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) from cardiac arrest is a major international public health
problem accounting for an estimated 15%–20% of all deaths. Although resuscitation rates …

Background It is unknown whether atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with an increased risk
of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in the general population. This association was examined in …

BACKGROUND: Means for distinguishing the very common “benign early repolarization”
from the very rare but malignant form are needed. Recently, the presence of early …

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

the character of the QRS complex and J point (notching or slurring), the magnitude and
duration of the J-point elevation, the elevation of the ST segment, and concomitant …

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 …

Early repolarization pattern (ERP) has recently been associated with idiopathic ventricular
fibrillation and with cardiovascular mortality in the general population. We aimed to identify …

Early repolarization indicates a distinct electrocardiographic phenotype affecting the junction
between the QRS complex and the ST segment in inferolateral leads (inferolateral J-wave …

Objectives: The objective of this analysis was to determine the natural history and
prospective association of cardiovascular risk factors with early repolarization (ER) …
