Zusammenfassung:Background Left Ventricular Global Longitudinal Strain (LV-GLS) with speckle-tracking echocardiography carries incremental prognostic value to traditional cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF) and standard echocardiography. Defining myocardial strain patterns in Hispanics/Latinos is a critical step towards adequate CV health assessment of the US population
