| Abstract | OBJECTIVES: This study sought to determine the frequency of left ventricular amyloid in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). BACKGROUND: Left ventricular amyloid deposition can cause diastolic dysfunction and HFpEF. METHODS: Autopsy of left ventricular specimens from patients with antemortem diagnosis of HFpEF without clinically apparent amyloid (n = 109) and from control subjects (n = 131) were screened with sulfated Alcian blue and subsequent Congo red staining with microdissection for mass spectrometry-based proteomics to determine amyloid type. Fibrosis was assessed with quantitative whole-field digital microscopy. RESULTS: The presence of wild-type transthyretin (wtTTR) amyloid was associated with age at death and male sex, but the age- and sex-adjusted prevalence of wtTTR amyloid was higher in HFpEF patients than in control subjects (odds ratio: 3.8, 95% confidence interval: 1.5 to 11.3; p = 0.03). Among HFpEF patients, moderate or severe interstitial wtTTR deposition, consistent with senile systemic amyloidosis as the primary etiology of HFpEF, was present in 5 (5%) patients (80% men), with mild interstitial and/or variable severity of intramural coronary vascular deposition in 13 (12%) patients. While, wtTTR deposition was often mild, adjusting for age and presence of HFpEF, wtTTR amyloid was associated with more fibrosis (p = 0.005) and lower age, sex, and body size-adjusted heart weight (p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS: Given the age- and sex-independent association of HFpEF and wtTTR deposition and an emerging understanding of the pathophysiology of the amyloidoses, the current findings support further investigation of the role of wtTTR in the pathophysiology of HFpEF. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
