Outcome of 121 patients with renal amyloid a amyloidosis
BACKGROUND Amyloid A (AA) amyloidosis is a multisystem, progressive and fatal disease. Renal involvement occurs early in the course of AA. We aimed to investigate the etiology, clinical and laboratory features, and outcome of patients with biopsy-proven renal AA amyloidosis.

متن کاملEprodisate for the treatment of renal disease in AA amyloidosis.
BACKGROUND Amyloid A (AA) amyloidosis is a complication of chronic inflammatory conditions that develops when proteolytic fragments of serum amyloid A protein (SAA) are deposited in tissues as amyloid fibrils. Amyloid deposition in the kidney causes progressive deterioration in renal function. Eprodisate is a member of a new class of compounds designed to interfere with interactions between amy...
متن کاملNatural history and outcome in systemic AA amyloidosis.
BACKGROUND Deposition of amyloid fibrils derived from circulating acute-phase reactant serum amyloid A protein (SAA) causes systemic AA amyloidosis, a serious complication of many chronic inflammatory disorders. Little is known about the natural history of AA amyloidosis or its response to treatment. METHODS We evaluated clinical features, organ function, and survival among 374 patients with ...
