Assessment of myocardial work in sarcomere gene mutation carriers, healthy controls and overt nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
We show for the first time that MW indexes were significantly worse in sarcomere mutation carriers compared to controls, suggesting that MW is more sensitive to early changes than GLS and could have a significant role in the evaluation and follow-up of carriers.
