It is unclear if these racial disparities are the result of genetic differences, differences in the access to care, or differences in the environment. SCD has also been linked to cigarette smoking, obesity, and significant psychological stress [23,31–34]. Trends over time Over the past several decades, there has been a clear decrease in the incidence of ventricular arrhythmias causing SCD [35–37]. Data from the Framingham Study reveal that the age-adjusted risk of SCD has decreased by 49% during 1990–1999 as compared to the years 1950–1969 [35].

RVOT) or repetitive runs of VT [43,46]. Reentry requires (1) two or more potential pathways of activation; (2) unidirectional conduction block in one (or more); (3) slow conduction to allow the initial site of block time to recover and be re-excited to complete a reentrant circuit. Unidirectional conduction block may occur after a properly timed extra-beat or enhanced sinus rate, and is probably functional rather than fixed in most instances [47,48]. However, regions of conduction block can be anatomically fixed such that they are present during tachycardia and sinus rhythm; dense, non-excitable fibrosis or valve annuli create these types of anatomic boundaries for reentry [49].

Coronary artery anomalies with an abnormal origin in the sinus of Valsalva are found in 17% of the patients, and myocarditis and ARVC are found in 6% and 4%, respectively [88]. Differentiation of HCM from the so-called athlete’s heart is not an easy task [89,90]. This issue is to some extent speculative and it is beyond the scope of this review to further elaborate on this matter. When simple genetic diagnostic tests would be readily available, it would be possible to not only delineate the boundaries of the athlete’s heart but also establish which benign varieties of HCM might be allowed for competitive sports practice at no risk of SCD on the pitch.
