Primary (AL) Amyloidosis Following COVID‐19 Infection: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Primary (AL) amyloidosis is a rare systemic disorder caused by extracellular deposition of monoclonal immunoglobulin light chains, resulting in multi‐organ dysfunction. SARS‐CoV‐2 infection may induce persistent inflammatory and immune dysregulation, potentially promoting amyloid formation, although clinical evidence is limited, making the ...

ABSTRACT Sudden death resulting from abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) rupture is a highly fatal cardiovascular condition. There remains an urgent need to identify innovative therapeutic strategies capable of decelerating AAA progression and rupture. Although polydatin (PLD) has been consistently shown to exert potent anti‐inflammatory effects in diverse
