Abstract
While 3D chromatin organization in topologically associating domains (TADs) and loops mediating regulatory element-promoter interactions is crucial for tissue-specific gene regulation, the extent of their involvement in human Mendelian disease is largely unknown. Here, we identify 7 families presenting a new cardiac entity associated with a heterozygous deletion of 2 CTCF binding sites on 4q25, inducing TAD fusion and chromatin conformation remodeling. The CTCF binding sites are located in a gene desert at 1 Mb from the Paired-like homeodomain transcription factor 2 gene (PITX2). By introducing the ortholog of the human deletion in the mouse genome, we recapitulate the patient phenotype and characterize an opposite dysregulation of PITX2 expression in the sinoatrial node (ectopic activation) and ventricle (reduction), respectively. Chromatin conformation assay performed in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes harboring the minimal deletion identified in family#1 reveals a conformation remodeling and fusion of TADs. We conclude that TAD remodeling mediated by deletion of CTCF binding sites causes a new autosomal dominant Mendelian cardiac disorder.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) may cause sudden cardiac death (SCD) despite medical therapy. Therefore, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) are commonly advised. However, there are limited data on the outcomes of ICD use in children. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to compare the risk of arrhythmic events in pediatric patients with CPVT with and without ICD. METHODS We compared the risk of SCD in patients with RYR2 (ryanodine receptor 2) variants and phenotype-positive symptomatic patients with CPVT with and without ICD who were younger than 19 years and had no history of sudden cardiac arrest at phenotype diagnosis. The primary outcome was SCD; secondary outcomes were composite end points of SCD, sudden cardiac arrest, or appropriate ICD shocks with or without arrhythmic syncope. RESULTS The study included 235 patients, 73 with ICD (31.1%) and 162 without ICD (68.9%). Over a median follow-up of 8.0 years (interquartile range 4.3-13.4 years), SCD occurred in 7 patients (3.0%), of whom 4 (57.1%) were noncompliant with medications and none had an ICD. Patients with ICD had a higher risk of both secondary composite outcomes (without syncope: hazard ratio 5.85; 95% confidence interval 3.40-10.09; P < .0001; with syncope: hazard ratio 2.55; 95% confidence interval 1.50-4.34; P = .0005). Thirty-one patients with ICD (42.5%) experienced appropriate shocks, 18 (24.7%) inappropriate shocks, and 21 (28.8%) device-related complications. CONCLUSION SCD events occurred only in the no ICD group and in those not on optimal medical therapy. Patients with ICD had a high risk of appropriate and inappropriate shocks, which may be reduced with appropriate device programming. Severe ICD complications were common, and risks vs benefits of ICDs need to be considered.

Abstract
AIMS Heart failure (HF) is a chronic disease affecting 64 million people worldwide and places a severe burden on society because of its mortality, numerous re-hospitalizations and associated costs. HeartLogic™ is an algorithm programmed into implanted devices incorporating several biometric parameters which aims to predict HF episodes. It provides an index which can be monitored remotely, allowing pre-emptive treatment of congestion to prevent acute decompensation. We aim to assess the impact and security of pre-emptive HF management, guided by the HeartLogic™ index. METHODS AND RESULTS The HeartLogic™ France Cohort Study is an investigator-initiated, prospective, multi-centre, non-randomized study. Three hundred ten patients with a history of HF (left ventricular ejection fraction ≤40%; or at least one episode of clinical HF with elevated NT-proBNP ≥450 ng/L) and implanted with a cardioverter defibrillator enabling HeartLogic™ index calculation will be included across 10 French centres. The HeartLogic™ index will be monitored remotely for 12 months and in the event of a HeartLogic™ index ≥16, the local investigator will contact the patient for assessment and adjust HF treatment as necessary. The primary endpoint is unscheduled hospitalization for HF. Secondary endpoints are all-cause mortality, cardiovascular death, HF-related death, unscheduled hospitalizations for ventricular or atrial arrhythmia and HeartLogic™ index evolution over time. Blood samples will be collected for biobanking, and quality of life will be assessed. Finally, the safety of a HeartLogic™-triggered strategy for initiating or increasing diuretic therapy will be assessed. A blind and independent committee will adjudicate the events. CONCLUSIONS The HeartLogic™ France Cohort Study will provide robust real-world data in a cohort of HF patients managed with the HeartLogic™ algorithm allowing pre-emptive treatment of heart failure exacerbations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The efficacy of beta-blocker treatment in type 3 long QT syndrome (LQT3) remains debated. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that beta-blocker use is associated with cardiac events (CEs) in a French cohort of LQT3 patients. METHODS All patients with a likely pathogenic/pathogenic variant in the SCN5A gene (linked to LQT3) were included and followed-up. Documented ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation, torsades de pointes, aborted cardiac arrest, sudden death, and appropriate shocks were considered as severe cardiac events (SCEs). CEs also included syncope. RESULTS We included 147 patients from 54 families carrying 23 variants. Six of the patients developed symptoms before the age of 1 year and were analyzed separately. The 141 remaining patients (52.5% male; median age at diagnosis 24.0 years) were followed-up for a median of 11 years. The probabilities of a CE and an SCE from birth to the age of 40 were 20.5% and 9.9%, respectively. QTc prolongation (hazard ratio [HR] 1.12 [1.0-1.2]; P = .005]) and proband status (HR 4.07 [1.9-8.9]; P <.001) were independently associated with the occurrence of CEs. Proband status (HR 8.13 [1.7-38.8]; P = .009) was found to be independently associated with SCEs, whereas QTc prolongation (HR 1.11 [1.0-1.3]; P = .108) did not reach statistical significance. The cumulative probability of the age at first CE/SCE was not lower in patients treated with a beta-blocker. CONCLUSION In agreement with the literature, proband status and lengthened QTc were associated with a higher risk of CEs. Our data do not show a protective effect of beta-blocker treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The PRAETORIAN score estimates the risk of failure of subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) therapy by using generator and lead positioning on bidirectional chest radiographs. The PRospective randomized compArative trial of subcutanEous implanTable cardiOverter-defibrillatoR ImplANtation with and without DeFibrillation Testing (PRAETORIAN-DFT) investigates whether PRAETORIAN score calculation is noninferior to defibrillation testing (DFT) with regard to first shock efficacy in spontaneous events. OBJECTIVE This prespecified subanalysis assessed the predictive value of the PRAETORIAN score for defibrillation success in induced ventricular arrhythmias. METHODS This multicenter investigator-initiated trial randomized 965 patients between DFT and PRAETORIAN score calculation after de novo S-ICD implantation. Successful DFT was defined as conversion of induced ventricular arrhythmia in <5 seconds from shock delivery within 2 attempts. Bidirectional chest radiographs were obtained after implantation. The predictive value of the PRAETORIAN score for DFT success was calculated for patients in the DFT arm. RESULTS In total, 482 patients were randomized to undergo DFT. Of these patients, 457 (95%) underwent DFT according to protocol, of whom 445 (97%) had successful DFT and 12 (3%) had failed DFT. A PRAETORIAN score of ≥90 had a positive predictive value of 25% for failed DFT, and a PRAETORIAN score of <90 had a negative predictive value of 99% for successful DFT. A PRAETORIAN score of ≥90 was the strongest independent predictor for failed DFT (odds ratio 33.77; confidence interval 6.13-279.95; P < .001). CONCLUSION A PRAETORIAN score of <90 serves as a reliable indicator for DFT success in patients with S-ICD, and a PRAETORIAN score of ≥90 is a strong predictor for DFT failure.

