐rectifier potassium channel function and cause refractory epilepsy
Abstract Objective Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder with a strong genetic basis, most frequently arising from ion channel dysfunction. Although multiple inwardly rectifying potassium (Kir) channels have been implicated in epileptogenesis, the contribution of KCNJ4, which encodes the Kir2.3 channel, has not previously been established in human

Unmasking Long QT Syndrome in the Emergency Department: A Case Report
Introduction: Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is an uncommon disorder that can lead to potentially life-threatening dysrhythmias. LQTS can be genetic, acquired, or both.

A superfamily of small potassium channel subunits: form and function of the MinK-related peptides (MiRPs). [PDF]
MinK and MinK-related peptide I (MiRPI) are integral membrane peptides with a single transmembrane span. These peptides are active only when co-assembled with pore-forming K+ channel subunits and yet their role in normal ion channel behaviour is ...

R-from-T as a common mechanism of arrhythmia initiation in long QT syndromes [PDF]
Background: Long QT syndromes (LQTS) arise from many genetic and nongenetic causes with certain characteristic ECG features preceding polymorphic ventricular tachyarrhythmias (PVTs).

Cardiac remodeling and arrhythmia in a mouse model of Depdc5 haploinsufficiency
Abstract Objective Some ion channel genes linked to developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) are also linked to cardiac arrhythmia, leading to the hypothesis that predisposition to cardiac arrhythmias may contribute to the complex disease presentation of DEE and possibly to the mechanism of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy.

Most ECGs in European hospitals are recorded with equipment giving computer measured intervals and interpretation of the recording. In addition to measurements of interval and QRS axis, this interpretation frequently provides the Bazett’s-corrected QTc ...

Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls
Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...

Oxytocin exerts harmful cardiac repolarization prolonging effects in drug-induced LQTS
Background: Oxytocin is used therapeutically in psychiatric patients. Many of these also receive anti-depressant or anti-psychotic drugs causing acquired long-QT-syndrome (LQTS) by blocking HERG/IKr.
