Popis: To investigate the cardiotoxicity indexes in children with malignant tumors after the administration of anthracycline (ANT) chemotherapy.Data from 131 children with malignant tumors who were treated using ANT chemotherapy at our hospital from January 2011 to December 2015 were collected to analyze the serologic indexes (such as N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide [NT-proBNP] and isoenzyme of creatine kinase [CK-MB]) and changes in corrected QT interval(QT-c) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) before and after treatment with different ANT cumulative doses.General clinical data revealed that 2 of the 131 children developed clinical cardiotoxicity. The ANT cumulative dose range was 12-697 mg/mNT-proBNP showed significant changes when the ANT dose was200 mg/m
