Cardiac Amyloid Deposits and Heart Dysfunction in Alzheimer's Disease
This study seeks to explore the possible common pathogenesis of both cardiac amyloidosis and Alzheimer's disease, which can both be associated with amyloid deposits. Using Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans with amyloid tracers - a conventional tool for non-invasively imaging amyloid deposits in Alzheimer's disease - the research will extend …
Cardiac Amyloidosis in HFpEF Tunisian Patients
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 …
Intracardiac Flow Assessment in Cardiac Amyloidosis
The primary objective of this study is to define the intracardiac flow imaging biomarkers in cardiac amyloidosis.
Quantitative-imaging in Cardiac Transthyretin Amyloidosis
Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), is a heart muscle disease that's stops the heart muscle working properly. With an ageing population, it is increasingly common but untreated, it has a poor prognosis. Several novel expensive treatments have become available, although we do not understand exactly how they work and why some …
Beta Amyloid PET Imaging for Alzheimer Disease With [18F]-Fluselenamyl
The purpose of this research study is to determine the safety of a radiotracer 18F-Fluselenamyl using positron emission tomography (PET) imaging.
Cardiac Amyloidosis Registry of University Hospital Leipzig
This is a clinical registry of patients with cardiac amyloidosis being treated at University Hospital Leipzig. The aim of the registry is to collect detailed information about clinical events, symptoms, imaging, biomarkers, comorbidities, and treatment from routine patient management which would not be provided by randomized clinical trails.
ATTR Cardiac Amyloidosis in a Selected Population
Patients operated for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) at Ålesund Hospital (200 patients) will have a biopsy to diagnose ATTR amyloidosis. Patients with positive biopsy will be examined to decide wether they have cardiac amyloidosis. All patients with positive biopsy will be followed closely for 10 years wit echocardiography an clinically.
Echocardiographic Characterization of Cardiac Amyloidosis: an Observational Study
This is a mono-center observational ambispective study in which patients with cardiac amyloidosis evaluated at our institution will be enrolled. The primary aim is to investigate echocardiographic findings, particularly using advanced echocardiographic techniques, such as two- and three-dimensional speckle-tracking analysis, that may be helpful in the differential diagnosis between cardiac …
Subclinical Transthyretin Cardiac Amyloidosis in V122I TTR Carriers
Approximately 1.5 million of the 44 million Blacks in the United States are carriers of the valine-to-isoleucine substitution at position 122 (V122I) in the transthyretin (TTR) protein. Virtually exclusive to Blacks, this is the most common cause of hereditary cardiac amyloidosis (hATTR-CA) worldwide. hATTR-CA leads to worsening heart failure (HF) …
Screening for AL Amyloidosis in Smoldering Multiple Myeloma
In this multicenter study, we will recruit 400 patients 40 years of age or older at 15 centers with a diagnosis of smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM), a group of patients for whom standard of care is observation not treatment. The main goal of this study is to screen for the …
