SCN5A gene mutations and the risk of ventricular fibrillation and syncope in Brugada syndrome patients: A meta‐analysis

Abstract Mutations in the gene encoding the main cardiac sodium channel (SCN5A) are the commonest genetic cause of Brugada syndrome (BrS). However, the effect of SCN5A mutations on the outcomes of ventricular fibrillation (VF) and syncope remains uncertain. To clarify this relationship, a meta‐analy...
