2015, Chemico-Biological InteractionsCitation Excerpt :QT prolongation during the first 2–3 weeks was also reported in humans accidently exposed to OP pesticides [35,39]. However, QT prolongation did not correlate with cardiac and respiratory failure leading to death [38,39]. The absence of QT prolongation in the minipig may reflect a difference in species or a difference in exposure paradigm.
