Background The prognostic value of early repolarization pattern (ERP) remains controversial. We aim to test the hypothesis that temporal changes in ERP are associated with increased risks for sudden cardiac death (SCD) and cardiovascular death. Methods and Results A total of 14 679 middle-aged parti...
