fluorouracil and Left Ventricular Dysfunction

fluorouracil has been researched along with Left Ventricular Dysfunction in 21 studies

Fluorouracil: A pyrimidine analog that is an antineoplastic antimetabolite. It interferes with DNA synthesis by blocking the THYMIDYLATE SYNTHETASE conversion of deoxyuridylic acid to thymidylic acid.
5-fluorouracil : A nucleobase analogue that is uracil in which the hydrogen at position 5 is replaced by fluorine. It is an antineoplastic agent which acts as an antimetabolite - following conversion to the active deoxynucleotide, it inhibits DNA synthesis (by blocking the conversion of deoxyuridylic acid to thymidylic acid by the cellular enzyme thymidylate synthetase) and so slows tumour growth.

HRQOL and Swallowing Function

The European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) core questionnaire QLQ-C30 and disease specific questionnaires (QLQ-OES24/OG25). All items included in the questionnaires are analysed and also separate analysis of dysphagia questionnaires for oesophageal cancer were used, both clinically and psychometrically validated. All questions have four response alternatives (1, not at all; 2:a little, 3: quite a bit, 4: very much), except global scales which comprise seven response alternatives from poor to excellent. Questionnaire responses were transformed lineraly into scores ranging from 0 to 100 according to the EORTC scoring manual. A higher score indicates either more symotoms or better function, depending on the question. (NCT01362127)
