Abstract excerpt
AIMS: The purpose of the this study was to evaluate a possible genotype-phenotype correlation in BrS patients and to analyze possible associations with clinical events in affected patients. SCN5A gene encodes the alpha-subunit of the voltage-gated sodium channel NaV1.5. Its mutations are associated with a broad spectrum of hereditary arrhythmias such as long-QT syndrome, cardiac conduction diseases, and Brugada...
