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.
