Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Impaired left atrial (LA) function is an early marker of cardiac dysfunction and predictor of adverse cardiac events. Herein, we assess LA structure and function in hypertrophy in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) sarcomere mutation carriers with and without left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). METHOD: Seventy-three participants of the HCMNet study who underwent cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR)...
