CONCLUSION
In this study, we demonstrated that the progress of DM was associated with arrhythmogenesis during reperfusion but not ischemia. The link between development of DM-related disturbances and VT/VF inducibility was a DM duration-dependent prolongation of repolarization duration, which was a common predictor for ischemia and reperfusion arrhythmias. The presence of other, independent of DM, electrophysiological predictors for ischemic VT/VFs made them unrelated to DM progress.
