Aim
It has been known that ventricular repolarization plays an important role in ventricular arrhytmia. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the plasminogen activator inhibitör 1 (PAI-1) and factor XIII gene polymorphism influence repolarization parameters in ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, their relationship with repolarization parameters is known.
Study Design
We studied 108 patients (87 male and 21 female) with diagnosis of STEMI. For each patient, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) with a paper speed of 50 mm/s was recorded on admission. QT interval, QT dipersion and the peak and end of T wave ( Tpe) interval were manually calculated. The Tpe/QT was calculated Tpe interval divided by the QT interval in the V5 lead.Blood samples were obtained from all patients for genetic analysis before reperfusion therapy.