Abstract
AIMS In patients with catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), a rare inherited arrhythmia syndrome, arrhythmic events can be prevented by medication and lifestyle recommendations. In patients who experience breakthrough arrhythmic events, non-adherence plays an essential role. We aimed to investigate the incidence and potential reasons for non-adherence to medication and lifestyle recommendations in a large, international cohort of patients with CPVT. METHODS AND RESULTS An online multilingual survey was shared with CPVT patients worldwide by their cardiologists, through peer-recruitment, and on social media from November 2022 until July 2023. Self-reported non-adherence was measured using the validated Medication Adherence Rating Scale (MARS) and a newly developed questionnaire about lifestyle. Additionally, validated questionnaires were used to assess potential reasons for medication non-adherence. Two-hundred-and-eighteen patients completed the survey, of whom 200 (92%) were prescribed medication [122 (61%) female; median age 33.5 years (interquartile range: 22-50)]. One-hundred-and-three (52%) were prescribed beta-blocker and flecainide, 85 (43%) beta-blocker, and 11 (6%) flecainide. Thirty-four (17%) patients experienced a syncope, aborted cardiac arrest or appropriate implantable cardioverter defibrillator shock after diagnosis. Nineteen (13.4%) patients were exercising more than recommended. Thirty (15%) patients were non-adherent to medication. Female sex [odds ratio (OR) 3.7, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.3-12.0, P = 0.019], flecainide monotherapy compared to combination therapy (OR 6.8, 95% CI 1.6-31.0, P = 0.010), and a higher agreement with statements regarding concerns about CPVT medication (OR 1.2, 95% CI 1.1-1.3, P < 0.001) were independently associated with non-adherence. CONCLUSION The significant rate of non-adherence associated with concerns regarding CPVT-related medication, emphasizes the potential for improving therapy adherence by targeted patient education.

Abstract
Although there is consensus on the management of patients with Brugada Syndrome with high risk for sudden cardiac arrest, asymptomatic or intermediate-risk patients present clinical management challenges. This document explores the management opinions of experts throughout the world for patients with Brugada Syndrome who do not fit guideline recommendations. Four real-world clinical scenarios were presented with commentary from small expert groups for each case. All authors voted on case-specific questions to evaluate the level of consensus among the entire group in nuanced diagnostic and management decisions relevant to each case. Points of agreement, points of controversy, and gaps in knowledge are highlighted.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Mapping advances have expanded both the feasibility and benefits of ablation as a therapeutic approach, including in the treatment of two heart conditions that contribute to sudden cardiac death in young people: Brugada syndrome (BrS) and early repolarization syndrome (ERS). Although these conditions share a number of similarities, debates persist regarding the underlying pathophysiology and origin of the ventricular arrhythmias associated with them. AREAS COVERED By synthesizing available data (PubMed), including current recommendations, pathophysiological insights and case reports, patient registries, our aim is to elucidate and establish the nuanced role of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in therapeutic management. EXPERT OPINION RFA is a particularly promising approach in BrS, with a proven long-term benefit. Concerning ERS, RFA seems to be interesting at the price of more complex procedures with more nuanced results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In severely affected patients with catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, beta-blockers are often insufficiently protective. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether flecainide is associated with a lower incidence of arrhythmic events (AEs) when added to beta-blockers in a large cohort of patients with catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia. METHODS From 2 international registries, this multicenter case cross-over study included patients with a clinical or genetic diagnosis of catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia in whom flecainide was added to beta-blocker therapy. The study period was defined as the period in which background therapy (ie, beta-blocker type [beta1-selective or nonselective]), left cardiac sympathetic denervation, and implantable cardioverter defibrillator treatment status, remained unchanged within individual patients and was divided into pre-flecainide and on-flecainide periods. The primary end point was AEs, defined as sudden cardiac death, sudden cardiac arrest, appropriate implantable cardioverter defibrillator shock, and arrhythmic syncope. The association of flecainide with AE rates was assessed using a generalized linear mixed model assuming negative binomial distribution and random effects for patients. RESULTS A total of 247 patients (123 [50%] females; median age at start of flecainide, 18 years [interquartile range, 14-29]; median flecainide dose, 2.2 mg/kg per day [interquartile range, 1.7-3.1]) were included. At baseline, all patients used a beta-blocker, 70 (28%) had an implantable cardioverter defibrillator, and 21 (9%) had a left cardiac sympathetic denervation. During a median pre-flecainide follow-up of 2.1 years (interquartile range, 0.4-7.2), 41 patients (17%) experienced 58 AEs (annual event rate, 5.6%). During a median on-flecainide follow-up of 2.9 years (interquartile range, 1.0-6.0), 23 patients (9%) experienced 38 AEs (annual event rate, 4.0%). There were significantly fewer AEs after initiation of flecainide (incidence rate ratio, 0.55 [95% CI, 0.38-0.83]; P=0.007). Among patients who were symptomatic before diagnosis or during the pre-flecainide period (n=167), flecainide was associated with significantly fewer AEs (incidence rate ratio, 0.49 [95% CI, 0.31-0.77]; P=0.002). Among patients with ≥1 AE on beta-blocker therapy (n=41), adding flecainide was also associated with significantly fewer AEs (incidence rate ratio, 0.25 [95% CI, 0.14-0.45]; P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS For patients with catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, adding flecainide to beta-blocker therapy was associated with a lower incidence of AEs in the overall cohort, in symptomatic patients, and particularly in patients with breakthrough AEs while on beta-blocker therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Slow-conductive structural abnormalities located in the epicardium of the right ventricle (RV) underlie Brugada syndrome (BrS). The extent of such substrate in the left ventricle (LV) has not been investigated. OBJECTIVES This study sought to characterize the extent of epicardial substrate abnormalities in BrS. METHODS We evaluated 22 consecutive patients (mean age 46 ± 11 years, 21 male) referred for recurrent ventricular arrhythmias (mean 10 ± 13 episodes) in the setting of BrS. The patients underwent clinical investigations and wide genetic screening to identify SCN5A mutations and common risk variants. High-density biventricular epicardial mapping was performed to detect prolonged (>70 ms) fragmented electrograms, indicating abnormal substrate area. RESULTS All patients presented with abnormal substrate in the epicardial anterior RV (27 ± 11 cm2). Abnormal substrate was also identified on the LV epicardium in 10 patients (45%), 9 at baseline and 1 after ajmaline infusion, covering 15 ± 11 cm2. Of these, 4 had severe LV fascicular blocks. Patients with LV substrate had a longer history of arrhythmia (11.4 ± 6.7 years vs 4.3 ± 4.3 years; P = 0.003), longer PR (217 ± 24 ms vs 171 ± 14 ms; P < 0.001) and HV (60 ± 12 ms vs 46 ± 5 ms; P = 0.005) intervals, and abnormal substrate also extending into the inferior RV (100% vs 33%; P = 0.001). SCN5A mutation was present in 70% of patients with LV substrate (vs 25%; P = 0.035). SCN5A BrS patients with recurrent ventricular arrhythmias present a higher polygenic risk score compared with a nonselected BrS population (median of differences: -0.86; 95% CI: -1.48 to -0.27; P = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS A subset of patients with BrS present an abnormal substrate extending onto the LV epicardium and inferior RV that is associated with SCN5A mutations and multigenic variants.

