Drug-induced type 1 Brugada ECG: Lights and shadows
2018, International Journal of CardiologyInterictal cardiac repolarization abnormalities in people with epilepsy
2018, Epilepsy and BehaviorCitation Excerpt :The frequency of BP showed a wide range among different ethnic groups. The prevalence ranged from 0.22 to 6.1% in European populations [30–32] and from 0.146 to 0.7% in a Japanese population [33,34]. It should be noted that our result is based on analysis of a single ECG recording per subject and in both Brugada and ER syndromes, the ECG changes can occasionally disappear on follow-up [28].
