Background: Anthracyclines including doxorubicin are essential components of many cancer chemotherapy regimens, but their cardiotoxicity severely limits their use. New strategies for treating anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity (AIC) are still needed. Anthracycline-induced DNA double-strand break (DSB) is the major cause of its cardiotoxicity.

Here, a zebrafish phenotypic screening with deep-learning assisted multiplex cardiac functional analysis using motion videos of larval hearts is established. Through training the model on a dataset of 2125 labeled ventricular images, ZVSegNet and HRNet exhibit superior performance over previous methods.

Our patient was admitted with a PBI caused by a tire explosion, which is an extremely rare cause of injury.
Patient Concerns: We report a case of a 28-year-old male patient who suffered a PBI when a tire exploded while it was being inflated with a high-pressure air pump.
