Figure 1 Gender and trigger-specific risk for cardiac events in LQT1. Kaplan–Meier cumulative probability of (A) exercise-triggered events, (B) arousal-triggered events, and (C) sleep/rest-triggered events by gender. LQT1 = long-QT syndrome type 1.

Figure 2 Mutation location and trigger-specific risk for cardiac events in LQT1. Kaplan–Meier cumulative probability of (A) exercise-triggered events, (B) arousal-triggered events, and (C) sleep/rest-triggered events by mutation location and type. C/N = C/N terminus; C-loops = cytoplasmic loops; LQT1 = long-QT syndrome type 1.

Figure 3 Cumulative probability of trigger-specific first and recurrent cardiac events in LQT1. Kaplan–Meier cumulative probabilities of first and recurrent cardiac events of the same type: exercise-triggered events (A), arousal-triggered events (B), and sleep/rest-triggered events (C). For the assessment of the rate of recurrent events, follow-up is restarted at the time for the first event. LQT1 = long-QT syndrome type 1.
