Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: KCNE1 loss-of-function variants cause type 5 long QT syndrome (LQT5). However, most alleged LQT5-causative KCNE1 variants were identified before the true rate of background genetic variation was appreciated fully. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to reassess the clinical and electrophysiological (EP) phenotypes associated with KCNE1 variants detected in a single-center LQTS cohort. METHODS:...
