When an aberrant protein called amyloid accumulates in our organs and tissues, it causes amyloidosis. When it happens, both their form and functionality are impacted and amyloidosis is a critical medical condition that may result in organ failure that is serious and may be lethal. In this present study, the author discussed about the amyloidosis in the right ventricle of the heart and its detection using the Machine Learning (ML). The methodology used for this research includes an infrastructure of amyloidosis detection, created by using supervised and unsupervised learning technique. The results show the precise diagnosis is crucial since the details of ailment will have a significant impact on the kind of therapy we get. The infrastructure gathers user input initially, which is utilised to prepare the data afterwards. Unsupervised data from the right ventricle is collected and supplied to the machine learning cycle after an effective data translation and model development. The study concludes that typical supervised machine learning datasets were used to train the algorithms. These methods may eventually enable longitudinal, automated, and objective monitoring of patients' ventricular function. Machine learning for vast and small datasets of Cardiac Amyloidosis (CA) and cardiac straining and functional parameters offers appealing diagnostics prediction accuracy for CA diagnosis when compared to state-of-the-art methods. The future potential of this research is the infrastructure can be used in an effective manner for the diagnosis of major diseases.

“…Amyloidosis is a disease characterized by extracellular deposition of abnormal proteins in various tissues and can be classified into six types: primary (systemic), secondary (systemic), hemodialysis-related (systemic), hereditary (systemic), senile (systemic) and localized [ 1 ]. These proteins are abnormally folded and deposit as insoluble fibrils, which leads to derangement of tissue and organ function [ 2 ].…”

“…In most circumstances, amyloidosis presents with systemic involvement and the gastrointestinal tract is involved in 50–70% of the cases. However, localized gastroduodenal amyloidosis is quite rare [ 1 , 2 ]. The clinical manifestations of localized gastroduodenal amyloidosis are non-specific, ranging from an asymptomatic presentation to epigastric pain, vomiting, weight loss and gastrointestinal bleeding [ 1 , 3 ].…”

Amyloidosis is a disorder characterized by deposition of abnormally folded proteins in the extracellular space of various tissues and organs, possibly leading to their dysfunction. In the majority of cases, amyloidosis presents with systemic involvement including the gastrointestinal tract; however, localized gastroduodenal amyloidosis is rare. We report a case of gastroduodenal amyloidosis in a 36-year-old male with multiple comorbidities who presented with right upper quadrant abdominal pain. Reports of gastroduodenal amyloidosis and other relevant literature were also reviewed and discussed alongside this case.

“…In particular, the possibility of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma needs to be considered, which is often occurs in Sjögren syndrome [2]. A few reports of single or multiple localized amyloidosis in variable organs have been described in Sjögren syndrome, most of which have a good prognosis without radical treatment [3].…”
