Paraproteinemia ‐associated neuropathy with or without anti‐myelin‐associated glycoprotein antibody
AbstractParaproteinemia-associated neuropathy (PAN) develops with paraproteinemia and is mainly caused by the monoclonal proliferation of mature B cells, especially monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS). PAN tends to increase with age, and in a super-aging society, its frequency is expected to increase. Among paraproteinemias, the immunoglobulin (Ig)G type is most common, but the frequency of PAN is reported to be higher for the IgM type. IgG/IgA-type PAN includes MGUS, plasma cell myeloma, and polyneuropathy, organomegaly, endocrinopathy, monoclonal gammopathy and skin changes syndrome. IgM-type PAN...

Histological assessment of cardiac amyloidosis in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement
ConclusionsThe co-prevalence of AS and CA was lower than expected, at 4.9%. Despite excellent 1 year mortality, AS + CA patients died significantly more often from SCD. We propose a multimodal algorithm to facilitate more effective screening for CA containing parameters commonly documented during clinical routine. Proteomic biomarkers may yield additional information in the future. (Source: ESC Heart Failure)

Delayed diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis in a West African octogenarian
We report on a case of a West African octogenarian who was treated presumptively for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction from hypertensive heart disease, based on his initial clinical presentation and echocardiographic findings three years earlier. By adopting a stepwise approach to his evaluation, including revisiting the history, and the application of multimodality cardiac imaging, the patient was diagnosed with cardiac amyloidosis.PMID:38407420 | DOI:10.5830/CVJA-2024-001 (Source: Cardiovascular Journal of Africa)
