Summary
This study looked at whether genetics play a role in how often people have extra heartbeats (called PACs and PVCs). Researchers used portable heart monitors to track 156 identical and fraternal twins. By comparing the two groups, they hope to understand if these common heart rhythm patterns are inherited.
