Hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloidosis with polyneuropathy: baseline anthropometric, demographic and disease characteristics of patients from a reference center.

Baseline demographic, anthropometric, and disease data indicate that delay in diagnosis of hATTR amyloidosis with polyneuropathy is still a problem and that efforts must be made to expedite diagnosis and maximize opportunities for new disease-modifying treatments.
