QT-Interval Prolongation, Torsades de Pointes, and Heart Failure With EGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Systematic Review - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38553324/
A systematic literature review was conducted to determine the incidence and mortality of QT-interval prolongation (QTp), torsades de pointes (TdP), and heart failure (HF) in patients with non-small cell lung...
A systematic review found QT-interval prolongation, torsades de pointes, and heart failure incidences in NSCLC patients on EGFR TKIs, with low incidence and mortality rates, highlighting the need for standardized monitoring.

"Ion-Flux": The natural course of ECG changes in severe hypokalemia - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37865301/
Whereas the electrocardiogram (ECG) changes in hypokalemia are well known, they often receive less attention than the more striking features of hyperkalemia. Furthermore, there is a need for further discussion...
This case study reviews ECG changes in severe hypokalemia from diarrhea, focusing on distinguishing bifid T-waves from coronary artery disease or pericarditis and observing ECG normalization with potassium correction.
