Seasonal variations in ventricular repolarization and tachyarrhythmias in hibernating brown bears (Ursus arctos arctos). [PDF]
In humans, hypothermia prolongs ventricular repolarization and associates with sustained ventricular tachyarrhythmias. In bears, body temperature drops during hibernation similar to moderate human hypothermia, yet they rarely face fatal outcomes during ...

Tpeak-Tend interval (Tpe) is considered to be an ECG reflection of the dispersion of repolarization (DOR), and as such has been proposed as a predictor of arrhythmias. In ischemia, robustness of the Tpe-DOR relationship may suffer from variability of the myocardium at risk (MaR) area.

Evaluation of Tpeak-Tend interval and Tpeak-end/QT ratio in patients with Sarcoidosis.
rdiogram (ECG), can be used as a marker of transmural dispersion of repolarization. Also, Tp-e/QT and Tp-e/QTc ratios are used as an index of arrhythmogenesis. Prolonged Tp-e interval and Tp-e/QT ratio was found associated with sudden cardiac death in different clinical conditions. Novel ventricular repolarization parameters, Tp-e interval, Tp-e/QT and

Tpeak-Tend interval and Tpeak-Tend/QT ratio as markers of ventricular tachycardia inducibility in subjects with Brugada ECG phenotype [PDF]
The present study investigated whether several ECG markers of ventricular repolarization are associated with ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation (VT/VF) inducibility in subjects with type 1 ECG pattern of Brugada syndrome (BS).The clinical data of 23 individuals (19 males, age 42.69 +/- 14.63) with spontaneous (n = 10) or drug-induced (n = 13) type 1 ...

Prolonged Tpeak -Tend interval is a risk factor for sudden cardiac death in adults with congenital heart disease. [PDF]
Objective: Adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) patients are at risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD). However, methods for risk stratification are not yet well-defined. The Tpeak-Tend (TpTe) interval, a measure of dispersion of ventricular repolarization,

Electrocardiographic markers of myocardial conduction and repolarization in Boxer dogs [PDF]
: Electrocardiographic markers have been used in people to classify arrhythmogenic risk. The aims of this study were to investigate electrocardiographic markers of conduction and repolarization in Boxers and non-Boxer dogs, and compare such findings ...

Evaluation of ventricular repolarization variables in pediatric COVID-19
INTRODUCTION: Although the childhood clinic of COVID-19 is more innocent than adults, its unknown aspects continue to cause concern among pediatricians. One of these unsettling aspects is the cardiovascular system effects.

Association between Tpeak-Tend interval and QT prolongation: A study of sertindole and sotalol [PDF]
The electrocardiographic interval between the peak and the end of the T-wave (Tpe) is believed to be an arrhythmic risk marker. However, there are also a number of reports that are inconsistent with the usefulness of Tpe for identifying abnormal repolarization. This study was designed to investigate how the Tpe prolongation is correlated to a prolonged
