<p><strong>Aim: </strong>This study aimed to evaluate the risk of doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity in newly diagnosed breast cancer patients with type 2 diabetes receiving dapagliflozin in addition to metformin, using echocardiographic methods, and to investigate the potential cardioprotective effects of dapagliflozin.</p><p><strong>Materials and methods: </strong>In this prospective observational study, a total of 60 newly diagnosed breast cancer patients with type 2 diabetes were enrolled. Thirty patients who had been treated with metformin and subsequently received dapagliflozin in addition to metformin during doxorubicin therapy constituted the dapagliflozin group. The non-dapagliflozin group consisted of 30 patients who, while continuing metformin, were initiated on another oral antidiabetic agent (excluding dapagliflozin) alongside doxorubicin therapy. N-terminal pro-B type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LVGLS) were measured at baseline and at the 3rd month of treatment. Between-group baseline characteristics were compared using the independent samples t-test for continuous variables. Within-group changes from baseline to 3 months were analyzed with paired t-tests. Between-group comparisons of 3-month outcomes and changes (ΔLVEF, ΔLVGLS, ΔNT-proBNP) were also conducted using independent samples t-tests. To evaluate the independent effect of dapagliflozin on LVGLS, multivariable linear regression analysis was performed. Model fit was reported with adjusted R², F-statistics and 95% confidence intervals.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>In the non-dapagliflozin group, LVEF and NT-proBNP levels showed no significant differences between baseline and post-treatment; however, LVGLS values significantly deteriorated. In contrast, the dapagliflozin group demonstrated a significant increase in LVEF (- 2.000 [95% CI - 2.392, - 1.608]) and LVGLS (+ 1.367 [95% CI + 1.159, + 1.574]), as well as a marked reduction in NT-proBNP levels (+ 64.933 [95% CI + 57.902, + 71.964]) after 3 months of treatment (p < 0.001). At the third month, the dapagliflozin group exhibited significantly better LVGLS (+ 2.133 [95% CI + 1.346, + 2.921]) and lower NT-proBNP levels (+ 57.000 [95% CI + 28.302, + 85.698]) compared with the non-dapagliflozin group (p < 0.001). Multivariable linear regression analysis confirmed that dapagliflozin use was independently associated with significant improvement in LVGLS at 3 months.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>In conclusion, dapagliflozin was associated with more favorable short-term surrogate changes in LVGLS and NT-proBNP during doxorubicin therapy. The favorable changes observed in LVEF, LVGLS, and NT-proBNP parameters suggest that dapagliflozin may be considered a potential cardioprotective agent and incorporated into preventive strategies against chemotherapy-related cardiotoxicity in diabetic patients.

Background: The extent to which anal and anorectal tumors are missed during endoscopic examinations has not been thoroughly investigated. This study investigated the clinical features of tumors that were missed during endoscopic examinations.
Aim: To investigate and analyze the endoscopic and clinical features of missed anal and anorectal tumors.
Methods: All patients diagnosed with anal and anorectal tumors between 2014 and 2024 at West China Hospital were included in this retrospective cohort analysis. Demographic data, tumor characteristics, endoscopic findings, and missed diagnosis records were extracted from electronic medical records and telephone follow-up. A descriptive and error-classification analysis was performed to identify the reasons for missed diagnoses during endoscopy.
Results: Descriptive and error-classification analysis among the 83 enrolled patients, 10 (7 with adenocarcinoma and 3 with squamous cell carcinoma) had undergone previous endoscopic examinations with negative diagnoses, resulting in a missed detection proportion of 12.0%. Six missed cases with 15 prior colonoscopies in which the lesions were overlooked had complete medical records. The mean number of endoscopic procedures performed prior to the definitive diagnosis was 2.5 (range: 1-5), with an average diagnostic delay of 43.4 months (range: 1-82). The causes of missed diagnoses included exposure errors (n = 8), judgment errors (n = 6), and biopsy errors (n = 1). The proportion of endoscopic rectal retroflexion to observe anus was 20% .
Conclusion: The missed diagnosis proportion of anal and anorectal tumors was high during endoscopic examination. Comprehensive endoscopic observation and enhanced recognition of the endoscopic features of anal tumors are essential.
