Abstract
Background Transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA) is a life-threatening heart condition due to mutations in the transthyretin (TTR) gene. This study aimed to investigate ventricular global longitudinal strain (GLS) and global circumferential strain (GCS) alongside traditional echocardiographic measures in TTR carries with preserved ejection fraction (EF).
