Previous studies have showed that QT interval dispersion changes during episodes of myocardial ischemia. Slow coronary flow (SCF) in epicardial coronary arteries is a rare and unique angiographic finding. Whether this pattern of flow is associated with electrocardiographic abnormalities is unknown. Therefore, this study was designed to investigate whether SCF results in electrocardiographic (ECG) changes compared to normal coronary flow. For this aim 24 patients with angiographically proven SCF who had no obstructive coronary lesion (group I) and 25 patients without coronary artery disease (group II) were included in the study. Both groups underwent a routine standard 12-lead surface electrocardiogram recorded at 50 mm\/s during rest. QT dispersion (QTd), corrected QT (QTc), and corrected QT dispersion (QTcd) were calculated. Distributions of sex, age, body mass index (BMI), and cardiac risk factors were similar in the 2 groups. Mean heart rate was similar in the 2 groups (74 \u00b18 vs 77 \u00b1 7 p &gt; 0.05). Mean QRS interval durations were similar in the groups (92 \u00b17 vs 90 \u00b16 ms p &gt; 0.005). In group I, QTd, QTcd, and QTc, were significantly higher than in group II (QTd: 73 \u00b114 vs 40 \u00b114; QTcd: 71 \u00b115 vs 42 \u00b19; QTc: 414 \u00b114 vs 388 \u00b113, respectively p &lt;0.05). In conclusion, SCF was found to be associated with prolonged QT interval and increased QT dispersion. Ischemia in microvascular level and\/or altered autonomic regulation of the heart may be responsible mechanisms.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0003319707302486","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,7,12]],"date-time":"2007-07-12T21:01:01Z","timestamp":1184274061000},"page":"289-294","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Effect
