Subclinical Systolic Dysfunction during Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer

Abstract Background Cardiotoxicity is the main complication related to cancer therapy. Studies indicate that global longitudinal strain is an early detector of subclinical dysfunction of the left ventricle, preceding the decline in ejection fraction (EF). However, the reproducibility of such methodolog...

Importancia de la cardiooncología. Cómo detectar la insuficiencia cardiaca subclínica

Arch. cardiol. Méx; 91 (2), 2021
Resumen Hoy una de las principales causas de mortalidad es el cáncer. La supervivencia en pacientes con cáncer ha incrementado de 1970 (25%) a la actualidad (80%). A raíz de la introducción de las antraciclinas como tratamiento de cáncer desde 1960-1970, más del 60% de los pacientes son tratados co...

Subclinical Anthracycline-Induced Cardiotoxicity in the Long - Term Follow-Up of Lymphoma Survivors: A Multi-Layer Speckle Tracking Analysis

Arq. bras. cardiol; 110 (3), 2018
Abstract Background: Anthracycline generates progressive left ventricular dysfunction associated with a poor prognosis. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether layer-specific strain analysis could assess the subclinical left ventricular dysfunction after exposure to anthracyclin...

Comparison between Radionuclide Ventriculography and Echocardiography for Quantification of Left Ventricular Systolic Function in Rats Exposed to Doxorubicin

Arq. bras. cardiol; 108 (1), 2017
Abstract Background: Radionuclide ventriculography (RV) is a validated method to evaluate the left ventricular systolic function (LVSF) in small rodents. However, no prior study has compared the results of RV with those obtained by other imaging methods in this context. Objectives: To compare the resul...
