[Characteristics of arrhythmia and late ventricular potentials in patients with cardiological syndrome X].

Aim: A comparative study of late ventricular potentials (LVP) in patients with cardiological syndrome X (SX) and stenotic atherosclerosis of coronary arteries (ACA) as well as their relations with arrhythmia, cardiac contractility, lipid metabolism and morphological characteristics of the myocardium.

Material And Methods: The examination of 52 SX and 77 ACA patients as well as 17 healthy subjects included coronaroventriculography, bicycle exercise, 24-h ECG monitoring, echocardiography, signal-averaged high-resolution (SAHR) ECG, investigation of blood lipoproteins. Endomyocardial biopsy was made in 5 ACA and 5 SX patients.
