Clinical Genetics of Inherited Arrhythmogenic Disease in the Pediatric Population
Sudden death is a rare event in the pediatric population but with a social shock due to its presentation as the first symptom in previously healthy children. Comprehensive autopsy in pediatric cases identify an inconclusive cause in 40–50% of cases.

PRRX1 Loss‐of‐Function Mutations Underlying Familial Atrial Fibrillation
Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common form of clinical cardiac dysrhythmia responsible for thromboembolic cerebral stroke, congestive heart failure, and death. Aggregating evidence highlights the strong genetic basis of AF. Nevertheless,