Abstract
AIMS Calmodulinopathy due to mutations in any of the three CALM genes (CALM1-3) causes life-threatening arrhythmia syndromes, especially in young individuals. The International Calmodulinopathy Registry (ICalmR) aims to define and link the increasing complexity of the clinical presentation to the underlying molecular mechanisms. METHODS AND RESULTS The ICalmR is an international, collaborative, observational study, assembling and analysing clinical and genetic data on CALM-positive patients. The ICalmR has enrolled 140 subjects (median age 10.8 years [interquartile range 5-19]), 97 index cases and 43 family members. CALM-LQTS and CALM-CPVT are the prevalent phenotypes. Primary neurological manifestations, unrelated to post-anoxic sequelae, manifested in 20 patients. Calmodulinopathy remains associated with a high arrhythmic event rate (symptomatic patients, n = 103, 74%). However, compared with the original 2019 cohort, there was a reduced frequency and severity of all cardiac events (61% vs. 85%; P = .001) and sudden death (9% vs. 27%; P = .008). Data on therapy do not allow definitive recommendations. Cardiac structural abnormalities, either cardiomyopathy or congenital heart defects, are present in 30% of patients, mainly CALM-LQTS, and lethal cases of heart failure have occurred. The number of familial cases and of families with strikingly different phenotypes is increasing. CONCLUSION Calmodulinopathy has pleiotropic presentations, from channelopathy to syndromic forms. Clinical severity ranges from the early onset of life-threatening arrhythmias to the absence of symptoms, and the percentage of milder and familial forms is increasing. There are no hard data to guide therapy, and current management includes pharmacological and surgical antiadrenergic interventions with sodium channel blockers often accompanied by an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator.

Abstract
In the early nineties, few years before the birth of Europace, the clinical and scientific world of familial arrhythmogenic conditions was revolutionized by the identification of the first disease-causing genes. The explosion of genetic studies over a 15-year period led to the discovery of major disease-causing genes in practically all channelopathies and cardiomyopathies, bringing insight into the pathophysiological mechanisms of these conditions. The birth of next generation sequencing allowed a further step forward and other significant genes, as CALM1-3 in channelopathies and FLN C and TTN in cardiomyopathies were identified. Genotype-phenotype studies allowed the implementation of the genetic results in diagnosis, risk stratification, and therapeutic management with a different level of evidence in different arrhythmogenic conditions. The influence of common genetic variants, i.e. SNPs, on disease manifestation was proved in mid-twenties, and in the last 10 years with the advent of genome-wide association studies performed in familial arrhythmogenic diseases, the concept of polygenic risk score has been consolidated. Now, we are at the start of another amazing phase, i.e. the initiation of first gene therapy clinical trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Very few data have been published on the use of subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (S-ICDs) in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to analyze outcomes associated with S-ICDs in patients with CHD. METHODS This nationwide French cohort including all patients with an S-ICD was initiated in 2020 by the French Institute of Health and Medical Research. Characteristics at implantation and outcomes were analyzed in patients with CHD. RESULTS From October 12, 2012, to December 31, 2019, among 4,924 patients receiving an S-ICD implant in 150 centers, 101 (2.1%) had CHD. Tetralogy of Fallot, univentricular heart, and dextro-transposition of the great arteries represented almost one-half of the population. Patients with CHD were significantly younger (age 37.1 ± 15.4 years vs 50.1 ± 14.9 years; P < 0.001), more frequently female (37.6% vs 23.0%; P < 0.001), more likely to receive an S-ICD for secondary prevention (72.3% vs 35.9%; P < 0.001), and less likely to have severe systolic dysfunction of the systemic ventricle (28.1% vs 53.1%; P < 0.001). Over a mean follow-up period of 1.9 years, 16 (15.8%) patients with CHD received at least 1 appropriate shock, with all shocks successfully terminating the ventricular arrhythmia. The crude risk of appropriate S-ICD shock was twice as high in patients with CHD compared with non-CHD patients (annual incidences of 9.0% vs 4.4%; HR: 2.1; 95% CI: 1.3-3.4); however, this association was no longer significant after propensity matching (especially considering S-ICD indication, P = 0.12). The burden of all complications (HR: 1.2; 95% CI: 0.7-2.1; P = 0.4) and inappropriate shocks (HR: 0.9; 95% CI: 0.4-2.0; P = 0.9) was comparable in both groups. CONCLUSIONS In this nationwide study, patients with CHD represented 2% of all S-ICD implantations. Our findings emphasize the effectiveness and safety of S-ICD in this particularly high-risk population. (S-ICD French Cohort Study [HONEST]; NCT05302115).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Brugada syndrome is a significant cause of sudden cardiac death (SCD), but the underlying mechanisms remain hypothetical. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to elucidate this knowledge gap through detailed ex vivo human heart studies. METHODS A heart was obtained from a 15-year-old adolescent boy with normal electrocardiogram who experienced SCD. Postmortem genotyping was performed, and clinical examinations were done on first-degree relatives. The right ventricle was optically mapped, followed by high-field magnetic resonance imaging and histology. Connexin-43 and NaV1.5 were localized by immunofluorescence, and RNA and protein expression levels were studied. HEK-293 cell surface biotinylation assays were performed to examine NaV1.5 trafficking. RESULTS A Brugada-related SCD diagnosis was established for the donor because of a SCN5A Brugada-related variant (p.D356N) inherited from his mother, together with a concomitant NKX2.5 variant of unknown significance. Optical mapping demonstrated a localized epicardial region of impaired conduction near the outflow tract, in the absence of repolarization alterations and microstructural defects, leading to conduction blocks and figure-of-8 patterns. NaV1.5 and connexin-43 localizations were normal in this region, consistent with the finding that the p.D356N variant does not affect the trafficking, nor the expression of NaV1.5. Trends of decreased NaV1.5, connexin-43, and desmoglein-2 protein levels were noted; however, the RT-qPCR results suggested that the NKX2-5 variant was unlikely to be involved. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates for the first time that SCD associated with a Brugada-SCN5A variant can be caused by localized functionally, not structurally, impaired conduction.

