Absence of coronary artery disease in patients undergoing coronary imaging and association with amyloidosis: A Danish nationwide study

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This nationwide registry-based study in Denmark revealed a higher 10-year cumulative incidence of amyloidosis among 79,443 coronary artery disease-negative patients compared to matched controls, with an adjusted hazard ratio of 7.43 (95% CI 4.01-13.7). These findings warrant prospective studies to investigate the prevalence of amyloidosis in patients negative for coronary artery disease after coronary examination.
