Familial Pseudo‐Wolff‐Parkinson‐White Syndrome
Bibliographic record
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: PRKAG2 plays a role in regulating metabolic pathways, and mutations in this gene are associated with familial ventricular preexcitation, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and atrioventricular conduction disturbances. Clinico-pathologic and experimental data suggest the hypothesis of a glycogen storage disease. OBJECTIVE: To report a unique pattern of clinical features observed in individuals with a mutant PRKAG2 from two unrelated families. METHODS AND RESULTS: We studied two large families and found a total of 20 affected individuals showing a combination of sinus bradycardia, short PR interval, RBBB, intra and infrahisian conduction disturbances often requiring a pacemaker, and atrial tachyarrhythmias. Three individuals died suddenly at a young age. No patient had the Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome, and only two patients (10%) had myocardial hypertrophy. We performed screening of the exons and exon-intron boundaries of PRKAG2. Genetic analysis revealed a missense mutation (Arg302Gln) in the affected individuals from both families. This mutation had been described before and has been associated with the familial form of the WPW syndrome and with a high prevalence of left ventricular hypertrophy. CONCLUSION: PRKAG2 mutations are responsible for a diverse phenotype and not only the familial form of the WPW syndrome. Familial occurrence of right bundle branch block, sinus bradycardia, and short PR interval should raise suspicion of a mutant PRKAG2 gene.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
