Sudden cardiac death, frequently due to ventricular arrhythmias, is a significant problem
globally. Most affected individuals do not arrive at hospital in time for medical treatment …

Brugada syndrome (BrS) is an inherited ion channel channelopathy predisposing to
ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Originally believed to be predominantly …

The QT interval on the human electrocardiogram is normally in the order of 450 ms, and
reflects the summated durations of action potential (AP) depolarization and repolarization of …

New Findings• What is the central question of this study? Does the mechanical uncoupler
blebbistatin affect cardiac electrophysiology?• What is the main finding and what is its …

Background A combination of clinical and electrocardiographic risk factors is used for risk
stratification in Brugada syndrome. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that the …

Background Patients with chronic heart failure are at high risk of sudden cardiac death
(SCD). Increased dispersion of repolarization restitution has been associated with SCD, and …

This paper presents an innovative approach for T-wave peak detection and subsequent T-
wave end location in 12-lead paced ECG signals based on a mathematical model of a …

Background: Acquired QT interval prolongation has been linked with malignant ventricular
arrhythmias, such as torsade de pointes, in turn predisposing to sudden cardiac death …

Background: In ischemic cardiomyopathy, cardiac magnetic resonance assessment of the
peri-infarct zone, a potential substrate for arrhythmogenesis, may serve as a novel …

Background—The potential health benefits of ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs)
usually are studied using a combination of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and …
