title: Long QT syndrome.
abstract: In conclusion, much has been learned in the past several years regarding the molecular biology of LQTS, and this information has been directly applicable to the clinical care of patients with this syndrome. The knowledge also has been of considerable importance for understanding the molecular basis of arrhythmias in general and is providing insights into potential molecular-based therapies for arrhythmias.
