Androgen Deprivation Therapy and Risk of Cardiovascular Disease in Patients With Prostate Cancer Based on Existence of Cardiovascular Risk
CONCLUSIONS: Compared with GnRH agonists, the GnRH antagonist was found to be associated with a decreased risk of HF, specifically among patients with prior CVD. Among those with no prior CVD, the GnRH antagonist was associated with a decreased risk of IHD but an increased risk of arrhythmia.PMID:36791755 | DOI:10.6004/jnccn.2022.7083

Healthcare systems data in the context of clinical trials - A comparison of cardiovascular data from a clinical trial dataset with routinely collected data
CONCLUSION: Concordance between datasets was lower than anticipated and the HSD used could not straightforwardly replace current trial practices, nor directly identify protocol-defined CVS events. Further work is required to improve the quality of HSD and consider event definitions when designing clinical trials incorporating HSD.PMID:36933612 | DOI:10.1016/j.cct.2023.107162

Adverse cardiovascular effect following gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist versus GnRH agonist for prostate cancer treatment: A systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionGnRH antagonists appear to offer favorable safety in terms of adverse CV events and CV death compared with GnRH agonists among men diagnosed with Pca, especially those who had established CV disease at baseline.Systematic review registrationhttps://inplasy.com/inplasy-2023-2-0009/, identifier INPLASY202320009.

Unknown Causes of Death in Cancer Patients
CONCLUSION: Of the patients, 7.4% died of unknown causes during follow-up and the proportion of death was higher with longer follow-up and among more indolent cancers. The attribution of high percentages of unknown COD to cancer or non-cancer causes could impact population-based cancer registry studies or clinical trial outcomes with respect to measures involving CSS and mortality.PMID:37038261 | DOI:10.1097/COC.0000000000001003

Cancers, Vol. 15, Pages 2316: Review of Cardiovascular Risk of Androgen Deprivation Therapy and the Influence of Race in Men with Prostate Cancer
K. Kelly Androgen deprivation therapy is the cornerstone of prostate cancer therapy. Recent studies have revealed an association between androgen deprivation therapy and cardiovascular adverse effects such as myocardial infarction and stroke. This review summarizes the available research on the cardiovascular risk of men using androgen deprivation therapy. We also discuss racial disparities surrounding both prostate cancer and cardiovascular disease, emphasizing the importance of biological/molecular and socioeconomic factors in assessing baseline risk in patients beginning androgen ablation. Based on the literature, ...

A man with left-sided weakness and numbness
Clinical introduction A 63-year-old right-handed man presented for evaluation of left leg stiffness and sensory change. He had a medical history of remote prostate cancer (status post resection in 2011). The patient reported that one week prior, he began noticing left leg stiffness and numbness, as well as left hand weakness and discoordination. He went to see his internist where he had a fall while the physician was testing his gait. He was sent to the emergency room (figure 1). He denied episodes of loss of consciousness, shaking, or headaches. He had no recent weight loss, night sweats, or previous falls. Question What ...

SNHG11 :A New Budding Star in Tumors and Inflammatory Diseases
CONCLUSION: LncRNA SNHG11 can serve as an early diagnostic biomarker, therapeutic target, and prognostic indicator in various diseases, particularly tumors. SNHG11 plays a crucial role in the occurrence and development of tumors and inflammatory diseases through various mechanisms, which has significant implications for clinical diagnosis and treatment.PMID:37165588 | DOI:10.2174/1389557523666230509122402

The Intersection of Prostate Cancer and Hypertension: a Call to Action
Opinion statementWith improvements in treatment and survival from prostate cancer, comorbid cardiac conditions will significantly impact overall morbidity and mortality from prostate cancer. Hypertension is a well-established cardiovascular risk factor that increases the risk of heart failure, myocardial infarction, and stroke. Therapies used in the treatment of prostate cancer, including GnRH agonists, GnRH antagonists, enzalutamide, abiraterone, and others, can directly or indirectly increase the risk of hypertension. In this paper, we review the evidence available on the incidence and mechanism of hypertension in prosta...

Where You Live Can Shape How Alzheimer ’ s Affects You
The FDA in mid-July for the first time ever approved an Alzheimer’s drug, Leqembi. The annual price-tag will run patients $26,500. The same week, the Alzheimer’s Association for the first time ever released county-level data to identify which communities are most struggling with the disease. 6.7 million Americans live with Alzheimer’s disease and 134,000 of them will die because of it each year. We’ve known these aggregate numbers for a while now, but with new data and new drugs, healthcare specialists can now better target attention and resources. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] ...
