OBJECTIVE Establish whether inflammatory biomarkers-serum amyloid A (SAA), C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)-are related to key symptoms of depression, including anxiety and fatigue, in a cross-sectional, out-patient setting to identify biomarkers

Cross-sectional Associations of Fatigue with Cerebral β-Amyloid in Older Adults at Risk of Dementia.

Only registered users can translate articles

Accelerated brain aging has been proposed to explain cancer-related cognitive impairment, but empirical evidence for this relationship is lacking. The purpose of this study was to evaluate amyloid beta (Aβ) and tau, biomarkers of neurodegeneration, in relation to cognition in breast

Classic features of primary systemic amyloidosis (AL amyloidosis) leading to diagnosis of plasma cell myeloma.

Only registered users can translate articles

The diagnosis of primary systemic amyloidosis, also known as AL (amyloid light-chain) amyloidosis, is often delayed owing to its nonspecific manifestations as well as its rarity. A 64-year-old woman presented with an eight-month history of significant weight loss, anemia, fatigue, and progressive

The use of PROMIS patient-reported outcomes (PROs) to inform light chain (AL) amyloid disease severity at diagnosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

We sought to evaluate how PROMIS patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures correlated with disease characteristics in systemic light chain (AL) amyloidosis patients at diagnosis. Newly diagnosed AL patients were recruited at two centres (N = 61). Patients completed the PROMIS Global Health

Analysis of Cardiac Amyloidosis Progression Using Model-Based Markers

Only registered users can translate articles

Deposition of amyloid in the heart can lead to cardiac dilation and impair its pumping ability. This ultimately leads to heart failure with worsening symptoms of breathlessness and fatigue due to the progressive loss of elasticity of the myocardium. Biomarkers linked to the clinical deterioration
