Long QT Syndrome: Genetics and Future Perspective [PDF]

open access: hybridPediatric Cardiology, 2019
Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is an inherited primary arrhythmia syndrome that may present with malignant arrhythmia and, rarely, risk of sudden death. The clinical symptoms include palpitations, syncope, and anoxic seizures secondary to ventricular arrhythmia,

Impact of Drug Induced Long QT Syndrome: A Systematic Review

open access: diamondJournal of Clinical Medicine Research, 2018
Background Drug induced long QT syndrome is quite common in daily clinical practice but its impact is unknown. Methods PubMed and EMBASE databases (until May 2, 2017) were searched to identify studies reporting drug induced long QT syndrome and followed ...

Diagnosis, management and therapeutic strategies for congenital long QT syndrome

open access: yesHeart, 2021
Congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS) is characterised by heart rate corrected QT interval prolongation and life-threatening arrhythmias, leading to syncope and sudden death.

Suppression-Replacement KCNQ1 Gene Therapy for Type 1 Long QT Syndrome.

open access: yesCirculation, 2021
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).

QT correction using Bazett’s formula remains preferable in long QT syndrome type 1 and 2

open access: yesAnnals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, 2020
The heart rate (HR) corrected QT interval (QTc) is crucial for diagnosis and risk stratification in the long QT syndrome (LQTS). Although its use has been questioned in some contexts, Bazett's formula has been applied in most diagnostic and prognostic ...

Reclassification of genetic variants in children with long QT syndrome

open access: yesThe thoracic and cardiovascular surgeon, 2020
Genes encoding cardiac ion channels or regulating proteins have been associated with the inherited form of long QT syndrome (LQTS). Complex pathophysiology and missing functional studies, however, often bedevil variant interpretation and classification ...
