Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Although QT prolongation following myocardial infarction (MI) is generally moderate, cases with marked QT prolongation leading to life-threatening torsades de pointes (TdP) have been described. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the genetic substrate of this phenomenon. METHODS: We studied 13...
