Cardiac biomarkers are prognostic in systemic light chain amyloidosis with no cardiac involvement by standard criteria

Haematologica, 2020
Patients with systemic immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis (AL) with no evidence of cardiac involvement by consensus criteria have excellent survival, but 20% will die within 5 years of diagnosis and prognostic factors remain poorly characterised.
