Exercise attenuates cardiotoxicity of anthracycline chemotherapy measured by global longitudinal strain [Letter]
[Extract] Anthracycline-based chemotherapy (AC) is a common
treatment for patients with breast cancer and has
been associated with a dramatic improvement in
breast cancer survivorship. Among patients with
early-stage breast cancer, cardiovascular diseases
represent the most common cause of mortality, and
there is a growing emphasis on strategies for minimizing
the toxic effects of breast cancer treatments
on the cardiovascular system (1)
