Prevalence and Clinical Significance of Early Repolarization in Athletes: A Systematic Review.
Ann Noninvasive Electrocardiol

Department of Internal Medicine, College of Medicine, Prince Sattam Bin Abdulaziz University, Alkharj, Saudi Arabia.
Introduction: Early repolarization (ER) is an electrocardiographic pattern characterized by J-point and ST-segment elevation, frequently observed in athletes. Initially deemed benign, recent studies suggest a possible association between ER and increased risks of cardiac arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death, necessitating a thorough examination of its clinical implications in athletes.
Methods: A comprehensive literature review was conducted using MEDLINE (via PubMed) and EMBASE databases, focusing on articles related to ER in athletes.

Article Synopsis
- - Sudden cardiac arrest and death can affect athletes of all ages and competition levels, representing a significant and preventable public health issue globally.
- - There is uncertainty around the exact rates of these incidents due to insufficient reporting and lack of infrastructure, and disparities exist in outcomes between Black and White athletes.
- - Causes vary by age, with younger athletes often facing genetic heart issues while older athletes typically experience coronary artery disease; emergency action plans are crucial for effective cardiac care.
