📝 摘要
Individuals of African ancestry are underrepresented in genetic studies, contributing to disproportionately higher rates of variants of uncertain significance (VUS) and fewer actionable results in genetic testing for cardiomyopathies and arrhythmias. We aimed to determine whether ancestry-enriched VUS confer measurable cardiovascular risk among individuals of African ancestry.
