“…The American Heart Association has reported the existence of several overlapping risk factors for BC and CVDs, such as smoking, poor dietary habits, sedentary lifestyle, diabetes, and obesity [10]. The risk of CVD death in BC patients may also be increased by the cardiotoxic effects of treatment, such as receiving radiation and chemotherapy [11][12][13]. The most common cardiotoxic effect during BC treatment is left ventricular dysfunction with or without heart failure [13].…”

“…The risk of CVD death in BC patients may also be increased by the cardiotoxic effects of treatment, such as receiving radiation and chemotherapy [11][12][13]. The most common cardiotoxic effect during BC treatment is left ventricular dysfunction with or without heart failure [13]. Especially in elderly patients, the threat of death from CVDs is higher than that of BC itself [14].…”

“…Large clinical studies have found that the long-term survival of patients who have undergone thoracic radiotherapy is impaired by radiation-induced heart damage (RIHD) [3][4][5]. RIHD is mainly observed many years after patients receive thoracic radiotherapy, manifesting as coronary artery disease, ischemic heart disease, pericarditis, conduction defects, and valvular dysfunction [6][7][8]. RIHD can impact prognosis and increase cardiac mortality and has become a challenge in clinical practice [9,10].…”

“…Unfortunately, patients obtain therapeutic bene ts from radiotherapy while ionizing radiation may bring normal organ complications to patients at the same time [2,3]. Radiation-induced heart damage (RIHD) is mainly observed after radiotherapy for malignant chest tumors, especially left breast cancer and Hodgkin's lymphoma with high de nitive cure rates [4,5]. RIHD is mainly characterized by coronary artery disease, ischemic heart disease, pericarditis, conduction defects, and valvular dysfunction and so on [6,7].…”
