(10) Multivariate Cox's hazard function analysis on 18 variables, including age, type of infarction, Lown and Killip class, ejection fraction, and medications, showed that the presence of ST changes on Holter monitoring was a significant predictive variable for one-year mortality in the overall study population and particularly in the subgroup of 59 patients who could not undergo early exercise treadmill testing.
(11) Ventricular extra systoles were recorded in 31 patients (65.9%), 70.97% being from class III-V according to Lown.
(12) According to the long-term ECG recordings 22 patients were classified as Lown IV.
(13) Ventricular couplets or triplets (Lown grade IV) were found in less than 10% in patients in age from 15 to 17 years, 33% in patients from 18 to 20 years and showed no increase with age.
(14) In order to evaluate the effects of propafenone (an antiarrhythmic class 1 c agent) acutely administered intravenously on left ventricular function, 10 patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), affected by arrhythmias (greater than or equal to Lown class III), belonging to Killip class I and II, and with normal serum electrolyte levels, were studied 2-4 days after an acute episode.
(15) Thus the short PR wide QRS syndrome is not always a result of the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome but can also be seen in the Lown-Ganong-Levine syndrome coexisting with bundle-branch block.
(16) In 6 patients with normal resting electrocardiogram, AEM revealed: first degree A-V block (4 cases), class IVa Lown ventricular arrhythmias (3 cases) and episodes of atrial fibrillation (4 cases).

(18) The Lown's type 3 ventricular beats had a 50% reduction.
