Answer: Mayra should checked regularly for heart-related problems.

Step-by-step explanation:

The disease like hypertention may be passed on from parents to offsprings.

As it is mentioned that the disease is being related with the maternal lineage of Mayra. Therefore, it may be inherited by Mayra. Therefore, she should make a check for heart related issues regularly.
