Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the ECG characteristics of 103 acromegaly patients to assess the risk of cardiovascular complications and life expectancy, highlighting the significance of the Tp-e interval and its ratios as indicators of ventricular arrhythmia risk.
- - Results show that patients with both baseline and current ECGs experienced a decrease in heart rate, QRS duration, and several arrhythmia parameters, which were similarly affected regardless of whether the patients were in active or remission stages of the disease.
- - The conclusion emphasizes that treatment leads to improved ventricular arrhythmia parameters in acromegaly patients, which correlates with a significant reduction in IGF-1 levels, even in those with ongoing active disease.
