Cardiovascular events in cancer patients with bone metastases —A Danish population‐based cohort study of 23,113 patients
ConclusionCancer patients with bone metastases had a substantial risk of developing cardiovascular events, and these events were associated with a subsequent increased mortality. Our findings underscore the importance of continuous optimized prevention of and care for cardiovascular disease among cancer patients with bone metastases.

The role of medications in successful aging
Climacteric. 2021 May 12:1-8. doi: 10.1080/13697137.2021.1911991. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSuccessful aging includes good health and low levels of disability. To that end, primary prevention is far better than managing subsequent organ damage. When medication is needed to prevent or manage disease, the preferred choice should be associated with the greatest benefits and fewest adverse effects. Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in postmenopausal women worldwide. Considering disease-adjusted life years, other leading causes are chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes mellit...

Prehabilitation Coming of Age: IMPLICATIONS FOR CARDIAC AND PULMONARY REHABILITATION
While cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation programs traditionally involve exercise therapy and risk management following an event (eg, myocardial infarction and stroke), or an intervention (eg, coronary artery bypass surgery and percutaneous coronary intervention), prehabilitation involves enhancing functional capacity and optimizing risk profile prior to a scheduled intervention. The concept of prehabilitation is based on the principle that patients with higher functional capabilities will better tolerate an intervention, and will have better pre- and post-surgical outcomes. In addition to improving fitness, prehabilitati...

Cryptotanshinone possesses therapeutic effects on ischaemic stroke through regulating STAT5 in a rat model
CONCLUSION: Our findings not only enhance the understanding of the mechanisms underlying CT treatment, but also indicate its potential value as a promising agent in the treatment of ischaemic stroke. Further study will be valuable to examine the effects of CT on patients with ischaemic stroke.PMID:33915069 | DOI:10.1080/13880209.2021.1914672

Aortogenic embolic stroke after sleeve pneumonectomy with median sternotomy for lung cancer: a case report
ConclusionThe median sternotomy approach in sleeve pneumonectomy enables diseased lung ventilation. However, the possibility of aortogenic embolic stroke should be considered when calcification of the ascending aorta is observed on preoperative computed tomography.

Wildfire Smoke Pollution, Climate Change, and Skin Disease
More than 90% of the world ’s population lives in areas with unhealthy air, and air pollution ranks as the world’s greatest environmental hazard to human health. In 2019, air pollution (outdoor and indoor) was the fourth leading risk factor for premature death worldwide, accounting for some 7 million deaths, primarily fro m heart disease, stroke, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, lung cancer, and acute respiratory infections. The number of air pollution–related hospitalizations is estimated to be 10 times greater than the number of deaths.

Effects of Smoking on Long-Term Clinical Outcomes and Lung Cancer in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction
CONCLUSIONS: In contrast to the unadjusted model, smoking is associated with worse cardiovascular outcome and higher incidence of lung cancer after adjustment of various confounding factors. This result can be explained by the characteristics of smokers, which were young and had fewer comorbidities.PMID:33821583 | DOI:10.4070/kcj.2020.0430
