Clinical manifestations of digitalis toxicity were clearly described by Withering in 1785. One hundred years later, certain digitalis-induced arrhythmias were inscribed on the smoked drum, and shortly thereafter with the introduction of the electrocardiograph, manifestations of digitalis toxicity as recognized today were recorded in animals and human ...

Cardiotoxicity with Itraconazole [PDF]
Itraconazole is a commonly used antifungal drug. In addition to commonly described adverse effects, there have been few reports of heart failure with its use. We present two cases that developed acute systolic heart failure with Itraconazole use. A man in his early 30s was admitted with worsening leg swelling and dyspnoea on exertion.

Functional impairment of human resident cardiac stem cells by the cardiotoxic antineoplastic agent trastuzumab [PDF]
Trastuzumab (TZM), a monoclonal antibody against the ERBB2 protein, increases survival in ERBB2-positive breast cancer patients. Its clinical use, however, is limited by cardiotoxicity. We sought to evaluate whether TZM cardiotoxicity involves inhibition

ABSTRACT Background Cyclophosphamide (CY) is associated with potentially fatal cardiotoxicity, yet no electrocardiographic indices have been established for early detection of CY‐induced cardiomyopathy. This study aimed to determine whether corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation can predict early onset of CY‐related cardiac dysfunction in pediatric ...

The puzzling clinical presentation of fluoropyrimidines cardiotoxicity
The cardiotoxicity of fluoropyrimidines (FP) [5-Fluorouracil and Capecitabine] is often reported as acute cardiac ischemia with rest typical angina, signs of ischemia at electrocardiogram (ECG), and ventricular kinetics abnormalities.

ABSTRACT Background B‐acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B‐ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer, and while most children in high‐resource settings are cured, therapy carries risks for long‐term toxicities. Understanding parents’ concerns about these late effects is essential to guide anticipatory support and inform evolving therapeutic approaches ...