Abstract
A single missense variant of the TMPO/LAP2α gene, encoding LAP2 proteins, has been associated with cardiomyopathy in two brothers. To further evaluate its role in cardiac muscle, we included TMPO in our cardiomyopathy diagnostic gene panel. A screening of ~5000 patients revealed three novel rare TMPO heterozygous variants in six males diagnosed with hypertrophic or dilated cardiomypathy. We identified in different cellular models that (1) the frameshift variant LAP2α p.(Gly395Glufs*11) induced haploinsufficiency, impeding cell proliferation and/or producing a truncated protein mislocalized in the cytoplasm; (2) the C-ter missense variant LAP2α p.(Ala240Thr) led to a reduced proximity events between LAP2α and the nucleosome binding protein HMGN5; and (3) the LEM-domain missense variant p.(Leu124Phe) decreased both associations of LAP2α/β with the chromatin-associated protein BAF and inhibition of the E2F1 transcription factor activity which is known to be dependent on Rb, partner of LAP2α. Additionally, the LAP2α expression was lower in the left ventricles of male mice compared to females. In conclusion, our study reveals distinct altered properties of LAP2 induced by these TMPO/LAP2 variants, leading to altered cell proliferation, chromatin structure or gene expression-regulation pathways, and suggests a potential sex-dependent role of LAP2 in myocardial function and disease.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Heart failure (HF) is a chronic disease affecting 64 million people worldwide and places a severe burden on society because of its mortality, numerous re-hospitalizations and associated costs [1–4]. HeartLogic is an algorithm incorporating several biometric parameters which aims to predict HF episodes. It provides an index which can be monitored remotely, allowing preemptive treatment of congestion to prevent acute decompensation [5–7].
Objectives
We aim to provide real-world data on the impact of pre-emptive HF management, guided by the HeartLogic index on unscheduled HF hospitalizations in a substantial cohort of patients.
Methods
The HeartLogic French Study is an investigator-initiated, prospective, multi-centre, non-randomized study. All in all, 310 patients with a history of HF (left ventricular ejection fraction ≤40%; or at least one episode of clinical HF with elevated NT-proBNP ≥450 ng/L) and implanted with a cardioverter defibrillator enabling HeartLogic index calculation will be included across 10 French centers. The HeartLogic index will be monitored remotely on a weekly basis for 12 months and in case of HeartLogic index ≥16, the local investigator will contact the patient for assessment and adjust HF treatment as necessary. The primary endpoint is unscheduled hospitalization for HF. Secondary endpoints are all-cause mortality, cardiovascular death, HF-related death, and unscheduled hospitalizations for ventricular or atrial arrhythmia. Blood samples will be collected for biobanking, and quality of life will be assessed. A blind and independent committee will adjudicate the events.
Conclusions
The HeartLogic French Cohort Study will provide robust real-world data on HF hospitalization in a cohort of patients managed with the HeartLogic algorithm allowing preemptive treatment of congestion.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
We have recently demonstrated association of unexplained sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) with inheritance of catecholamine induced QT prolongation (CIQTP).
Objective
We here aim to describe incidence, characteristics and prognosis of this new syndrome in young patients with unexplained SCA or their relatives.
Methods
We reviewed the medical screening of all consecutive patients or their first-degree relatives explore from 2015 after the occurrence of a SCA before age 45. Structural heart disease or inherited arrhythmia diseases were excluded. A mental stress test was performed, as previously described, for each family members. All families with a positive mental stress were included in the study. Genetic screening was performed in at least one positive patient per family using targeted sequencing on a panel of 109 genes associated with inherited arrhythmias and cardiomyopathies.
Results
Among 456 patients screened (24 after SCA, 432 for familial screening) of 153 families, we identified 10 families (6.5%) with a catecholamine induced QT prolongation. No mutation was identified in these families. One hundred and ten patients were screened in CIQTP families. Thirty-four patients (30.9%) presented a CIQTP (mean age 42±20 yo, 64.7% of women). Five (14.7%) patients presented with previous symptoms (including 4 syncope and 1 SCA).
Two patients (5.9%) were implanted with an ICD and eleven (32.3%) were treated with beta blocker therapy mainly because of QT prolongation >500 ms after mental stress test or previous symptoms.
After a 3.6±1.8 years of follow up, no sudden cardiac death nor syncope occurred on beta blocker therapy except for one patient implanted with an ICD after a SCA. Under beta blocker treatment the patient was asymptomatic for 5 years. After a suddenly stop of the beta blocker treatment, the patient underwent VF. For 3 years now the patient is asymptomatic under beta blocker treatment.
Conclusions
In our experience, CIQTP families represent 6.5% of cases of unexplained SCD and suggest systematic screening with a mental stress test for family screening after the occurrence of a SCA. Beta blocker therapy is very efficient to reduce the risk of SCA.

