    Identification of a KCNQ1 polymorphism acting as a protective modifier against arrhythmic risk in long-QT syndrome.

    Human
    Abstract:
    Long-QT syndrome (LQTS) is characterized by such striking clinical heterogeneity that, even among family members carrying the same mutation, clinical outcome can range between sudden death and no symptoms. We investigated the role of genetic variants as modifiers of risk for cardiac events in patients with LQTS.
