Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Objective of this study was to determine the optimal (most heritable) phenotype for gene finding studies of QT interval in the general population. We also studied the extent to which heritability of QT interval can be explained by genes that also influence resting heart rate. METHODS AND RESULTS: Subjects in this classic twin study were 105 monozygotic and 256 dizygotic female twin pairs (mean age:...
