PRKAG2 mutations are responsible for a diverse phenotype and not only the familial form of the WPW syndrome. Familial occurrence of right bundle branch block, sinus bradycardia, and short PR interval should raise suspicion of a mutant PRKAG2 gene.
Background: Chagas' cardiomyopathy is one important cause of heart failure in Latin America. Ventricular dyssynchrony may be a factor of decompensation in the course of this disease, but there are no data on its prevalence and its main prognostic implications yet.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
