Filter by:Descriptive cross-sectional study on 100 consecutive ATTRwt-CM patients reflecting all NAC stages aiming primarily to investigate ATTRwt-CM patient's quality of life (QoL) measures and their relation to ATTRwt-CM severity. Secondarily aiming to investigate the possibility to measure misTTR and fragTTR in plasma and urine and to detect fragTTR in endomyocardial biopsies from ATTRwt-CM patients. To investigate whether misTTR and fragTTR levels are correlated with ATTRwt-CM severity.
The aim of this study is to investigate the association between increased lifetime physical activity and the development of wild-type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy.
This study will test a medicine, NNC6019-0001, for people who have a heart disease due to TTR amyloidosis. It will look at how safe this medicine is in the long term and if it can reduce symptoms of a heart disease due to TTR amyloidosis, such as heart failure. It is an extension to a study called "A research study to look at how a new medicine called NNC6019-0001 works and how safe it is for people who have a heart disease due to TTR amyloidosis". Only participants who have completed that study will be invited for this new study. Participants will get NNC6019-0001, regardless of whether they got placebo or NNC6019-0001 in the first study. The study will last for up to 157 weeks (36 months/3 years).
Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) is a commonly undiagnosed and potentially fatal disease. Contemporary studies on this condition often underrepresent the female gender and diverse patient populations. This registry retrospectively evaluated patients referred for 99mTc-pyrophosphate (PYP) Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) between 2014 and 2023 at Montefiore-Einstein in the Bronx. The patient population is racially and ethnically diverse and with a high proportion of females. Demographic, clinical (e.g. comorbidities), laboratory, echocardiographic, hospitalization, and mortality data were collected for each patient.
All ATTRwt patients on tafamidis 61 mg treatment will be clinically evaluated before treatment initiation and subsequently every six months for the eligibility to continue tafamidis treatment, according to Italian Medicines Agency regulations. C onsidering the significant risk of developing heart rhythm disturbances due to cardiac amyloidosis, especially in transthyretin form (ATTRwt), in routine clinical practice a stricter heart rhythm monitoring is recommended in ATTRwt patients. Moreover, particular attention is usually paid for those who present atrio-ventricular and/or intraventricular block at the baseline electrocardiogram. Data about rhythm disturbances and diuretic dose need will be collected during the planned physical examination every six months and the Holter ECG monitoring requested by the physician at the end of every planned clinical evaluation.
Detection and classification of different renal and urinary affection in patients with IBD that attended to Assist University Hospitals
A prospective patients' registry collecting all new cases of AL amyloidosis evaluated at referral Centers from across Europe and a sample sharing network will be created to study mechanisms of the disease through the use of advanced molecular technologies and big data analysis tools.
Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) has recently been reported as a common cause of heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (HFpEF), with a prevalence of 6% in elderly HFpEF patients. However, the diagnosis of CA is still challenging and requires multiple costly investigations. Regardless of the type of CA, TTR or AL, early diagnosis significantly improves prognosis. In this study, the investigators aimed to determine the prevalence of CA in Tunisian HFpEF patients and to identify clinical and ultrasound criteria predictive of CA.
Demonstrate the beneficial impact of three targeted Shiatsu sessions versus "comfort" Shiatsu on symptoms in cardiac amyloidosis patients with severe symptoms. To demonstrate the beneficial short-term impact of a targeted SHIATSU session on neuro-cardio-vascular physiological parameters and symptoms in patients with cardiac amyloidosis compared with comfort Shiatsu and no Shiatsu. To demonstrate the beneficial impact of three targeted Shiatsu sessions versus "comfort" Shiatsu and no Shiatsu on symptoms (fatigue, sleep, pain, anxiety, depression dyspnea, digestive disorders, nausea) and quality of life in cardiac amyloidosis patients with severe symptoms. Evaluate patient satisfaction with shiatsu. Assess tolerance to shiatsu.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of eplontersen compared to placebo on the reduction of serum TTR concentration and long-term safety in Chinese participants with hereditary or wild-type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy.
