Executive summary: HRS/EHRA/APHRS expert consensus statement on the diagnosis and management of patients with inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes

TL;DR: This international consensus statement is the collaborative effort of three medical societies representing electrophysiology in North America, Europe, and Asian-Pacific area and summarizes the opinion of the international writing group members based on their own experience and on a general review of the literature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common variants at SCN5A-SCN10A and HEY2 are associated with Brugada syndrome, a rare disease with high risk of sudden cardiac death

- 01 Sep 2013 - 
TL;DR: The association signals at SCN5A-SCN10A demonstrate that genetic polymorphisms modulating cardiac conduction can also influence susceptibility to cardiac arrhythmia and indicate that common genetic variation can have a strong impact on the predisposition to rare diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the Mendelian autosomal-dominant inheritance with an electrocardiogram (ECG) and echocardiogram and found that the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) or left atrial enlargement carries a significant risk of thromboembolism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sudden arrhythmic death syndrome: familial evaluation identifies inheritable heart disease in the majority of families.

TL;DR: Over half of SADS deaths were likely to be due to inherited heart disease; accurate identification is vital for appropriate prophylaxis amongst relatives who should undergo comprehensive cardiological evaluation, guided and confirmed by mutation analysis.
