Antiviral and anti-inflammatory drugs to combat COVID-19: Effects on cardiac ion channels and risk of ventricular arrhythmias [PDF]

BioImpacts, 2022
Introduction: Drugs with no indication for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases (e.g., drugs employed to treat COVID-19) can increase the risk of arrhythmias.

QT Interval Dynamics and Cardiovascular Outcomes: A Cohort Study in an Integrated Health Care Delivery System

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background Long QT has been associated with ventricular dysrhythmias, cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality, and sudden cardiac death. However, no studies to date have investigated the dynamics of within‐person QT change over time in relation to risk of

Assessment of Severity of Long QT Syndrome Phenotype and Risk of Fetal Death

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Background It has been postulated that long QT syndrome (LQTS) can cause fetal loss through putative adverse effects of the channelopathy on placenta and myometrial function.

QT interval dynamics in patients with ST-elevation MI

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
BackgroundAn association between excessively prolonged QT and ventricular arrhythmia in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction has been described; however, the QT dynamics, characterization, and long-term predictive value are not well known ...

Long QT in stunned myocardium: unrecognised cause of acquired long QT syndrome

Journal of Medical Science, 2014
Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a heart disorder characterized by a prolongation of the QT interval on ECG and a predisposition to ventricular tachyarrhythmias, which may lead to syncope, cardiac arrest or sudden cardiac death. This condition may be inherited

In Vitro Drug Screening Using iPSC-Derived Cardiomyocytes of a Long QT-Syndrome Patient Carrying KCNQ1 & TRPM4 Dual Mutation: An Experimental Personalized Treatment

Cells, 2022
Congenital long QT syndrome is a type of inherited cardiovascular disorder characterized by prolonged QT interval. Patient often suffer from syncopal episodes, electrocardiographic abnormalities and life-threatening arrhythmia.

QT Adaptation and Intrinsic QT Variability in Congenital Long QT Syndrome

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2015
Background Increased variability of QT interval (QTV) has been linked to arrhythmias in animal experiments and multiple clinical situations. Congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS), a pure repolarization disease, may provide important information on the ...

Congenital long QT syndrome

Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2008
Congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a hereditary cardiac disease characterized by a prolongation of the QT interval at basal ECG and by a high risk of life-threatening arrhythmias. Disease prevalence is estimated at close to 1 in 2,500 live births. The

Resuscitation of sudden cardiac death caused by acute epileptic seizures: A case report

Journal of Acute Disease, 2016
Symptomatic long QT syndrome in pediatric patients is a life-threatening condition. Sometimes, this pathology can be misdiagnosed and erroneously managed as generalized epilepsy due to similar clinical manifestations.
