Résumé

Myocardial deformation assessed by strain analysis represents a significant advancement in our assessment of cardiac mechanics. However, whether this variable is genetically heritable or whether all/most of its variability is related to environmental factors is currently unknown.We sought to determine the heritability of echocardiographically determined cardiac mechanics indices in a population setting.
