Evaluation of the Tpeak-Tend Interval as an Arrhythmogenicity Index in Graves' Disease [PDF]
Introduction.Graves’ disease is the most common cause of hyperthyroidism. The mortality rate increases by 20% in hyperthyroid patients; cardiac problems are the leading cause of death and arrhythmia is the most common cardiac complication.

Increase in Tpeak–Tend interval induced by cardiac resynchronization therapy is a predictor of ventricular tachyarrhythmia [PDF]
Background: The impact of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) on dispersion of repolarization is controversial. This study aimed to determine whether CRT alters the QT interval and Tpeak–Tend interval (Tpeak–end) and whether such changes relate to ...

Tpeak-Tend Interval during Pregnancy and Postpartum. [PDF]
Background: Pregnancy is a condition in which new cardiac arrhythmias can occur or prior undiagnosed arrhythmias may provide symptoms. The occurrence of severe ventricular arrhythmias and polymorphic ventricular tachycardia that may lead to fainting or sudden cardiac death is promoted by the prolongation of the QTc interval.

Evaluation of Tpeak–Tend and QT intervals in Chagas’ Disease, Chronic Phase and Normal Electrocardiogram [PDF]
Introduction: Chagas’ disease lacks elements to predict which carriers will evolve into cardiac form and which will remain in undetermined form. Objective: To evaluate the relationship between electrocardiographic evolution and Tpeak–Tend and QT ...

A Longer Tpeak-Tend Interval Is Associated with a Higher Risk of Death: A Meta-Analysis. [PDF]
A noninvasive tool for cardiovascular risk stratification has not yet been established in the clinical routine analysis. Previous studies suggest a prolonged Tpeak-Tend interval (the interval from the peak to the end of the T-wave) to be predictive of death.

The relationship between the TSH values and the Tpeak – Tend interval duration in hypothyroid patients receiving Levothyroxine treatment [PDF]
Introduction. Changes in thyroid hormone level can affect the cardiovascular system. The aim of this study was to show how the Tpeak -Tend (Tpe) interval, which is a new marker of ventricular arrythmia, is affected in patients who have become euthyroid ...

Sex and race differences in J-Tend, J-Tpeak, and Tpeak-Tend intervals [PDF]
To facilitate the precision of clinical electrocardiographic studies of J-to-Tpeak (JTp) and Tpeak-to-Tend (Tpe) intervals, the study investigated their differences between healthy females and males, and between subjects of African and Caucasian origin ...

Prognostic value of Tpeak-Tend interval in patients with acute pulmonary embolism. [PDF]
The aim of this study was to examine the Tpeak-Tend (Tpe/corrected Tpe) interval, which is an indicator of transmural myocardial repolarization, measured non-invasively via electrocardiogram in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE), and to investigate the relationship with 30-day mortality and morbidity.The study included 272 patients diagnosed ...

Tpeak-Tend interval and Tpeak-Tend/QT ratio as markers of ventricular tachycardia inducibility in subjects with Brugada ECG phenotype [PDF]
resonance imaging data suggesting right ventricular outflow tract dilatation in patients with Brugada syndrome as the resolution of imaging modalities has improved. 5 This fibrotic process would promote conduction delay in the right ventricle and may explain the presence of a coved ST-segment elevation pattern independent of specific ion channel ...

Heritability of Tpeak-Tend Interval and T-Wave Amplitude [PDF]
Background— Tpeak-Tend interval (TpTe) and T-wave amplitude (Tamp) carry diagnostic and prognostic information regarding cardiac morbidity and mortality. Heart rate and QT interval are known to be heritable traits. The heritability of T-wave morphology parameters such as TpTe and Tamp is unknown. TpTe and Tamp were evaluated in
