“…O paciente em questão, entretanto, é jovem e não tem história prévia de cardiopatia. Assim, supomos que o aparecimento de insuficiência cardíaca de baixo débito deva ter relação com o tempo sem tratamento (mais de um ano) e com a gravidade do hipertiroidismo (T4 livre de 15 ng/dl), porém não sendo esses os únicos mecanismos responsáveis pelas alterações nas proteínas contráteis e cardiomiopatia, principalmente em função de estudos sugerindo fatores genéticos relacionados ao surgimento de FA e eventualmente disfunção cardíaca (16).…”

“…Fatini et al (2006) found that in non-valvular Caucasian AF patients the 38G allele of the minK gene is associated with AF. Schreieck et al (2004) reported that the C825T polymorphism is associated with sporadic AF, while patients with the TT genotype show a higher I K1 current density. This result also suggests that changes in the ion channel inward rectifying function are associated with familiar and sporadic AF (Schreieck et al, 2004).…”

This result also suggests that changes in the ion channel inward rectifying function are associated with familiar and sporadic AF (Schreieck et al, 2004). Ackerman et al (2003) found two mutations in the Asian population, namely G38S (112G>A, 16.4% of heterozygote frequency) and D85N (253G>A, 0.7% of heterozygote frequency).…”

“…40,[46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58] Candidate gene studies focus on specific genes that are selected based on a priori knowledge of their function, and compare the frequency of the variants between cohorts of individuals with and without disease. 59 To date, a number of candidate-gene association studies have identified common variants that are more prevalent in AF populations compared with control populations.…”

“…59 To date, a number of candidate-gene association studies have identified common variants that are more prevalent in AF populations compared with control populations. 40,[46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58] Often, the candidate genes have been selected based on results of studies in familial AF. As summarised in Table 2, a The recent advent of GWAS has led to significant progress in our understanding of the genetic basis of AF.…”
