The Impact of Atrial Fibrillation on hospitalization Outcomes for Patients With Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Using the National Inpatient Sample Database
CONCLUSION: CLL patients with AF are at a significantly increased risk of all-cause mortality, cardiac-related mortality, and stroke. For this population, a multidisciplinary approach should be orchestrated for better management and outcomes.PMID:34598909 | DOI:10.1016/j.clml.2021.08.006

Cardiovascular Programming During and After Diabetic Pregnancy: Role of Placental Dysfunction and IUGR
This study demonstrated that the incidence of ischemic heart disease and death were three times higher among men with low birth weight compared to men with high birth weight (5). Epidemiological investigations of adults born at the time of the Dutch famine between 1944 and 1945 revealed an association between maternal starvation and a low infant birth weight with a high incidence of hypertension and coronary heart disease in these adults (23). Furthermore, Painter et al. reported the incidence of early onset coronary heart disease among persons conceived during the Dutch famine (24). In that regard, Barker's findin...

Transfusion strategy in hematological intensive care unit: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
Background: Packed red blood cell (PRBC) transfusion is required in hematology patients treated with chemotherapy for acute leukemia, autologous (auto) or allogeneic (allo) hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). In certain situations like septic shock, hip surgery, coronary disease or gastrointestinal hemorrhage, a restrictive transfusion strategy is associated with a reduction of infection and death. A transfusion strategy using a single PRBC unit has been retrospectively investigated and showed a safe reduction of PRBC consumption and costs. We therefore designed a study to prospectively demonstrate that the tra...

Off-Hour Admission and Mortality Risk for 28 Specific Diseases: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of 251 Cohorts Epidemiology
Conclusions Off-hour admission is associated with increased mortality risk, and the associations varied substantially for different diseases. Specialists, nurses, as well as hospital administrators and health policymakers can take these findings into consideration to improve the quality and continuity of medical services.

Cardiovascular Disease Risk Profiles in Survivors of Adolescent and Young Adult (AYA) Cancer: The Kaiser Permanente AYA Cancer Survivors Study Epidemiology
Conclusion Survivors of AYA cancer are at increased risk for developing CVD. Survival after CVD onset is compromised, and CVRFs are independent modifiers of CVD risk. These data form the basis for identifying high-risk individuals and proactive management of CVRFs.

Cardiovascular Events after Exposure to Nilotinib in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia: Long Term Follow up
Conclusion The incidence of CVEs and frequency of asymptomatic PAD in this population was low and CVEs were associated with cardiovascular risk factors. Aggressive risk factor modification and applying standard definitions for measuring cardiovascular outcomes, might have contributed to the result. Further prospective and adequately powered studies are needed to explore the effect of cardiovascular risk profile on CVEs in CML patients on Nilotinib. Teaser This study evaluated the incidence of cardiovascular events (CVEs) in 63 chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients after long term exposure to Nilotinib. By considering the...

Cardiovascular Events After Exposure to Nilotinib in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia: Long-term Follow-up
Conclusion The incidence of CVEs and the frequency of asymptomatic PAD in this population was low, and CVEs were associated with cardiovascular risk factors. Aggressive risk factor modification and applying standard definitions for measuring cardiovascular outcomes might have contributed to the findings. Further prospective and adequately powered studies are needed to explore the effect of the cardiovascular risk profile on CVEs in CML patients taking nilotinib.

Cardiovascular disease incidence in adolescent and young adult cancer survivors: a retrospective cohort study
ConclusionWhile cancer therapies are known to increase the risk of CVD, this study additionally shows that CVD risk varies by sociodemographic factors.Implications for cancer survivorsThe identification and mitigation of CVD risk factors in these subgroups may improve long-term patient outcomes.

Overall Survival and Response Rates after a 10-Year Follow-up of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Patients in Chronic Phase Treated with Imatinib in a Real-Life Practice
Conclusions. A 10-year real-life follow-up of CML patients demonstrates that imatinib maintains efficacy over time and is associated with a low rate of CV events and second neoplasias.DisclosuresRizzo: Sapienza University, Rome: Other: Resident in Hematology.

Medium and long-term risks of specific cardiovascular diseases in survivors of 20 adult cancers: a population-based cohort study using multiple linked UK electronic health records databases
In this study, we used large-scale electronic health records data from multiple linked UK databases to address these evidence gaps.MethodsFor this population-based cohort study, we used linked primary care, hospital, and cancer registry data from the UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink to identify cohorts of survivors of the 20 most common cancers who were 18 years or older and alive 12 months after diagnosis and controls without history of cancer, matched for age, sex, and general practice. We compared risks for a range of cardiovascular disease outcomes using crude and adjusted Cox models. We fitted interactions to in...

Four-Dimensional Echocardiographic Evaluation of Left Ventricular Systolic Functions in Patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia Receiving Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors.
Abstract Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are established treatment for haematological malignancies. However, cardiac adverse effects, including the reduction in left ventricular ejection fraction and symptomatic heart failure remain clinical problems. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the left ventricular systolic functions in patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia receiving TKIs. A cross-sectional and observational study was conducted of 37 patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia receiving dasatinib or nilotinib after imatinib failure. Left ventricular systolic functions were evaluated using four-dimen...

Influence of clonal hematopoiesis on non-hematological diseases and aging processes
Inn Med (Heidelb). 2022 Oct 10. doi: 10.1007/s00108-022-01409-6. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe occurrence of clonal hematopoiesis, caused by acquired somatic mutations of leukemia-associated genes in blood stem cells is very common in the population and increases with age. Besides an increased risk of developing myeloid neoplasms, an unexpected causal relationship between clonal hematopoiesis and cardiovascular diseases was recently discovered. Clonal hematopoiesis presents as a new independent and strong risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, heart failure, aortic val...
