|
• right ventricular dysmorphism with a shift to the base, rounded apex, and misalignment relative to the left ventricle
|
|
• in 71% of heterozgyous adults
|
|
• distinct from heterozygotes with a proline substitution, these heterozygotes have decreased left ventrical mass
|
|
• distinct from heterozygotes with a proline substitution, these heterozygotes have decreased left ventricular stroke volume
|
|
• heterozygotes have a signficant decrease in right ventricle ejection fraction as well as a decrease in left ventricular stroke volume and end diastolic volume
|
|
• left ventricle shows decreased end diastolic volume, stroke volume, and heart mass
|
|
• under homeostatic nonanesthetized conditions there is increased PQ and QRS and a small tendency for decreased ST intervals, and occasional arrhythmic episodes were observed with highly irregular PR intervals
|
|
• wide variability in PR intervals in nonanesthetized electrocardiograms, with some showing increased PR
|
|
• wide variability in QRS intervals in nonanesthetized electrocardiograms, with some showing increased QRS
|
|
• small tendency for decreased ST interval

|
• heterozygotes have a signficant decrease in right ventricle ejection fraction as well as a decrease in left ventricular stroke volume and end diastolic volume
