The J-wave syndromes (JWSs), consisting of the Brugada syndrome (BrS) and early
repolarization syndrome (ERS), have captured the interest of the cardiology community over …

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) in an athlete is a rare yet highly visible tragedy that generates
significant media attention and discussion among medical personnel, sports communities …

Background—Early repolarization (ER) in inferior/lateral leads of standard ECGs increases
the risk of arrhythmic death. We tested the hypothesis that variations in the ST-segment …

Sudden cardiac death in a young athlete is a tragic and high-profile event. The best way to
prevent such deaths is, however, highly debated. The Italian experience informed the …

Sinus node dysfunction may be either transient (reversible/physiological) due to the
involvement of the autonomic nervous system or pharmaceuticals, or chronic due to …

Objectives: A meta-analysis was performed to determine the risk and incidence rate of
arrhythmia death, cardiac death, and all-cause death in the general population with the early …

Nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) has been recorded in a wide range of
conditions, from apparently healthy individuals to patients with significant heart disease. In …

The presence of J waves and ST-segment elevation on the electrocardiogram (ECG), jointly
termed “the early repolarization pattern,” has traditionally been considered a marker of …

Background: The early repolarization (ER) pattern is associated with an increased risk of
arrhythmogenic sudden death. However, strategies for risk stratification of patients with the …

The variations in the electrocardiographic patterns of J-point elevations, and the complex of
J-points and J-waves in early repolarization (ER), in conjunction with disparities in …
