Correlations between PALS and other LA function parameters and LA diameter using Pearson’s correlation coefficient; a. PALS and LA-FS (r=0.538, P=0.001) b. PALS and LA-EF (r=0.797, P <0.001) c. PALS and FAC (r=0.746, P <0.001) d. PALS and LAD (r=-0.248, P =0.139) in the control (white) and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy groups (blue). PALS= peak atrial longitudinal strain; LA-FS= left atrial fractional shortening LA-EF= left atrial ejection fraction; FAC =left atrial fractional area change; LAD= left atrial diameter
