Chromosome 4q25 variants are genetic modifiers of rare ion channel mutations associated with familial atrial fibrillation.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that 2 common polymorphisms in the chromosome 4q25 region that have been associated with atrial fibrillation (AF) contribute to the variable penetrance of familial AF. BACKGROUND Although mutations in ion channels, gap junction proteins, and signaling molecules have been described for Mendelian forms of AF, penetrance is highly varia...
متن کاملRare coding TTN variants are associated with electrocardiographic QT interval in the general population
We have shown previously that noncoding variants mapping around a specific set of 170 genes encoding cardiomyocyte intercalated disc (ID) proteins are more enriched for associations with QT interval than observed for genome-wide comparisons. At a false discovery rate (FDR) of 5%, we had identified 28 such ID protein-encoding genes. Here, we assessed whether coding variants at these 28 genes aff...
متن کاملSurgical Protocol and Outcome of 60 Cases With Intracranial Aneurysm
Background and Aim: This study aimed to present the results of early and delayed operation on patients with ruptured brain aneurysms. In addition to comparing the results and rates of morbidity and mortality in the surgical procedure and identifying the effective factors, this study aimed to provide methods to improve the treatment of brain aneurysm. Methods and Materials/Patients: This was a ...
متن کاملROBO2 gene variants are associated with familial vesicoureteral reflux.
The SLIT2 receptor ROBO2 plays a key role in the formation of the ureteric bud, and its inactivation in mice leads to supernumerary ureteric bud development, lack of ureter remodeling, and improper insertion of the ureters into the bladder. Recently, two heterozygous ROBO2 missense mutations were identified in two families with primary vesicoureteral reflux occurring in combination with congeni...
متن کاملShould we screen for familial intracranial aneurysm?
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to establish whether individuals with a family history of >/=2 first-degree relatives with intracranial aneurysm should be offered screening for aneurysm. METHODS We derived 3 theoretical models and calculated the outcomes of screening with magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) followed by digital subtraction angiography (DSA) if MRA was pos...
