Real‐world characteristics and treatment of cardiac transthyretin amyloidosis: A multicentre, observational study

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1203-1216, April 2025.
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 ...

Myocardial Immunocompetent Cells and Macrophage Phenotypes as Histopathological Surrogates for Diagnosis of Cardiac Sarcoidosis in Japanese

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2016
BackgroundThe histological diagnosis of cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) is based on the presence of myocardial granulomas; however, the sensitivity of endomyocardial biopsy is relatively low.

Cardiovascular toxicity from immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy: an inflammatory continuum

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy has markedly improved outcomes in advanced malignancies but has also revealed a distinct spectrum of cardiovascular immune‐related adverse events. Myocarditis represents the most severe manifestation, while non‐inflammatory left ventricular dysfunction and vascular inflammation have emerged as additional ...

Refining the treatment of immune checkpoint inhibitor–associated myocarditis: Challenges, innovations and rechallenge considerations

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)‐associated myocarditis has emerged as a severe and clinically complex immune‐related toxicity that poses significant challenges for therapeutic decision‐making in routine cardio‐oncological care. High‐dose corticosteroids remain the first‐line therapy, yet their timing, dosage and tapering require careful clinical ...
