Early and late onset cardiotoxicity following anthracycline-based chemotherapy in breast cancer patients: Incidence and predictors.

Introduction: Cardiotoxicity represents a major limitation for the use of anthracyclines or trastuzumab in breast cancer patients. Data on longitudinal studies about early and late onset cardiotoxicity in this group of patients is scarce. The objective of the present study was to assess predictors of early and late onset cardiotoxicity in patients with breast cancer treated with A.

[The Cinematographic Narration of the Posthumanism].

The cinema constitutes today the aesthetic forefront of the posthumanism and a powerful instance of reflection on the posthuman future. In its more futurist dimension, the films present an evolutionary irreversible process linked to the technological development, which will determine the end of the human kind and its birth to a new posthuman reality. But it turns out paradoxical that the process of dehumanization of the human beings appears like inevitable and, nevertheless, appears as ideally Utopian the desire of humanization of the androids (to support the human values beyond the human kind).

Diastolic Dysfunction Following Anthracycline-Based Chemotherapy in Breast Cancer Patients: Incidence and Predictors.

Introduction: Cardiotoxicity represents a major limitation for the use of anthracyclines or trastuzumab in breast cancer patients. Data from longitudinal studies of diastolic dysfunction (DD) in this group of patients are scarce. The objective of the present study was to assess the incidence, evolution, and predictors of DD in patients with breast cancer treated with anthracyclines.

[Congenital atrioventricular block and Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome].

We report the case of a patient followed since childhood for congenital complete atrioventricular block. At 28 years of age, atrioventricular conduction through an accessory pathway with long conduction times was detected. Periods of atrioventricular conduction alternated with periods of atrioventricular block.
