Clinical and molecular characterization of a cardiac ryanodine receptor founder mutation causing catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia [PDF]
Background Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a difficult-to-diagnose cause of sudden cardiac death (SCD). We identified a family of 1400 individuals with multiple cases of CPVT, including 36 SCDs during youth.

High density mapping of inappropriate sinus tachycardia further looks into potential mechanisms
Inappropriate sinus tachycardia (IST) is an incompletely understood condition associating unexpectedly fast sinus rates and debilitating symptoms whose management by sinus node modification/ablation demonstrated limited long-term success. We report about

Chronic Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia in Elderly Females [PDF]
Background: The vast majority of reports of inappropriate sinus tachycardia (IST) had included predominantly young females with ages ranging between 15 and 46 years. In contrast, the present study presents the findings in four elderly females (aged 61–71 years) with long‐standing symptoms of palpitations, more than 15 years, in whom IST was diagnosed ...