Abstract
Abstract
In a first family (family#1), we identified 53 members of whom 17 present a syndromic cardiac disorder characterized by electrical disorders (sinus node dysfunction, atrial fibrillation...) and developmental defects (atrial septal defect, valvopathy, left ventricle non-compaction...) following an autosomal dominant model. Among the affected family members, 6 are implanted with a pacemaker and one experienced a sudden death at 43yo. Despite a strong linkage pointing to the 4q25 region, exome sequencing failed to identify causal variant. Interestingly, 6 additional non-related families presenting the same phenotype have been also identified.
Our aims are to identity the causal mutation and the molecular mechanism underlying this complex cardiac syndrome.
Genetic study has been performed using whole genome sequencing (WGS). Based on transgenic mouse strains, we assessed the impact of Family#1 mutation on the phenotype and on gene expression. Then, we generated human cardiomyocytes derived iPS cells (CM-iPS) isogenic models to evaluate the epigenome (CUT&RUN and ATAC-seq), transcriptome (RNA-seq) and topological associated domain (TAD) remodelling (Hi-C).
By WGS we uncovered a deletion of 15kb in a gene desert area on 4q25, segregating in all affected relatives of Family#1. The 6 other families present overlapping deletions. Mouse model recapitulates the cardiac phenotype and exhibit a dysregulation of Pitx2 expression in cardiac specific compartments. Based on human CM-iPS models, epigenetic data highlight among the 15kb deletion a unique open region containing a CTCF binding site, crucial for delimiting TAD boundaries. Hi-C assay reveals the fusion of 2 TADs and highlights new interactions between PITX2 and atrial specific regulatory elements.
We identified a deletion located within a gene desert area associated with a complex cardiac disorder. The CTCF binding site contained in the deletion seems key in the TAD border. The TAD remodelling leads to new (regulatory) interactions and expression dysregulation of PITX2. We describe a new molecular mechanism implying a yet unidentified non-coding regulatory element of PITX2 and responsible for a complex electrical and developmental cardiac syndrome.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Mutations in SCN5A are identified in approximately 20% to 30% of probands affected by Brugada syndrome (BrS). However, in familial studies, the relationship between SCN5A mutations and BrS remains poorly understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of SCN5A mutations and BrS in a group of large genotyped families.
Methods
Families were included if at least 3 family members were carriers of the SCN5A mutation, which was identified in the proband. Families were recruited from 12 tertiary centers in France between 1995 and 2020. Type 1 ST elevation was defined by ≥2 mm J-point elevation with coved ST segment and negative T wave.
Results
Forty-nine large families composed of 600 members including 304 mutation carriers (51%) were studied. The signature type I ECG was present in 160 mutation carriers (BrS-ECG+; 53%). In 42 families, we found 33 individuals affected by BrS but with a negative genotype (mutation-negative BrS-ECG+). Among them, 5 patients have an ECG suggestive of BrS but without the complete signature type I ECG. Among these 33 mutation-negative BrS-ECG+ individuals, 3 (9%), belonging to 3 different families, had a spontaneous type I ECG, whereas 28 had a type I ECG only after the administration of sodium channel blockers. Three of these 33 individuals (9%) had also experienced syncope. Mutation carriers had, on average, longer PR (190±36 ms vs 154±29 ms, p<0.0001) and QRS (107±19 vs 92±29 ms, p<0.0001) intervals than noncarriers, demonstrating that these mutations exerted functional effects.
Conclusions
Our results suggest that SCN5A mutations are not directly causal to the occurrence of a BrS-ECG+ and that genetic background may play a powerful role in the pathophysiology of BrS. These findings are consistent with the notion that the pathophysiology of BrS includes various elements beyond mutant sodium channels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The risk of adverse cardiovascular events in patients with acute myocarditis (AM) and desmosomal gene variants (DGV) remains unknown. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to ascertain the risk of death, ventricular arrhythmias, recurrent myocarditis, and heart failure (main endpoint) in patients with AM and pathogenic or likely pathogenetic DGV. METHODS In a retrospective international study from 23 hospitals, 97 patients were included: 36 with AM and DGV (DGV[+]), 25 with AM and negative gene testing (DGV[-]), and 36 with AM without genetics testing. All patients had troponin elevation plus findings consistent with AM on histology or at cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR). In 86 patients, CMR changes in function and structure were re-assessed at follow-up. RESULTS In the DGV(+) AM group (88.9% DSP variants), median age was 24 years, 91.7% presented with chest pain, and median left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was 56% on CMR (P = NS vs the other 2 groups). Kaplan-Meier curves demonstrated a higher risk of the main endpoint in DGV(+) AM compared with DGV(-) and without genetics testing patients (62.3% vs 17.5% vs 5.3% at 5 years, respectively; P < 0.0001), driven by myocarditis recurrence and ventricular arrhythmias. At follow-up CMR, a higher number of late gadolinium enhanced segments was found in DGV(+) AM. CONCLUSIONS Patients with AM and evidence of DGV have a higher incidence of adverse cardiovascular events compared with patients with AM without DGV. Further prospective studies are needed to ascertain if genetic testing might improve risk stratification of patients with AM who are considered at low risk.

Abstract
AIMS Sports practice, especially in competition, is usually restrained in patients diagnosed with long QT syndrome (LQTS). Although data are scarce, a low incidence of cardiac arrhythmic events (CAEs) during sports practice is reported. We aim to evaluate the incidence of CAE during sports practice in LQTS patients. METHODS AND RESULTS All consecutive patients above 18 years of age diagnosed with LQTS and prospectively followed at the referral centre for inherited arrhythmia syndrome received a survey to retrospectively assess their sports practice prior to and after the diagnosis of LQTS. Two hundred and forty-six patients were included (57% females). The median age was 43 years, and the median QTc was 457 ms (428; 482). Patients reported a total of 4092 years [1376 (34%) after diagnosis] of sports practice: 2905 (77%) [1138 (39%) after diagnosis] years of leisure practice and 1187 (23%) [238 (20%) after diagnosis] years of competitive practice. One hundred and eighty (73%) patients practiced sport prior to the diagnosis of LQTS and 170 (69%) after. Prior to the diagnosis, four (2%) patients presented a CAE during leisure sports practice and one during competition. After diagnosis, only one patient presented a CAE, appropriately treated by an implantable cardioverter defibrillator discharge, in the context of beta-blocker non-compliance. The CAE event rate was 0.0007 events/year in the 1376 years of total sports practice after the diagnosis of LQTS. CONCLUSION After the diagnosis of LQTS, the occurrence of CAE is very low during sports practice, even in competitive practice. There was no CAE in patients properly treated with beta-blocker therapy with good compliance.

