Abstract Aims Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR‐CM) is an increasinglyrecognized cause of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), which may be diagnosed non‐invasively using 99mTc 3,3‐diphosphono‐1,2‐propanodicarboxylic acid (DPD) scintigraphy‐based diagnostic criteria.

A Rare Case: Primary Pulmonary Amyloidosis
Amyloidosis is a rare disorder characterized by the extracellular deposition of insoluble protein aggregates. There are two common types of amyloidosis: Amyloid A (AA) and amyloid light chain (AL).

The 366 patients diagnosed with transthyretin amyloidosis cardiomyopathy (ATTR‐CM) were analyzed regarding their clinical characteristics in the first year after approval of tafamidis 61 mg for ATTR‐CM in Germany. Nearly two‐thirds of the patients were in an advanced disease stage and 64% met the key criteria of the “Transthyretin Amyloidosis ...

Chronic Brucella infection associated with amyloid light chain cardiac amyloidosis: a case report
BackgroundAmyloidosis is a rare group of diseases characterized by extracellular deposition of amyloid fibrils. The most common types are amyloid light chain (AL) and transthyretin (ATTR), while serum amyloid A (AA) type is relatively rare.

Epidemiology of hospitalized heart failure in France based on national data over 10 years, 2012–2022
Abstract Aims We aim to describe the incidence of HF hospitalization in France in the post‐pandemic era, the prevalence of HF cases and patients' characteristics, management and outcomes while focusing on sex, age and socio‐economic differences and to analyse time‐trends between 2012 and 2022.

A phenomap of TTR amyloidosis to aid diagnostic screening
Abstract Cardiac amyloidosis due to transthyretin (ATTR) remains an underdiagnosed cause of cardiomyopathy. As awareness of the disease grows and referrals for ATTR increase, clinicians are likely to encounter more atypical forms of the condition in clinical practice.

A case report of hereditary apolipoprotein A-I amyloidosis associated with a novel APOA1 mutation and variable phenotype [PDF]
Apolipoprotein A-I (apo A-I) amyloidosis is a non-AL, non-AA, and non-transthyretin type of amyloidosis associated with mutations in the APOA1 gene inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. It is a form of systemic amyloidosis, but at presentation, can

Abstract Aims Amyloid cardiomyopathy is caused by the deposition of light chain (AL) or transthyretin amyloid (ATTR) fibrils, that leads to a restrictive cardiomyopathy, often resulting in heart failure (HF) with preserved or reduced ejection fraction.
