Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to test whether a recently reported polymorphism in the HERG gene coding for the rapidly activating delayed rectifier K+ channel has influence on myocardial repolarization. BACKGROUND: The length of myocardial repolarization, measured as the QT interval, has a hereditary component, but no genes that would explain the variability of repolarization have been identified in...
