Long-Term Prognosis of Patients Diagnosed With Brugada Syndrome Results From the FINGER Brugada Syndrome Registry

TL;DR: In the largest series of Brugada syndrome patients thus far, event rates in asymptomatic patients were low and gender, familial history of SCD, inducibility of ventricular tachyarrhythmias during electrophysiological study, and the presence of an SCN5A mutation were not predictive of arrhythmic events.
Journal ArticleDOI

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

Connie R. Bezzina, +80 more

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.

PexeLizumab for Acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction in patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention: A randomized controlled trial

Paul W. Armstrong, +293 more
