HLA-B27 in patients with a permanent pacemaker

Some, though not all studies, suggest an association between the presence of SpA and/or HLA-B27 and the occurrence of cardiac conduction disorders. 3- 7 This study aimed at determining the prevalence of SpA in a group of patients with a permanent pacemaker, and discovering whether these patients wer...

Zusammenfassung:Some, though not all studies, suggest an association between the presence of SpA and/or HLA-B27 and the occurrence of cardiac conduction disorders. 3- 7 This study aimed at determining the prevalence of SpA in a group of patients with a permanent pacemaker, and discovering whether these patients were more likely to be HLA-B27 positive than a group of controls.
