  Discussion of Repolarization Dynamics during the Menstrual Cycle in Women
  Author(s): Milica Horn*
  
  Women with inherent long QT disorder (LQTS) encounter expanded cardiac occasion hazard after the onset of puberty, maybe stemming from the known tweaking impacts of sex hormones on the cardiac potassium channels. We hypothesized that the impact of sex hormones on cardiac particle channel work may alter electrocardiographic (ECG) parameters related with the penchant for ventricular tachyarrhythmias amid the menstrual cycle in ladies with LQTS. Typically the first study to prospectively assess correlations between repolarization dynamics and sex hormone levels amid the menstrual cycle in ladies with innate LQTS. Our findings show genotype-specific special rectified QT elements amid the menstrual cycle which will influence the penchant for ventricular tachyarrhythmia in ladies with LQTS, especially ladies with LQT2...
