In partnership with Medscape, we launched a medical education tool on the clinical advances in transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM). We hope this provides supportive resources for physicians to understand the changing landscape of this disease. bit.ly/48ugdnx

TAPSE divided by RV area (diastole and systole) captures radial/longitudinal motions into a unified metric: TAPSE/RVA-D and TAPSE/RVA-S Farhan Raza Naga Dharmavaram, MD University of Wisconsin Department of Medicine UW Cardiovascular Research Center UW-Madison Division of Cardiovascular Medicine Mariana Garcia-Arango #AHAJournals ahajrnls.org/3QAR0l8

Does TAPSE >17mm indicate adequate function when the Right Ventricle dilates in PH?

It doesn't...TAPSE/RV area captures ventricular function across a varying degree of RV dilation

TAPSE/RVA-D >1.1 or TAPSE/RVA-S > 1.5

A call to solid organ transplant centers! Does anyone have banked plasma samples from transplant patients who have subsequently developed PTLD (pre-diagnosis samples)? Please LMK- we’d love to collaborate for an NIH grant! Ash Alizadeh, MD/PhD 🇺🇸 Joe Schroers-Martin, MD The ISHLT American Journal of Transplantation

In ATTR-ACT, we found that renal function deteriorates over time in patients with ATTR-CM, and tafamidis treatment was associated with a reduction in this deterioration, and a higher incidence of improved eGFR and CKD staging over 30 months vs placebo.
