Abstract

Amyloidosis due to deposits of transthyretin (ATTR) is currently considered the most frequent form of cardiac amyloidosis and its incidence is increasing thanks to the advances in diagnostic imaging techniques. Some non-invasive diagnostic criteria have recently been published on this entity that due to the development of new drugs for the specific treatment of cardiac ATTR, have prognostic and therapeutic implications. That is why cardiac ATTR could cease to be a rare disease and become a frequent one, and become potentially treatable instead of incurable. We present the case of an 80-year-old male diagnosed with non-hereditary cardiac ATTR by means of gammagraphy with 99mTc diphosfonate scintigraphy (99mTc-DPD) following the new criteria of non-invasive diagnosis.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 27 June 2018.
All research outputs
#22,767,715
of 25,385,509 outputs
Outputs from Anales del Sistema Sanitario de Navarra
#221
of 258 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#301,590
of 344,555 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Anales del Sistema Sanitario de Navarra
#5
of 6 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,385,509 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 258 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 344,555 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 6 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
