: There is significant underrepresentation in clinical trials across diverse populations. Less is known about how health system-related factors, such as relationships and trust, mediate the motivation for clinical trial participation. We aimed to investigate whether health system-related factors explain the association between sociodemographic factors and motivation for participation.

Owing to the growing use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in the treatment of cancer, a wide spectrum of toxicity has arisen among cancer patients. Yet, limited ICI toxicity-related research is currently conducted in our region. This is a retrospective observational study conducted on adult cancer patients who received at least one cycle of ICI single therapy.

Background/objectives: Differential diagnosis of sudden cardiac death (SCD) remains challenging, particularly in cases lacking evident structural abnormalities. Cardiac markers have been proposed as useful tools for this differentiation in forensic contexts. However, key issues include the influence of postmortem interval (PMI) on marker stability and the limitations of traditional approaches that focus on pericardial fluid, which requires invasive sampling compared to peripheral blood.

Unlabelled: Echocardiographic myocardial strain is crucial for early detection of anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity, particularly in patients at moderate or high risk.

Background/objectives: This study investigates changes in global longitudinal strain (GLS) in breast cancer patients with low baseline risk for cardiotoxicity during cancer therapy. We also examined the relationship between echocardiographic strain, structural myocardial changes, and microRNA (miRNA) dysregulation associated with cancer treatment using an animal model.

Cardiac Markers in Pediatric Laboratory Medicine: Critical Review.

Diagnostics (Basel)

January 2025

Department of Laboratory Diagnostics, Children's Hospital Zagreb, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia.

Currently, there are no validated guidelines or recommendations for how to interpret cardiac biomarkers in the pediatric population. The most commonly used cardiac biomarkers are cardiac troponins and natriuretic peptides, but the clinical value of common cardiac biomarkers in pediatric laboratory medicine is restricted due to age- and sex-specific interpretations, and there are no standardized cut-off values. The results from the studies on reference values, as well as results from clinical studies, are difficult to compare with identical studies due to the heterogeneity of subject characteristics (gestational and chronological age, sex, pubertal status, menstrual cycle, exercise), assay characteristics (type of assay, generation of assay, analytical platform used), and experimental protocol characteristics (prospective or retrospective studies, reference population selection, patient population selection, inclusion and exclusion criteria, number of subjects).
