Outcomes in athletes with marked ECG repolarization abnormalities.
Pelliccia A, Di Paolo FM, Quattrini FM, Basso C, Culasso F, Popoli G, De Luca R, Spataro A, Biffi A, Thiene G, Maron BJ. Pelliccia A, et al. Among authors: di paolo fm. N Engl J Med. 2008 Jan 10;358(2):152-61. doi: 10.1056/NEJMoa060781. N Engl J Med. 2008. PMID: 18184960 Free article.
Whether such ECG patterns represent the initial expression of underlying cardiac disease with potential long-term adverse consequences remains unresolved. We assessed long-term clinical outcomes in athletes with ECGs characterized by marked repolarization abnormalit …

The "Athlete's Heart": relation to gender and race.
Di Paolo FM, Pelliccia A. Di Paolo FM, et al. Cardiol Clin. 2007 Aug;25(3):383-9, v. doi: 10.1016/j.ccl.2007.06.010. Cardiol Clin. 2007. PMID: 17961792 Review.
Long-term athletic training is associated with changes in cardiac morphology, commonly described as "athlete's heart." Although numerous studies have investigated the effects of training on cardiac dimensions, most are limited to male Caucasian athletes, and few data are a …
