Baseline cardiovascular comorbidities, and the influence on cancer treatment decision-making in women with breast cancer
CONCLUSION: While recent guidelines recommend routine assessment of cardiovascular comorbidities in cancer patients prior to initiation of anticancer therapies, this study highlights the prevailing gap in knowledge on how such data may be used to optimise cancer treatment decision-making.PMID:34824616 | PMC:PMC8580595 | DOI:10.3332/ecancer.2021.1293

Comparison of impedance cardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging for the evaluation of
cardiac function in early-stage breast cancer patients
Objective. Breast cancer treatment can negatively impact cardiac function in some breast cancer
patients. Current methods (MUGA, echocardiography) used in clinical practice to detect abnormal
cardiac changes as a result of treatment suffer from important limitations. Use of alternative
techniques that would offer safe, inexpensive and non-invasive cardiac function assessment in this
population would be highly advantageous. The aim of this study was to examine the agreement between
impedance cardiography (ICG) and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) in quantifying stroke
volume (SV), cardiac output (CO) and end-d...

Bringing WISDOM to Breast Cancer Care
Dr. Laura Esserman answers the door of her bright yellow Victorian home in San Francisco’s Ashbury neighborhood with a phone at her ear. She’s wrapping up one of several meetings that day with her research team at University of California, San Francisco, where she heads the Carol Franc Buck Breast Care Center. She motions me in and reseats herself at a makeshift home office desk in her living room, sandwiched between a grand piano and set of enormous windows overlooking her front yard’s flower garden. It’s her remote base of operations when she’s not seeing patients or operating at the hospita...

Ischemic Stroke Risk Among Adult Brain Tumor Survivors: Evidence to Guide Practice
CONCLUSION: Nurses play a key role in the assessment, prevention, and identifying individuals who are at risk of AIS during brain tumor survivorship. Engaging patients and their caregivers on minimizing their risks of AIS is crucial in the outpatient setting. Annual surveillance visits that include intracranial artery imaging should be used to identify individuals considered most at risk for developing AIS symptoms.

Patterns of thromboembolism in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer undergoing 1st-line chemotherapy with FOLFIRINOX or Gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel
CONCLUSION: Patients with aPC undergoing palliative 1st-line chemotherapy with FOLFIRINOX or GN face a high risk for VTE/ATE and its diagnosis is linked to worse clinical outcomes. VTE-risk prediction models have limited ability to sub-stratify thrombotic events in this high-risk scenario.PMID:34255340 | DOI:10.1055/a-1548-4847
