Glycogen phosphorylase BB as a marker of cardiac toxicity during high-dose chemotherapy followed by hematopoietic cell transplantation
| The first 10% of the full text of this article appears below. |
Cardiotoxicity is a potentially serious complication of oncology treatment. Myeloablative preparative regimen (PR) followed by hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) represents high risk for the development of cardiotoxicity [1]. Various methods have been recommended for monitoring cardiotoxicity in oncology. Recently, the applicability of cardiac troponins (cTnT, cTnI) has been investigated in this
