Hereditary prolongation of QT interval. [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 1972
Twocases, afather andson,withprolongation oftheQTinterval without coexistent deafness, aredescribed. Bothhada typical history, withsymptoms starting inchildhood, oftransient syncopal attacks, often triggered bystrong emotional orphysical stimuli, an abnormally prolonged QTinterval, bizarre T waves, andnormallaboratory values.

Arrhythmic risk in elderly patients candidates to transcatheter aortic valve replacement. predicative role of repolarization temporal dispersion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Degenerative aortic valve stenosis (AS) is associated to ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death, as well as mental stress in specific patients. In such a context, substrate, autonomic imbalance as well as repolarization dispersion abnormalities ...

Prolonged Tp-e Interval, Tp-e/QT Ratio and Tp-e/QTc Ratio in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology and Metabolism, 2016
BackgroundType 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with increased risk of malignant ventricular arrhythmias. Cardiac electrical inhomogeneity may be the leading cause of the increased arrhythmic risk in patients with T2DM.

Clinical cardiac electrophysiologic evaluation of the positive inotropic agent, DPI 201-106 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
DPI 201-106 is a new positive inotropic agent. The cardiac electrophysiology of 16 patients was studied before and during DPI 201-106 administration (loading dose of intravenous DPI 201-106, 1·8 mg kg−1 h−1 administered over 10 min, followed by a ...

Shortening of the Short Refractory Periods in Short QT Syndrome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.
