Abstract
Recently, much attention has been focused on early repolarization and what has been called the “J wave syndrome,”1,2 based on the association between the early repolarization patterns observed in electrocardiograms (ECGs) and the risk of idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (VF), as reported by several researchers.2 The triggering mechanisms underlying J wave syndromes have not been fully elucidated. As for the causative genes for J wave syndromes, various genetic mutations related to sodium, calcium, and potassium channels have been reported to date.
