Abstract: The article focuses on a study about the detection of extracellular volume overload and sarcopenia in systemic AL amyloidosis with the application of bioimpedance vector analysis. An overview of Systemic AL amyloidosis, which causes heart failure (HF) and proteinuric chronic kidney disease (CKD) such that both extracellular volume (ECV) overload and sarcopenia, is presented.
