Concomitant Cancer, Atrial Fibrillation Linked to Increased In-Hospital Mortality
Researchers evaluated data on clinical outcomes among 107,000 patients from the National Inpatient Sample who had both cancer and atrial fibrillation.
Many Lung Cancer Patients Receive Medications That Prolong QTc Interval
A considerable proportion of patients with lung cancer are prescribed medications that prolong the corrected QT interval, limiting their eligibility for clinical trials.
Does Cardiorespiratory Fitness Affect Lung Cancer Risk Among Male Smokers?
Among former male smokers, higher cardiorespiratory fitness is independently linked to a lower risk for lung cancer incidence.
Commonly Prescribed Antihypertensives Linked to Increased Lung Cancer Risk
To investigate the association between this commonly used antihypertensive class and lung cancer, researchers conducted a population based cohort study involving 992,061 patients from the United Kingdom Clinical Practice Research Datalink.
Significant Correlation Between Glycemic Index and Lung Cancer Risk
Researchers found a significant correlation between glycemic index and lung cancer risk, more pronounced among “never smokers,” for squamous cell carcinoma, and for those with less than 12 years of education.
