Background: Cardiac amyloidosis is a fatal disease of severe heart failure caused by the accumulation of amyloid in the myocardium. This disease is often advanced by the time cardiac symptoms appear; therefore, early detection and treatment are critical ...

Enteric neuropathy and the vagus nerve: Therapeutic implications
Abstract Enteric neuropathies are characterized by abnormalities of gut innervation, which includes the enteric nervous system, inducing severe gut dysmotility among other dysfunctions. Most of the gastrointestinal tract is innervated by the vagus nerve, the efferent branches of which have close interconnections with the enteric nervous system and ...

Abstract Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common hereditary condition affecting approximately 1 in 500 adults. It is characterized by marked clinical heterogeneity with individuals experiencing minimal to no symptoms, while others may have more severe outcomes including heart failure and sudden cardiac death.

ABSTRACT Localized light chain amyloidosis (loc‐AL) is a rare disorder characterized by localized deposition of misfolded AL fibrils. There are limited data on patterns of disease presentation and long‐term outcomes. In this study, we retrospectively reviewed 146 patients with loc‐AL at our institution between January 1, 2010, and March 1, 2024.

Estimation of Cardiac and Non-cardiac Diagnosis from Electrocardiogram Features [PDF]
Introduction: Ensuring timely and accurate diagnosis of medical conditions is paramount for effective patient care. Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals are fundamental for evaluating a patient's cardiac health and are readily available. Despite this, little attention has been given to the remarkable potential of ECG data in detecting non-cardiac conditions.

In this report, we demonstrate that spinal stenosis is associated with amyloid deposits in the spine. We further demonstrate that amyloid deposits are present not only in the ligamentum flavum but also in the disc tissue. We subsequently examined patients for transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy and found no evidence in patients tested.
