Genetic Research on Cardiac Channelopathies in African and African-Descent Populations: A Scoping Review.

Journal of the American Heart Association - 1 Sept 2026

Taib Choshiman, El Makhzen Nada, Abriel Hugues

Abstract excerpt

Cardiac channelopathies are inherited arrhythmias that can lead to sudden cardiac death. Despite Africa's extensive genomic diversity, African and African-descent populations remain underrepresented in genetic research, creating gaps in variant interpretation and clinical care. This scoping review aims to map the extent, range, and nature of genetic research on cardiac channelopathies in these populations and to...
