Cardiac amyloidosis: clinical characteristics, prognostic factors and treatment [PDF]
Cardiac amyloidosis occurs when misfolded protein fibrils are deposited in the extracellular space of the myocardium. The most common causes for cardiac amyloidosis are light chain (AL) amyloidosis and transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis.

A Generalizable Deep Learning System for Cardiac MRI [PDF]
Cardiac MRI allows for a comprehensive assessment of myocardial structure, function, and tissue characteristics. Here we describe a foundational vision system for cardiac MRI, capable of representing the breadth of human cardiovascular disease and health.

Peak oxygen consumption, VO2peak, was associated with short‐term 3‐months‐rehospitalization in heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Exercise oscillatory ventilation (EOV), representing fluctuations of pulmonary artery pressure, can be observed in heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction with and without left ...

BackgroundThe t(11;14)(q13;32) is a common chromosome translocation in multiple myeloma (MM), but its prognostic value remains controversial. Immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis is commonly secondary to multiple myeloma, which can rapidly cause heart ...

Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance in Cardiac Amyloidosis [PDF]
Background: Systemic amyloidoses are an underdiagnosed, but increasingly recognized group of progressive disorders characterised by the extracellular deposition of misfolded proteins in one or more organs.

A Descriptive Analysis of ATTR Amyloidosis in Spain from the Transthyretin Amyloidosis Outcomes Survey. [PDF]
Introduction Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR amyloidosis) is a clinically heterogeneous disease caused by mutations in the transthyretin (TTR) gene or aggregation of wild-type transthyretin (ATTRwt).

Nanobody interaction unveils structure, dynamics and proteotoxicity of the Finnish-type amyloidogenic gelsolin variant [PDF]
AGel amyloidosis, formerly known as familial amyloidosis of the Finnish-type, is caused by pathological aggregation of proteolytic fragments of plasma gelsolin. So far, four mutations in the gelsolin gene have been reported as responsible for the disease.

The prevalence and distribution of the amyloidogenic transthyretin (TTR) V122I allele in Africa [PDF]
Transthyretin (TTR) pV142I (rs76992529-A) is one of the 113 variants in the human TTR gene associated with systemic amyloidosis. It results from a G to A transition at a CG dinucleotide in the codon for amino acid 122 of the mature protein (TTR V122I ...

Biopsy Evidence of Sequential Transthyretin and Immunoglobulin Light-Chain Cardiac Amyloidosis in the Same Patient [PDF]
Currently adopted diagnostic flow charts consider transthyretin and light-chain cardiac amyloidosis as mutually exclusive. Here, we report for the first time, to our knowledge, the demonstration of a biopsy-proven dual pathology in an 80-year-old man ...
