Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy   >   Additional Information   >   Gender Differences   >   ATTR-CM in Women: Discussion
  • Of the 69 studies in the pooled analysis (n=4669 patients with ATTR-CM), 17% were women and 83% were men
  • The lowest proportion of women (9%) was observed in studies of wild-type ATTR-CM, whereas the highest (29%) was observed in studies of hereditary ATTR-CM

These findings are consistent with previous reports that ATTR-CM is a condition predominantly identified in men
