Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: The congenital Long QT Syndrome (LQTS) and Brugada Syndrome (BrS) are Mendelian autosomal dominant diseases that frequently precipitate fatal cardiac arrhythmias. Incomplete penetrance is a barrier to clinical management of heterozygotes harboring variants in the major implicated disease genes KCNQ1, KCNH2, and SCN5A. We apply and evaluate a Bayesian penetrance estimation strategy that accounts for this...
