TL;DR
This study identifies harmful genetic variants in SCN5A linked to dangerous heart rhythms during a drug test in Brugada syndrome patients.
Contribution
The novelty lies in linking specific SCN5A pathogenic variants to ventricular fibrillation during ajmaline testing in Brugada syndrome.
Findings
Pathogenic variants in SCN5A are associated with ventricular fibrillation during ajmaline testing.
Findings follow ACMG guidelines for variant classification.