Abstract
Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy with right dominant form (ACR) is a rare heritable cardiac cardiomyopathy disorder associated with sudden cardiac death. Pathogenic variants in desmosomal genes have been causally related to ACR in 40% of cases. Other genes encoding non desmosomal proteins have been described in ACR but their contribution in this pathology is still debated. A panel of 71 genes associated with inherited cardiopathies was screened in an ACR population of 172 probands and 856 individuals from the general population. Pathogenic variants (PV) and variants of uncertain significance (VUS) have been identified in 36% and 18.6% of patients respectively. Among the cardiopathy associated genes, burden tests show a significant enrichment in PV and VUS only for desmosomal genes PKP2, DSP, DSC2 and DSG2. Importantly, VUS may account for 15% of ACR cases and should then be considered for molecular diagnosis. Among the other genes, no evidence of enrichment was detected, suggesting an extreme caution in the interpretation of these genetic variations without associated functional or segregation data. Genotype-phenotype correlation points to 1) a more severe and earlier onset of the disease in PV and VUS carriers, underlying the importance to carry out presymptomatic diagnosis in relatives and 2) to a more prevalent left ventricular dysfunction in DSP variant carriers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Infection remains a major complication of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) and can lead to significant morbidity and mortality. Implantable devices that avoid transvenous leads, such as the subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD), can reduce the risk of serious infection-related complications, such as bloodstream infection and infective endocarditis. While the 2017 AHA/ACC/HRS guidelines include recommendations for S-ICD use for patients at high risk of infection, currently, there are no clinical trial data that address best practices for the prevention of S-ICD infections. Therefore, an expert panel was convened to develop consensus on these topics. METHODS An expert process mapping methodology was used to achieve consensus on the appropriate steps to minimize or prevent S-ICD infections. Two face-to-face meetings of high-volume S-ICD implanters and an infectious diseases specialist, with expertise on cardiovascular implantable electronic device infections, were conducted to develop consensus on useful strategies pre-, peri-, and post-implant to reduce S-ICD infection risk. RESULTS Expert panel consensus of recommended steps for patient preparation, S-ICD implantation, and post-operative management were developed to provide guidance in individual patient management. CONCLUSION Achieving expert panel consensus by process mapping methodology for S-ICD infection prevention was attainable, and the results should be helpful to clinicians in adopting interventions to minimize risks of S-ICD infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Syncope in patients with an early repolarization (ER) pattern presents a challenge for clinicians as it has been identified as an indicator of a higher risk of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias (VAs). OBJECTIVE This study aimed to analyze the outcome of patients with an ER pattern and syncope, and to evaluate the factors predictive of VAs. METHODS Over a period of 5 years, we enrolled 143 patients with an ER pattern and syncope in a multicenter prospective registry. RESULTS Following the initial examinations, 97 patients (67.8%) were implanted with a device allowing electrocardiogram monitoring, including 84 with an implantable loop recorder. During a mean follow-up of 68 ± 34 months, we documented 16 arrhythmias presumably responsible for syncope (5 VAs, 10 bradycardias, and 1 supraventricular tachycardia). Additionally, recurrent syncope not associated with electrocardiogram documentation occurred in 16 patients (11.2%). The cause of syncope was identified in 23 of 97 (23.8%) patients with a monitoring device. The 5-year incidence of VAs and arrhythmic events presumably responsible for syncope was 4.9% and 11.0%, respectively. Patients who developed VAs showed no prodromes or specific triggers at the time of syncope. Neither the presence of a family history of sudden cardiac death nor the previously reported high-risk electrocardiographic parameters differed between patients with and without VAs. CONCLUSIONS VAs occurred in 4.9% of patients with an ER pattern and syncope. Device implantation based on detailed history taking seems to be a reasonable strategy. Previously reported high-risk electrocardiographic patterns did not identify patients with VAs.

Abstract
AIMS Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a common valvular heart disease with a prevalence of >2% in the general adult population. Despite this high incidence, there is a limited understanding of the molecular mechanism of this disease, and no medical therapy is available for this disease. We aimed to elucidate the genetic basis of MVP in order to better understand this complex disorder. METHODS AND RESULTS We performed a meta-analysis of six genome-wide association studies that included 4884 cases and 434 649 controls. We identified 14 loci associated with MVP in our primary analysis and 2 additional loci associated with a subset of the samples that additionally underwent mitral valve surgery. Integration of epigenetic, transcriptional, and proteomic data identified candidate MVP genes including LMCD1, SPTBN1, LTBP2, TGFB2, NMB, and ALPK3. We created a polygenic risk score (PRS) for MVP and showed an improved MVP risk prediction beyond age, sex, and clinical risk factors. CONCLUSION We identified 14 genetic loci that are associated with MVP. Multiple analyses identified candidate genes including two transforming growth factor-β signalling molecules and spectrin β. We present the first PRS for MVP that could eventually aid risk stratification of patients for MVP screening in a clinical setting. These findings advance our understanding of this common valvular heart disease and may reveal novel therapeutic targets for intervention.

Abstract
Catecholamine-induced QT prolongation (CIQTP) is an inherited cardiac disease characterized by a normal baseline ECG and a risk of sudden cardiac death by ventricular arrhythmia due to a QT prolongation that only appears during catecholergic stimulation, especially mental stress. Induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) were generated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells collected from two CIQTP-affected patients from two different families. These two hiPSC lines are a valuable model to study biological alterations due to CIQTP.

