"Furthermore, the loss of function SCN5A mutation impedes phase 0 entrance of sodium into cardiomyocytes (depolarization) and phase 2 efflux of sodium (plateau) - it is this gradient that allows calcium to enter the cell via the sodium/calcium exchanger, but the lack of calcium influx would lead to weakened contractility [XREF_BIBR]."
