Abstract figure legend Schematic illustration of the bidirectional causative link between cerebral amyloid‐beta (Aβ) angiopathy and cardiovascular disease in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Common cardiovascular risk factors like microvascular thrombosis, diabetes, atrial fibrillation, hypertension and atherosclerosis lead to cerebral hypoperfusion and ...

Extracellular volume quantification by dynamic equilibrium cardiac computed tomography in cardiac amyloidosis. [PDF]
Cardiac involvement determines outcome in patients with systemic amyloidosis. There is major unmet need for quantification of cardiac amyloid burden, which is currently only met in part through semi-quantitative bone scintigraphy or Cardiovascular ...

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.

A case report in cardiovascular magnetic resonance: the contrast agent matters in amyloid [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Cardiac amyloidosis is a progressive but underdiagnosed and underappreciated cause of heart failure. In the last few years, cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has become the gold standard for non invasive diagnosis of cardiac ...

A possible role for miRNA silencing in disease phenotype variation in Swedish transthyretin V30M carriers [PDF]
Our results are the first to show the presence of a 3'UTR polymorphism on the V30M haplotype in Swedish carriers, which can serve as a miRNA binding site potentially leading to down-regulated expression from the mutated TTR allele.

Treatment With Tafamidis Slows Disease Progression in Early-Stage Transthyretin Cardiomyopathy
Background: Transthyretin cardiomyopathy (TTR-CM) is a progressive, fatal disease caused by the accumulation of misfolded transthyretin (TTR) amyloid fibrils in the heart.

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 ...

Introduction Hereditary amyloidodis is a rare disease process with a propensity to cause polyneuropathies, autonomic dysfunction, and restrictive cardiomyopathy. It is transmitted in an autosomal dominant manner, with disease onset usually in the 20s-40s.