Abstract
Brugada syndrome (BrS) is an "inherited" condition characterized by predisposition to syncope and cardiac arrest, predominantly during sleep. The prevalence is ∼1:2,000, and is more commonly diagnosed in young to middle-aged males, although patient sex does not appear to impact prognosis. Despite the perception of BrS being an inherited arrhythmia syndrome, most cases are not associated with a single causative gene variant. Electrocardiogram (ECG) findings support variable extent of depolarization and repolarization changes, with coved ST-segment elevation ≥2 mm and a negative T-wave in the right precordial leads. These ECG changes are often intermittent, and may be provoked by fever or sodium channel blocker challenge. Growing evidence from cardiac imaging, epicardial ablation, and pathology studies suggests the presence of an epicardial arrhythmic substrate within the right ventricular outflow tract. Risk stratification aims to identify those who are at increased risk of sudden cardiac death, with well-established factors being the presence of spontaneous ECG changes and a history of cardiac arrest or cardiogenic syncope. Current management involves conservative measures in asymptomatic patients, including fever management and drug avoidance. Symptomatic patients typically undergo implantable cardioverter defibrillator insertion, with quinidine and epicardial ablation used for patients with recurrent arrhythmia. This review summarizes our current understanding of BrS and provides clinicians with a practical approach to diagnosis and management.

Abstract
Four human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) lines have been generated from healthy control European donors, and validated. This resource represents a useful tool for stem cell-based research, as references for developmental studies and disease modeling linked to any type of human tissue and organ, in an ethnical-, sex- and age-matched context. They providea reliable in-vitro model for single cell- and tissue-based investigations, and are also a valuable tool for genome editing-based studies.

Abstract
Brugada syndrome (BrS) is a cardiac arrhythmia disorder associated with sudden death in young adults. With the exception of SCN5A, encoding the cardiac sodium channel NaV1.5, susceptibility genes remain largely unknown. Here we performed a genome-wide association meta-analysis comprising 2,820 unrelated cases with BrS and 10,001 controls, and identified 21 association signals at 12 loci (10 new). Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-heritability estimates indicate a strong polygenic influence. Polygenic risk score analyses based on the 21 susceptibility variants demonstrate varying cumulative contribution of common risk alleles among different patient subgroups, as well as genetic associations with cardiac electrical traits and disorders in the general population. The predominance of cardiac transcription factor loci indicates that transcriptional regulation is a key feature of BrS pathogenesis. Furthermore, functional studies conducted on MAPRE2, encoding the microtubule plus-end binding protein EB2, point to microtubule-related trafficking effects on NaV1.5 expression as a new underlying molecular mechanism. Taken together, these findings broaden our understanding of the genetic architecture of BrS and provide new insights into its molecular underpinnings.

Abstract
Background: Symptomatic children with catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) are at risk for recurrent arrhythmic events. Beta-blockers (BBs) decrease this risk, but studies comparing individual BBs in sizeable cohorts are lacking. We aimed to assess the association between risk for arrhythmic events and type of BB in a large cohort of symptomatic children with CPVT. Methods: From two international registries of patients with CPVT, RYR2 variant-carrying symptomatic children (defined as syncope or sudden cardiac arrest prior to BB initiation and age at start of BB therapy <18 years), treated with a BB were included. Cox-regression analyses with time-dependent covariates for BB and potential confounders were used to assess the hazard ratio (HR). The primary outcome was the first occurrence of sudden cardiac death, sudden cardiac arrest, appropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator shock, or syncope. The secondary outcome was the first occurrence of any of the primary outcomes except syncope. Results: We included 329 patients (median age at diagnosis 12 [interquartile range, 7-15] years, 35% females). Ninety-nine (30.1%) patients experienced the primary and 74 (22.5%) experienced the secondary outcome during a median follow-up of 6.7 [interquartile range, 2.8-12.5] years. Two-hundred sixteen patients (66.0%) used a non-selective BB (predominantly nadolol [n=140] or propranolol [n=70]) and 111 (33.7%) used a β1-selective BB (predominantly atenolol [n=51], metoprolol [n=33], or bisoprolol [n=19]) as initial BB. Baseline characteristics did not differ. The HR for both the primary and secondary outcomes were higher for β1-selective compared with non-selective BBs (HR, 2.04 95% CI, 1.31-3.17; and HR, 1.99; 95% CI, 1.20-3.30, respectively). When assessed separately, the HR for the primary outcome was higher for atenolol (HR, 2.68; 95% CI, 1.44-4.99), bisoprolol (HR, 3.24; 95% CI, 1.47-7.18), and metoprolol (HR, 2.18; 95% CI, 1.08-4.40) compared with nadolol, but did not differ from propranolol. The HR of the secondary outcome was only higher in atenolol compared with nadolol (HR, 2.68; 95% CI, 1.30-5.55). Conclusions: B1-selective BBs were associated with a significantly higher risk for arrhythmic events in symptomatic children with CPVT compared with non-selective BBs, specifically nadolol. Nadolol, or propranolol if nadolol is unavailable, should be the preferred BB for treating symptomatic children with CPVT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Mutations in KCNH2 cause long or short QT syndromes (LQTS or SQTS) predisposing to life-threatening arrhythmias. Over 1000 hERG variants have been described by clinicians, but most remain to be characterised. The objective is to standardise and accelerate the phenotyping process to contribute to clinician diagnosis and patient counselling. In silico evaluation was also included to characterise the structural impact of the variants. METHODS We selected 11 variants from known LQTS patients and two variants for which diagnosis was problematic. Using the Gibson assembly strategy, we efficiently introduced mutations in hERG cDNA despite GC-rich sequences. A pH-sensitive fluorescent tag was fused to hERG for efficient evaluation of channel trafficking. An optimised 35-s patch-clamp protocol was developed to evaluate hERG channel activity in transfected cells. R software was used to speed up analyses. RESULTS In the present work, we observed a good correlation between cell surface expression, assessed by the pH-sensitive tag, and current densities. Also, we showed that the new biophysical protocol allows a significant gain of time in recording ion channel properties and provides extensive information on WT and variant channel biophysical parameters, that can all be recapitulated in a single parameter defined herein as the repolarisation power. The impacts of the variants on channel structure were also reported where structural information was available. These three readouts (trafficking, repolarisation power and structural impact) define three pathogenicity indexes that may help clinical diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS Fast-track characterisation of KCNH2 genetic variants shows its relevance to discriminate mutants that affect hERG channel activity from variants with undetectable effects. It also helped the diagnosis of two new variants. This information is meant to fill a patient database, as a basis for personalised medicine. The next steps will be to further accelerate the process using an automated patch-clamp system.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Brugada syndrome (BrS) is associated with mutations in the cardiac sodium channel gene, SCN5A. However, genetic studies of patients with BrS with arrhythmic events have been limited. We sought to compare various clinical, ECG, and electrophysiological parameters according to SCN5A genotype in a large cohort of BrS probands with first arrhythmic event. METHODS Survey on Arrhythmic Events in Brugada Syndrome is a survey of 10 Western and 4 Asian countries, gathering 678 patients with BrS with first arrhythmic event. Only probands were included, and SCN5A genotype adjudicated. Patients without appropriate genetic data were excluded. Associations of genotype with clinical features were analyzed. RESULTS The study group comprised 392 probands: 92 (23.5%) SCN5A+(44 pathogenic/likely pathogenic [P/LP] and 48 variants of unknown significance) and 300 (76.5%) SCN5A-.SCN5A missense variants and the patients hosting them were similar regardless of adjudication. A higher proportion of patients with P/LP were pediatric (<16 years) compared with SCN5A- (11.4% versus 3%, P=0.023). The proportion of females was higher among patients with P/LP compared with SCN5A- (18.2% versus 6.3%, P=0.013). P/LP probands were more likely to have a family history of sudden cardiac death compared with SCN5A- (41.9% versus 16.8%, P<0.001). A higher proportion of patients with P/LP were White compared with SCN5A- (87.5% versus 47%, P<0.001). Ethnicity (odds ratio, 5.41 [2.8-11.19], P<0.001) and family history of sudden cardiac death (odds ratio, 2.73 [1.28-5.82], P=0.009) were independent variables associated with P/LP genotype following logistic regression. CONCLUSIONS The genetic basis of BrS has a complex relationship with gender, ethnicity, and age. Probands hosting a P/LP variant tended to experience their first arrhythmic event at a younger age and to have events triggered by fever compared with patients with SCN5A-. In addition, they were more likely to be White and to have family history of sudden cardiac death. Among females, a P/LP variant suggests an increased risk of being symptomatic. This association should be further studied on an ethnically specific basis in large prospectively collected international cohorts.

