Real‐world long‐term treatment with the first‐generation TTR silencers, patisiran and inotersen, in patients with ATTRv‐PN is safe, consistently reducing serum TTR levels, stabilizing neurologic symptoms, cardiac and renal functions, and nutritional parameters.

Euglycemic Ketoacidosis Induced by Dapagliflozin in a Non‐Diabetic Patient With Cardiac Amyloidosis
ABSTRACT Dapagliflozin, though beneficial in heart failure, can rarely cause euglycemic ketoacidosis even in non‐diabetic patients. Clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion for metabolic acidosis in patients on SGLT2 inhibitors presenting with unexplained illness, regardless of blood glucose level.

Small molecule probes of protein aggregation [PDF]
Understanding the mechanisms of amyloid formation and toxicity remain major challenges. Whilst substantial progress has been made in the development of methods able to identify the species formed during self-assembly and to describe the kinetic ...

Tafamidis for transthyretin familial amyloid polyneuropathy [PDF]
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of 18 months of tafamidis treatment in patients with early-stage V30M transthyretin familial amyloid polyneuropathy (TTR-FAP).In this randomized, double-blind trial, patients received tafamidis 20 mg QD or placebo. Coprimary endpoints were the Neuropathy Impairment Score-Lower Limbs (NIS-LL) responder analysis (

Central nervous system involvement in cardiac amyloidosis: Redefining the heart‐brain axis
Central nervous system involvement in cardiac amyloidosis. Amyloidosis is a systemic disease that can directly affect the central nervous system. Furthermore, the amyloid cardiomyopathy can indirectly affect the central nervous system by inducing systemic hypoperfusion and increasing the risk of acute ischaemic stroke.
