The International Cardio-Oncology Society has released new guidelines for managing cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction, addressing educational gaps identified in a survey of 220 healthcare providers. The survey found highest educational needs for topics like immune checkpoint inhibitor-associated myocarditis and atrial fibrillation management.
A study finds nearly half of melanoma patients receiving BRAF or MEK inhibitors develop hypertension or cardiac dysfunction. Moderate to severe cardiac issues appear within 4 weeks and only in patients with medium or higher baseline risk. Higher baseline NT-proBNP levels are associated with increased cardiac dysfunction risk.
A major meta-analysis of 19 randomized trials involving 123,940 participants found that only six side effects are actually caused by statins, challenging long-standing concerns about the drugs' safety profile.
A systematic review of 64 randomized clinical trials found GLP-1 receptor agonists produce greater weight loss in women than men, while the global market is projected to grow from $51.57 billion in 2026 to $112.62 billion by 2032.
