Figure 4. Change in exercise following clinical presentation influences likelihood of developing a first sustained ventricular arrhythmia.

Among 61 cases who did not present clinically with a sustained ventricular arrhythmia, those who did the most (top quartile) exercise both prior to and after clinical presentation were most likely to develop a sustained ventricular arrhythmia in follow-up (p=0.007). Among those doing the most (top quartile) exercise prior to presentation, those who continued to do top quartile exercise were more likely to develop a first sustained ventricular arrhythmia than those who reduced exercise (p=0.04).
