pubmed:abstractText |
Prolongation of the QT interval is associated with an increased risk of arrhythmia, coronary heart disease (CHD), and mortality. Estrogens and androgens have been proposed as a causal factor in QT lengthening. We tested whether postmenopausal hormone replacement therapy was associated with prolonged QT intervals in a healthy population sample of women (mean age=54).
