Multivariable analysis of association of beta-blocker use and survival in advanced ovarian cancer.
CONCLUSION: In this retrospective study, we found that patients identified as being on a beta-blocker at the time of surgery had worse overall survival and greater risk of death when compared to those patients not on betablockers. Importantly, 90% of patients on beta-blockers were identified as being on a cardioselective beta-blocker.
