Electrocardiograms (ECGs) in patients with Parkinson's disease are affected by artifacts related to muscle tremor. Malik et al . report methods used in QTc study in patients with Parkinson's disease that markedly reduce the noise and variance of QTc in a sample of ECGs that are undeniably difficult to interpret. This study adds significant experience and novel methods that have the potential to further enhance the evaluation of the effect of a drug on QTc. Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics (2009); 85 , 4, 365–366 doi: 10.1038/clpt.2008.153
