#### Case scenario A 19 year old female student consulted her general practitioner about two recent episodes of syncope, both of which occurred while playing hockey. Her team mates reported that she collapsed suddenly with little warning, recovering rapidly within 30 seconds without confusion.

Fever-Induced QTc Prolongation and Ventricular Fibrillation in a Healthy Young Man [PDF]
Long QT syndrome is associated with lethal tachyarrhythmia that can lead to syncope, seizure, and sudden death. Congenital long QT syndrome is a genetic disorder, characterized by delayed cardiac repolarization and prolongation of the QT interval on the ...

Same family, same mutation, different ECG
This case shows ECG differences may also occur between family members who have the same gene mutation due to long QT syndrome. Abstract Background Different types of long QT syndromes (LQTS) have distinct ECG manifestations according to the type and magnitude of ion channel dysfunction.

Drug-induced Fatal Arrhythmias: Acquired long QT and Brugada Syndromes [PDF]
Since the early 1990s, the concept of primary “inherited” arrhythmia syndromes or ion channelopathies has evolved rapidly as a result of revolutionary progresses made in molecular genetics.

Patients with T790M‐negative EGFR‐mutant advanced NSCLC received anlotinib plus platinum‐based chemotherapy after resistance to first‐ or second‐generation EGFR TKIs. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of anlotinib was 12 mg, and the median PFS was 5.75 (95% CI: 4.37–7.52) months.

Resting electrocardiogram is a basic diagnostic tool used to identify myocardial diseases caused by a genetic defect of ion channels that results in bioelectric instability of cardiomyocytes and the risk of a complex induction of life-threatening ...

Superdiffusion of quantized vortices uncovering scaling behavior of quantum turbulence [PDF]
Generic scaling laws, such as the Kolmogorov's 5/3-law, are milestone achievements of turbulence research in classical fluids. For quantum fluids such as atomic Bose-Einstein condensates, superfluid helium, and superfluid neutron stars, turbulence can also exist in the presence of a chaotic tangle of evolving quantized vortex lines. However, due to the

Outcome by Sex in Patients With Long QT Syndrome With an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator
Background Sex differences in outcome have been reported in patients with congenital long QT syndrome. We aimed to report on the incidence of time‐dependent life‐threatening events in male and female patients with long QT syndrome with an implantable ...

Long QT interval in Turner syndrome--a high prevalence of LQTS gene mutations. [PDF]
QT-interval prolongation of unknown aetiology is common in Turner syndrome. This study set out to explore the presence of known long QT mutations in Turner syndrome and to examine the corrected QT-interval (QTc) over time and relate the findings to the ...

Long QT Syndrome and Torsade de Pointes Associated with Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Prolongation of QTc interval associated with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TC) has previously been reported in published case series. We report an unusual case of a patient who presented with TC associated with long-QT syndrome and developed cardiac arrest ...
