Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) occurs when the insoluble fibrils formed by misfolded precursor
proteins deposit in cardiac tissues. The early clinical manifestations of CA are not evident …

Cardiac involvement from amyloidosis is of growing interest in the overall literature. Despite
cardiac amyloidosis (CA) has been considered for a long time a rare disease, the diagnostic …

Echocardiographic differentiation of cardiac amyloidosis (CA) and Fabry disease (FD) is
often challenging using standard echocardiographic parameters. We retrospectively …

Background Right atrial (RA) function strain is increasingly acknowledged as an important
predictor of adverse events in patients with diverse cardiovascular conditions. However, the …

Aims Cardiac amyloidosis is a diffuse disease affecting all cardiac chambers. The value of
right ventricular free-wall strain is uncertain as an echocardiographic red flag. We …

Left-to-right differences in the histopathologic patterns of transthyretin-derived amyloid
(ATTR) deposition in the atria of older adults have not yet been investigated. Hence, this …

Background Although right atrial (RA) myocardial deformation has important implications for
patient diagnosis, prognosis, and risk stratification, its implementation in clinical practice has …

Aims To assess the accuracy of measuring the right atrial volume (RAV) using two-
dimensional echocardiography (2DE) in a right ventricular focused (RVF) view compared to …

Cardiac amyloidosis is an infiltrative disease primarily caused by extracellular tissue
deposition of amyloid fibrils in the myocardial interstitium. The aim of the present review was …

Aims There are minimal data on the prognostic impact of right atrial strain during the
reservoir phase (RASr) in patients with immunoglobulin light‐chain (AL) cardiac …
