Electrical Storms in Brugada Syndrome: Review of Pharmacologic and Ablative Therapeutic Options [PDF]
Electrical storm occurring in a patient with the Brugada syndrome is an exceptional but malignant and potentially lethal event. Efficient therapeutic solutions should be known and urgently applied because of the inability of usual antiarrhythmic means in

Epilepsy–heart syndrome: Concept, clinical context, and opportunity for integrated care
Abstract In this concept paper, we introduce epilepsy‐heart syndrome as a shared burden of illness between epilepsy and cardiac disorders. This pragmatic definition is agnostic of which condition came first (the epilepsy or the cardiac disorder), recognising that these conditions can each serve as a risk factor for the other owing to a bidirectional ...

We present a 56-year-old man who sustained an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, was resuscitated, and was found to have typical features of the Brugada criteria on the ...

Parkinson's disease‐linked Kir4.2 mutation R28C leads to loss of ion channel function
Abstract figure legend Pathogenic impact of the PD‐linked Kir4.2R28C mutation on Kir4.2 channel proteostasis and function. The Kir4.2R28C mutation, identified in a familial Parkinson's disease (PD) pedigree, leads to a near‐complete loss of potassium channel function and exerts a significant dominant‐negative effect.

A case of Brugada syndrome [PDF]
A 48-year-old man presented himself to our clinic due to an episode of a sense of dizziness and presyncope while he was standing from which he recovered after 5 min of adopting the supine position. The patient did not have related palpitations, chest pain or shortness of breath and was feeling fully recovered at the time of the interview. The patient’s
