DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.12308
Abstract: Wild‐type transthyretin (ATTRwt) cardiac amyloidosis has emerged as an important cause of heart failure in the elderly. Atrial fibrillation (AF) commonly affects older adults with heart failure and is associated with reduced survival, but its… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.13847
Abstract: It has been reported that a staging system combining N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide and high‐sensitivity troponin T (hs‐cTnT) or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is useful in patients with wild‐type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt‐CM). However,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.13884
Abstract: Wild‐type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt CM) is a more common disease than previously thought. Awareness of ATTRwt CM and its diagnosis has been challenged by its unspecific and widely distributed clinical manifestations and traditionally invasive… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ejhf.2823
Abstract: BACKGROUND Epidemiology of wild-type transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTRwt-CA) remains poorly defined. A better characterization of pathways leading to ATTRwt-CA diagnosis is of key importance, and potentially informative of disease course and prognosis. OBJECTIVES To describe… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/s0735-1097(20)31439-x
Abstract: We determined the progression of LV thickness and its association with ECG, biomarkers and symptoms in untreated wild-type transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA wt). Measurements were made on 2 echocardiograms, at least 18 months apart, before… read more here.

DOI: 10.2217/fca-2021-0122
Abstract: Aim: Wild-type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt-CM) is frequently misdiagnosed, and delayed diagnosis is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. At three large academic medical centers, combinations of phenotypic features were implemented in electronic health record… read more here.
