Background: Patients with wild-type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt-CM) often have cardiovascular comorbidities, including acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and coronary artery disease (CAD). Results and major findings: At baseline, 9% of patients had a history of ACS and this was associated with increased risk of adverse outcomes, while this was not the case for obstructive CAD without ACS. Further prospective studies are needed to corroborate these findings.

Abstract

Background: Patients with wild-type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt-CM) often have cardiovascular comorbidities, including acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and coronary artery disease (CAD). Results and major findings: At baseline, 9% of patients had a history of ACS and this was associated with increased risk of adverse outcomes, while this was not the case for obstructive CAD without ACS. Further prospective studies are needed to corroborate these findings.
