Heritability of ECG Biomarkers in the Netherlands Twin Registry Measured from Holter ECGs.

Heritability of ECG Biomarkers in the Netherlands Twin Registry Measured from Holter ECGs.

INTRODUCTIONThe resting ECG is the most commonly used tool to assess cardiac electrophysiology. Previous studies have estimated heritability of ECG parameters based on these snapshots of the cardiac electrical activity. In this study we set out to determine whether analysis of heart rate specific da...
