Our meta-analysis demonstrates a statistically significant increased risk of SCD with AF in the general population and in those with previous myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease, heart failure, HCM, Brugada syndrome, and an implanted rhythm device.

Our study showed a highest prevalence of fever induced BrS ever reported. A larger study of prevalence, risk stratification, genetic test and management of fever-induced BrS should be done, especially in an endemic area.

Baseline fQRS increased major arrhythmic events up to 3-fold. Our study suggests that fQRS could be an important tool for risk assessment in patients with Brugada syndrome.
