ABSTRACT Background The F64L variant is among the most frequent TTR mutations in Italy, typically associated with a predominantly neurologic phenotype and limited cardiac involvement. Methods Data from 181 ATTRv patients in the multicenter Patisiranitaly database treated with Patisiran since 2020 were analyzed. Neurologic impairment scores, Norfolk QoL‐

ABSTRACT Background Thyroid disease is reported in orangutans, but to properly diagnose and manage these disorders, reference intervals for circulating thyroid hormones are needed. Methods Commercial immunoassay kits for total thyroxine (TT4) and free thyroxine (FT4) were validated for use in orangutans (Pongo spp.).

ABSTRACT Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a prevalent and disabling complication of diabetes, yet whether established clinical DPN is reversible remains debated. At the 35th Annual Meeting of NEUROdiab, a formal debate examined arguments ‘for’ and ‘against’ the proposition that clinical DPN can be reversed.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Hereditary transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRv) is a multisystemic disease where early neuropathy signs are challenging to detect conventionally. This study aimed to evaluate hand motor performance in ATTRv using the Hand Test System (HTS) across disease stages and examine correlations with standard measures.

The pathophysiology of variant transthyretin (TTR) amyloidosis (ATTRv) is associated with destabilizing mutations in the TTR tetramer. However, why TTR with a wild-type genetic sequence misfolds and aggregates in wild-type transthyretin amyloidosis ...

Patient characteristics for men and women with transthyretin amyloidosis.
Type A, mixture of intact and fragmented transthyretin; Type B, only full length transthyretin. Continuous data are presented as median (range) and categorical data are presented as counts and percentages. Statistically significant differences are marked

Safety and efficacy of RNAi therapy for transthyretin amyloidosis
BACKGROUND: Transthyretin amyloidosis is caused by the deposition of hepatocyte-derived transthyretin amyloid in peripheral nerves and the heart. A therapeutic approach mediated by RNA interference (RNAi) could reduce the production of transthyretin ...
