Incremental Value of Global Longitudinal Strain for Predicting Survival in Patients With Advanced AL Amyloidosis

Incremental Value of Global Longitudinal Strain for Predicting Survival in Patients With Advanced AL Amyloidosis

Background: Advanced light-chain (AL) amyloidosis is associated with poor prognosis, with a 5-year survival rate of <25%. Prognostication is based on the revised Mayo (rMayo) staging according to serum cardiac biomarkers. Objectives: This study sought to determine whether global longitudinal stra...