Abstract
AIMS In arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM), sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) typically displays a left bundle branch block (LBBB) morphology while a right bundle branch block (RBBB) morphology is rare. The present study assesses the VT morphology in ACM patients with sustained VT and their clinical and genetic characteristics. METHODS AND RESULTS Twenty-six centres from 11 European countries provided information on 954 ACM patients who had ≥1 episode of sustained VT spontaneously documented during patients' clinical course. Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy was defined according to the 2010 Task Force Criteria, and VT morphology according to the QRS pattern in V1. Overall, 882 (92.5%) patients displayed LBBB-VT alone and 72 (7.5%) RBBB-VT [alone in 42 (4.4%) or in combination with LBBB-VT in 30 (3.1%)]. Male sex prevalence was 79.3%, 88.1%, and 56.7% in the LBBB-VT, RBBB-VT, and LBBB + RBBB-VT groups, respectively (P = 0.007). First RBBB-VT occurred 5 years after the first LBBB-VT (46.5 ± 14.4 vs 41.1 ± 15.8 years, P = 0.011). An implanted cardioverter-defibrillator was more frequently implanted in the RBBB-VT (92.9%) and the LBBB + RBBB-VT groups (90%) than in the LBBB-VT group (68.1%) (P < 0.001). Mutations in PKP2 predominated in the LBBB-VT (65.2%) and the LBBB + RBBB-VT (41.7%) groups while DSP mutations predominated in the RBBB-VT group (45.5%). By multivariable analysis, female sex was associated with LBBB + RBBB-VT (P = 0.011) while DSP mutations were associated with RBBB-VT (P < 0.001). After a median follow-up of 103 (51-185) months, death occurred in 106 (11.1%) patients with no intergroup difference (P = 0.176). CONCLUSION RBBB-VT accounts for a significant proportion of sustained VTs in ACM. Sex and type of pathogenic mutations were associated with VT type, female sex with LBBB + RBBB-VT, and DSP mutation with RBBB-VT.

Abstract
Background Advances in paediatric cardiology have improved the prognosis of children with inherited cardiac disorders. However, health-related quality of life (QoL) and physical activity have been scarcely analysed in children with inherited cardiac arrhythmia or inherited cardiomyopathy. Moreover, current guidelines on the eligibility of young athletes with inherited cardiac disorders for sports participation mainly rely on expert opinions and remain controversial. Methods The QUALIMYORYTHM trial is a multicentre observational controlled study. The main objective is to compare the QoL of children aged 6 to 17 years old with inherited cardiac arrhythmia (long QT syndrome, Brugada syndrome, catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, or arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia), or inherited cardiomyopathy (hypertrophic, dilated, or restrictive cardiomyopathy), to that of age and gender-matched healthy subjects. The secondary objective is to assess their QoL according to the disease’s clinical and genetic characteristics, the level of physical activity and motivation for sports, the exercise capacity, and the socio-demographic data. Participants will wear a fitness tracker (ActiGraph GT3X accelerometer) for 2 weeks. A total of 214 children are required to observe a significant difference of 7 ± 15 points in the PedsQL, with a power of 90% and an alpha risk of 5%. Discussion After focusing on the survival in children with inherited cardiac disorders, current research is expanding to patient-reported outcomes and secondary prevention. The QUALIMYORYTHM trial intends to improve the level of evidence for future guidelines on sports eligibility in this population.

Abstract
This international multidisciplinary document intends to provide clinicians with evidence-based practical patient-centered recommendations for evaluating patients and decedents with (aborted) sudden cardiac arrest and their families. The document includes a framework for the investigation of the family allowing steps to be taken, should an inherited condition be found, to minimize further events in affected relatives. Integral to the process is counseling of the patients and families, not only because of the emotionally charged subject, but because finding (or not finding) the cause of the arrest may influence management of family members. The formation of multidisciplinary teams is essential to provide a complete service to the patients and their families, and the varied expertise of the writing committee was formulated to reflect this need. The document sections were divided up and drafted by the writing committee members according to their expertise. The recommendations represent the consensus opinion of the entire writing committee, graded by Class of Recommendation and Level of Evidence. The recommendations were opened for public comment and reviewed by the relevant scientific and clinical document committees of the Asia Pacific Heart Rhythm Society (APHRS) and the Heart Rhythm Society (HRS); the document underwent external review and endorsement by the partner and collaborating societies. While the recommendations are for optimal care, it is recognized that not all resources will be available to all clinicians. Nevertheless, this document articulates the evaluation that the clinician should aspire to provide for patients with sudden cardiac arrest, decedents with sudden unexplained death, and their families.
