The potential association between common comorbidities and severity and mortality of coronavirus disease 2019: A pooled analysis.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Brugada syndrome (BrS) is associated with sudden cardiac death (SCD). Although implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) implantation is recommended, the long-term outcomes and follow-up data with regard to ICD complications have led to controversy. HYPOTHESIS:In the present study, we described the data ...
