Differences in the characteristics and contemporary cardiac outcomes of patients with light-chain versus transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis.
<h4>Aims</h4>To compare the baseline cardiovascular characteristics of immunoglobulin light-chain (AL) and amyloid transthyretin (ATTR) cardiac amyloidosis (CA) and to investigate patients' contemporary cardiac outcomes.<h4>Methods</h4>Single-center analysis of clinical,...

Patients with ATTR-CA versus AL-CA were older (80 (IQR 70, 85) years versus 65 (IQR 60, 71) years, respectively, p<0.001) with male predominance (p = 0.038).

By echocardiography, patients with ATTR-CA versus AL-CA had a trend to worse left ventricular (LV) ejection function (50 (IQR 40, 55)% versus 60 (IQR 45, 60)%, respectively, p = 0.051), yet comparable LV diastolic function. By CMRi, left atrial area (31 (IQR 27, 36)cm2 vs. 27 (IQR 23, 30)cm2, respectively, p = 0.015) and LV mass index (109 (IQR 96, 130)grams/m2 vs. 82 (IQR 72, 98)grams/m2, respectively, p = 0.011) were increased in patients with ATTR-CA versus AL-CA.
