Long QT syndrome – Bench to bedside
Heart Rhythm O2, 2021 Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a cardiovascular disorder characterized by an abnormality in cardiac repolarization leading to a prolonged QT interval and T-wave irregularities on the surface electrocardiogram. It is commonly associated with syncope, seizures,

Shortening of the Short Refractory Periods in Short QT Syndrome. [PDF]
, 2017 BACKGROUND: Diagnosis of short QT syndrome (SQTS) remains difficult in case of borderline QT values as often found in normal populations. Whether some shortening of refractory periods (RP) may help in differentiating SQTS from normal subjects is unknown.

Transient Long QT Development in a Patient with Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy
Journal of Cardiovascular Emergencies, 2016 QT interval prolongation on the electrocardiogram is considered a precursory sign for imminent, potentially lethal ventricular arrhythmias. Beside the inherited condition of long QT syndrome, numerous drugs, certain electrolyte disturbances and early ...

Genetics update: monogenetics, polygene disorders and the quest for modifying genes [PDF]
, 2018 The genetic channelopathies are a broad collection of diseases. Many ion channel genes demonstrate wide phenotypic pleiotropy, but nonetheless concerted efforts have been made to characterise genotype-phenotype relationships.

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.

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

, 2004 In this numerical study, we investigate the role of intrinsic heterogeneities of cardiac tissue due to M cells in the generation and maintenance of reentrant excitations using the detailed Luo-Rudy dynamic model. This model has been extended to include a

Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, 1998 Major progress has taken place, and at a very rapid pace, in the understanding of the congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS). This has been the direct consequence of the identification of several of the genes responsible for LQTS and of the studies that have followed, at both basic and clinical levels.

Andersen-Tawil syndrome: report of 3 novel mutations and high risk of symptomatic cardiac involvement. [PDF]
, 2014 IntroductionAndersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is a potassium channelopathy affecting cardiac and skeletal muscle. Periodic paralysis is a presenting symptom in some patients, whereas, in others, symptomatic arrhythmias or prolongation of QT in ...
