Journal ArticleDOI

Cardiotoxicity of anthracycline agents for the treatment of cancer: systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials

TL;DR: Evidence is not sufficiently robust to support clear evidence-based recommendations on different anthracycline treatment regimens, or for routine use of cardiac protective agents or liposomal formulations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plasma-induced graft polymerization of acrylic acid onto poly(ethylene terephthalate) films: characterization and human smooth muscle cell growth on grafted films.

TL;DR: Graft polymerization of acrylic acid onto poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) films was carried out to develop surfaces for protein immobilization and smooth muscle cell seeding.
Journal ArticleDOI

Baseline cardiovascular risk assessment in cancer patients scheduled to receive cardiotoxic cancer therapies: a position statement and new risk assessment tools from the Cardio-Oncology Study Group of the Heart Failure Association of the European Society of Cardiology in collaboration with the International Cardio-Oncology Society

Alexander R. Lyon, +53 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented a risk stratification proformas for oncology patients prior to receiving cancer therapies known to cause heart failure or other serious cardiovascular toxicities, with the aim of improving personalised approaches to minimise the risk of cardiovascular toxicity from cancer therapies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Management of cardiac health in trastuzumab-treated patients with breast cancer: updated United Kingdom National Cancer Research Institute recommendations for monitoring

TL;DR: Recommendations are devised that promote proactive pharmacological management of cardiac function in trastuzumab-treated patients, and that apply to all patients who are likely to receive standard cytotoxic chemotherapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surface modification of polyester films by RF plasma

TL;DR: In this paper, contact angle measurements, FTIR-ATR, AFM, and XPS were used to study the surface structure and dynamics of PET surfaces, showing that the surface acquired oxygen containing polar functional groups such as -C=O, -OH, and -OOH.
