Fig. 2From: Abdominal fat pad biopsies exhibit good diagnostic accuracy in patients with suspected transthyretin amyloidosisTest sensitivity in ATTRv amyloidosis patients. Sensitivity of abdominal fat pad biopsies in different subgroups of patients with a final diagnosis of hereditary transthyretin (ATTRv) amyloidosis within three years from initial biopsy. a Test sensitivity in subgroups as per symptom/findings and sex. Each patient can present with more than one symptom or complication, and most patients presented with a mixed phenotype. No significant differences were found between the subgroups. b Test sensitivity in patients with a pure neuropathic or pure cardiac phenotype.
