Prognosis prediction in cardiac amyloidosis by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging: a systematic review with meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: Cardiac involvement is the foremost determinant of the clinical progression of amyloidosis. The diagnostic role of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging in cardiac amyloidosis has been established, but the prognostic role of various right and left CMR tissue characterization and functional parameters, including global longitudinal strain (GLS), late gadolinium enhancement (LGE), and parametric mapping, is yet to be delineated. We searched EMBASE, PubMed, and MEDLINE for studies analysing the prognostic use of CMR imaging in patients with light chain amyloidosis or transthyretin amyloidosis cardiac amyloidosis. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality. A random effects model was used to calculate a pooled odds ratio using inverse-variance weighting. Nineteen studies with 2199 patient
