Conclusions

LV longitudinal function is associated with MACE, independent of and incremental to clinical parameters and LVMI in HHD. Deterioration in strain was more strongly associated with MACE than were LVH and LV circumferential function, reflecting a higher susceptibility to chronic HTN and higher sensitivity to MACE of GLS. A multiparametric risk score including GLS may lead to better appreciation of a risk of MACE in HHD.
