      In patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD), depression is common, persistent, and associated with worse health-related quality of life, recurrent cardiac events, and mortality. Both physiological and behavioral ...
    • Early Detection and Prediction of Cardiotoxicity in Chemotherapy-Treated Patients 

      Sawaya, Heloisa; Sebag, Igal A.; Plana, Juan Carlos; Januzzi, James Louis; Ky, Bonnie; Cohen, Victor; Gosavi, Sucheta; Carver, Joseph R.; Wiegers, Susan E.; Martin, Randolph P.; Picard, Michael Howard; Gerszten, Robert Edgardo; Halpern, Elkan; Passeri, Jonathan James; Kuter, Irene; Scherrer-Crosbie, Marielle (Elsevier BV, 2011)
      As breast cancer survival increases, cardiotoxicity associated with chemotherapeutic regimens such as anthracyclines and trastuzumab becomes a more significant issue. Assessment of the left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction ...
    • Early Increases in Multiple Biomarkers Predict Subsequent Cardiotoxicity in Patients With Breast Cancer Treated With Doxorubicin, Taxanes, and Trastuzumab
