Usage Information
Abstract
Advances in cancer therapy have greatly extended patient survival but have also introduced a growing burden of cardiovascular toxicity that threatens long-term outcomes. These toxicities encompass a broad and often unpredictable range of clinical presentations, complicating oncologic care. Understanding how chemotherapy, targeted agents, and immune modulators impair cardiovascular function is essential for early detection, prevention, and management. Emerging insights into the cellular and molecular mechanisms, ranging from immune activation to transcriptional reprogramming and disrupted intercellular communication, underscore the complexity of cancer therapy–induced cardiac injury. Unraveling these mechanisms will be key to developing personalized, mechanism-based strategies that preserve cardiac function without compromising anticancer efficacy. As survivorship continues to improve, mitigating cardiotoxicity remains a critical priority for preserving both the quality and duration of life of patients.

Usage information is collected from two different sources: this site (JCI) and Pubmed Central (PMC). JCI information (compiled daily) shows human readership based on methods we employ to screen out robotic usage. PMC information (aggregated monthly) is also similarly screened of robotic usage.
Various methods are used to distinguish robotic usage. For example, Google automatically scans articles to add to its search index and identifies itself as robotic; other services might not clearly identify themselves as robotic, or they are new or unknown as robotic. Because this activity can be misinterpreted as human readership, data may be re-processed periodically to reflect an improved understanding of robotic activity. Because of these factors, readers should consider usage information illustrative but subject to change.
