Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: To investigate obesity as susceptibility factor in patients with idiopathic AA amyloidosis. METHODS: Clinical, biochemical and genetic data were obtained from 146 patients with AA amyloidosis. Control groups comprised 40 patients with long-standing inflammatory diseases without AA amyloidosis and 56 controls without any inflammatory disease. FINDINGS: Patients with AA amyloidosis had either familial...
