Does Neighborhood Walkability Impact the Burden of Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Patients With Cancer?
The results of a cross-sectional study reported in JACC: CardioOncology by Nwana et al revealed a significant association between the extent to which a neighborhood facilitates walking and the burden of modifiable cardiovascular risk factors among patients with a history of cancer. “[The findings...
Immunotherapy-Induced Multiorgan Immune-Related Adverse Events: Co-occurrence Patterns and Prognostic Implications
The results of a retrospective multicohort study, reported in The Lancet Oncology by Wan et al, suggested that the identification of the immune-related adverse event cluster to which a patient belongs may aid in prognosticating response to immunotherapy. “These insights can be leveraged to counsel...
