Effect of particulate matter 2.5 on QT dispersion in patients with chronic respiratory disease

Abstract PM2.5 air pollutants increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias. The prolonged corrected QT interval (QTc) and QT dispersion (QTd) is common in patients with chronic airway disease and is associated with heightened risk of ventricular tachyarrhythmia. We sought to examine the effect of PM2.5...
