Abstract:Advances in breast cancer (BC) treatment have contributed to improved survival, but BC survivors experience significant short-term and long-term cardiovascular mortality and morbidity, including an elevated risk of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Most research has focused on HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) after BC; however, recent studies suggest HFpEF is the more prevalent subtype after BC and is associated with substantial health burden. The increased HFpEF risk observed in… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
