Background. Doxorubicin cardiotoxicity remains a serious problem in children with malignancy. The present study was undertaken to determine if the administration of consecutive divided daily doses of doxorubicin would significantly reduce the likelihood of cardiotoxicity in children compared with a
## Abstract The relationship between digoxin administration and the development of doxorubicin cardiomyopathy was evaluated in a chronic experimental rabbit model. We graded the myocardial pathology by conventional light microscopic histologic techniques. Additionally, myocardial fibrosis was quant
## Abstract The prevention of doxorubicin (DXR)βinduced cardiotoxicity may be helpful to improve future DXR therapy. The aim of this study was to investigate the cardioβprotective effects of caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), an antioxidant agent, on DXRβinduced cardiotoxicity. Rats were divided
