Mechanisms, Risk Factors, and Management of Acquired Long QT Syndrome: A Comprehensive Review [PDF]
Long QT syndrome is characterized by prolongation of the corrected QT (QTc) interval on the surface electrocardiogram and is associated with precipitation of torsade de pointes (TdP), a polymorphic ventricular tachycardia that may cause sudden death ...

Congenital Short QT Syndrome [PDF]
Long QT intervals in the ECG have long been associated with sudden cardiac death. The congenital long QT syndrome was first described in individuals with structurally normal hearts in 1957.1 Little was known about the significance of a short QT ...

Suppression-Replacement KCNQ1 Gene Therapy for Type 1 Long QT Syndrome.
Background: Type 1 long QT syndrome (LQT1) is caused by loss-of-function variants in the KCNQ1-encoded Kv7.1 potassium channel α-subunit which is essential for cardiac repolarization, providing the slow delayed rectifier current (IKs).
