Authors' recommendations: Evidence of moderate methodological quality shows the usefulness of N-terminal type B natriuretic propeptide in assessing the prognosis in light-chain and transthyretin deposit amyloidosis. Low quality evidence demonstrates its usefulness in assessing treatment response in light-chain amyloidosis. The clinical practice guidelines do recommend it for both indications in light-chain amyloidosis. No health technology assessments were found and the United States health sponsors evaluated do not mention its coverage for that indication.
