Genetic modulators of the phenotype in the long QT syndrome: state of the art and clinical impact.

Abstract excerpt

Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is one the best characterized disorders among all inherited arrhythmogenic syndromes. A multi-parametric risk stratification scheme, which includes clinical variables (QTc, gender) and the main LQTS genotypes, was defined in the early 2000s and is currently used in clinical practice. However, the evidence of a marked phenotypic variability, even in the presence of the same genetic mutation...
