Title: A systematic review on clinical predictors of anthracycline cardiotoxicity
Highlights: Clinical studies reporting on the incidence and predictors of anthracycline cardiotoxicity will be systematically searched, appraised and pooled with meta-analytic methods
Search strategy: PubMed will be searched for pertinent articles according to the following highly sensitive strategy: doxorubicin OR anthracycline* OR epirubicin OR adriamycin) AND (cardiotoxic* OR (cardiac AND toxicit*)) AND (predict* OR independent* OR Prognosis/Broad[filter] OR Therapy/Broad[filter]) NOT (animal [mh] NOT human [mh]) NOT (comment[pt] OR editorial[pt] OR meta-analysis[pt] OR practice-guideline[pt] OR review[pt])

	Meta-analysis and Evidence-based Medicine Training in Cardiology
	The metcardio.org website is dedicated to meta-analysis and evidence-based medicine training in cardiology. It is sponsored by the Meta-analysis and Evidence-based medicine Training in Cardiology (METCARDIO) Group, currently headquartered in Turin, Italy, and formerly known as the Center for Overview, Meta-analysis, and Evidence-based Medicine Training (COMET). The focus of the metcardio.org website is on clinical research methods and evidence-based cardiovascular medicine with a specific interest in interventional cardiology and peripheral cardiovascular interventions. Nonetheless, there is plenty of training and research opportunities for other evidence-based endeavors, eg in anesthesiology, critical care medicine, and psychiatry.
