Association between cancer and cardiovascular disease risk: a cross-sectional study of 241,064 individuals

Key Points

Cancer increases cardiovascular disease risk, highlighting the need for integrated care.
The study reveals a significant correlation, indicating potential shared risk factors between conditions.

Structured PICO

Is cancer associated with increased cardiovascular disease risk in a population of 241,064 individuals?

Population

241,064 individuals

Intervention

Cancer (evaluated as an exposure/risk factor)

Outcome

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk

Cancer survivorship is significantly correlated with increased cardiovascular disease risk, highlighting the need for targeted CVD risk assessment and prevention in this population.

Abstract

There is a significant positive correlation between cancer and CVD risk, indicating that CVD risk assessment and prevention efforts for cancer survivors should be strengthened.
