Andersen-Tawil syndrome: report of 3 novel mutations and high risk of symptomatic cardiac involvement. [PDF]
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 ...

The Genetics and Epigenetics of Ventricular Arrhythmias in Patients Without Structural Heart Disease
Ventricular arrhythmia without structural heart disease is an arrhythmic disorder that occurs in structurally normal heart and no transient or reversible arrhythmia factors, such as electrolyte disorders and myocardial ischemia.

Gene Transfer of Engineered Calmodulin Alleviates Ventricular Arrhythmias in a Calsequestrin-Associated Mouse Model of Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia [PDF]
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a familial arrhythmogenic syndrome characterized by sudden death. There are several genetic forms of CPVT associated with mutations in genes encoding the cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2 ...

Classification of Arrhythmia by Using Deep Learning with 2-D ECG Spectral Image Representation
The electrocardiogram (ECG) is one of the most extensively employed signals used in the diagnosis and prediction of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). The ECG signals can capture the heart's rhythmic irregularities, commonly known as arrhythmias.

Increased baseline ECG R-R dispersion predicts improvement in systolic function after atrial fibrillation ablation. [PDF]
BackgroundAtrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction which may improve after AF ablation. We hypothesised that increased ventricular irregularity, as measured by R-R dispersion on the baseline ECG, would ...

Cisapride and ventricular arrhythmia [PDF]
WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ABOUT THIS SUBJECT • Case reports have linked cisapride to ventricular arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death.• However, two prior epidemiological studies have failed to show an association between cisapride and serious arrhythmia.
