Abstract
AIM Poor cardiorespiratory fitness has been suggested to increase the risk of chronic diseases in obesity. We investigated the ability of key variables from cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) to predict all-cause mortality in an obese cohort. METHODS The sample included 469 participants of both sexes (mean age 40 ± 13 years) who underwent a CPET for clinical reasons between 1 March 2009 and 1 December 2023. All-cause mortality was the prognostic endpoint. A receiver operating characteristic analysis was performed to establish optimal cut-points for CPET variables. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses were used to determine the association between CPET variables and all-cause mortality. RESULTS There were 46 deaths during a mean follow-up period of 69 ± 48 months, resulting in an annual mortality rate of 2%. Despite the sample being made up of mostly women (70%), there were more deaths in men (18 vs. 6%, p < 0.001).The optimal thresholds for discrimination of survival were as follows: (a) peak oxygen uptake (pVO2) ≤16 mL/kg/min; (b) minute ventilation/carbon dioxide production (VE/VCO2) slope ≥31; (c) ventilatory power ≤5.8 mmHg; and (d) circulatory power ≤2980 mmHg/mL O2/min. Kaplan-Meier survival plots revealed a significant positive association between lower pVO2, circulatory power and ventilatory power values and survival (log-rank, p < 0.001) and higher mortality for men than women. Adjusted Cox regression models showed that a pVO2 ≤16 mL/kg/min had a 20-fold higher risk of mortality when compared with >16 mL/kg/min. CONCLUSION Given the strong association of VO2, ventilatory efficiency, circulatory and ventilatory power with all-cause mortality, our findings support the notion that poorer cardiorespiratory fitness is associated with a poor prognosis in patients with obesity.

Cardio-Oncology Rehabilitation for Cancer Survivors With High Cardiovascular Risk: A Randomized Clinical Trial. JAMA Cardiol 2023; 8:1119-1128. [PMID: 37819656 PMCID: PMC10568446 DOI: 10.1001/jamacardio.2023.3558] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2023] [Accepted: 08/03/2023] [Indexed: 10/13/2023]
Abstract
Importance Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of morbidity in cancer survivors, which makes strategies aimed at mitigating cardiovascular risk a subject of major contemporary importance. Objective To assess whether a center-based cardiac rehabilitation (CBCR) framework compared with usual care encompassing community-based exercise training (CBET) is superior for cardiorespiratory fitness improvement and cardiovascular risk factor control among cancer survivors with high cardiovascular risk. Design, Setting, and Participants This prospective, single-center, randomized clinical trial (CORE trial) included adult cancer survivors who had exposure to cardiotoxic cancer treatment and/or previous cardiovascular disease. Enrollment took place from March 1, 2021, to March 31, 2022. End points were assessed at baseline and after the 8-week intervention. Interventions Participants were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to 8 weeks of CBCR or CBET. The combined aerobic and resistance exercise sessions were performed twice a week. Main Outcomes and Measures The powered primary efficacy measure was change in peak oxygen consumption (V̇o2) at 2 months. Secondary outcomes included handgrip maximal strength, functional performance, blood pressure (BP), body composition, body mass index (BMI; calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared), lipid profile, plasma biomarker levels, physical activity (PA) levels, psychological distress, quality of life (QOL), and health literacy. Results A total of 75 participants completed the study (mean [SD] age, 53.6 [12.3] years; 58 [77.3%] female), with 38 in the CBCR group and 37 in the CBET group. Participants in CBCR achieved a greater mean (SD) increase in peak V̇o2 than those in CBET (2.1 [2.8] mL/kg/min vs 0.8 [2.5] mL/kg/min), with a between-group mean difference of 1.3 mL/kg/min (95% CI, 0.1-2.6 mL/kg/min; P = .03). Compared with the CBET group, the CBCR group also attained a greater mean (SD) reduction in systolic BP (-12.3 [11.8] mm Hg vs -1.9 [12.9] mm Hg; P < .001), diastolic BP (-5.0 [5.7] mm Hg vs -0.5 [7.0] mm Hg; P = .003), and BMI (-1.2 [0.9] vs 0.2 [0.7]; P < .001) and greater mean (SD) improvements in PA levels (1035.2 [735.7] metabolic equivalents [METs]/min/wk vs 34.1 [424.4] METs/min/wk; P < .001), QOL (14.0 [10.0] points vs 0.4 [12.9] points; P < .001), and health literacy scores (2.7 [1.6] points vs 0.1 [1.4] points; P < .001). Exercise adherence was significantly higher in the CBCR group than in the CBET group (mean [SD] sessions completed, 90.3% [11.8%] vs 68.4% [22.1%]; P < .001). Conclusion and Relevance The CORE trial showed that a cardio-oncology rehabilitation model among cancer survivors with high cardiovascular risk was associated with greater improvements in peak V̇o2 compared with usual care encompassing an exercise intervention in a community setting. The CBCR also showed superior results in exercise adherence, cardiovascular risk factor control, QOL, and health literacy. Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05132998.

Cardiovascular events in patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors in Taiwan: a nationwide population-based study. Eur J Prev Cardiol 2021; 29:1312-1321. [PMID: 34179961 DOI: 10.1093/eurjpc/zwab043] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2020] [Revised: 02/10/2021] [Accepted: 03/06/2021] [Indexed: 01/23/2023]
Abstract
AIMS New-generation breakpoint cluster region-Abelson tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have a higher incidence of cardiovascular events than imatinib in patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML). However, this knowledge is insufficiently proven. Hence, this study aimed to explore the association between cardiovascular events and TKIs in patients with CML. METHODS AND RESULTS This retrospective population-based cohort study enrolled first-time users of imatinib, dasatinib, and nilotinib between 1 January 2007 and 31 December 2016. Arterial thromboembolic events (ATEs) were the primary outcome, while other cardiovascular-related events were the secondary outcomes. The event rates were estimated using Kaplan-Meier estimates, and the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using Cox regression. Additionally, the competing risk was adjusted using the Fine and Gray competing risk model. We included 1207 patients. Nilotinib had a significantly higher ATE risk (subdistribution HR = 4.92, 95% CI = 1.68-14.36) than imatinib. Conversely, no difference was found for other cardiovascular-related events. Risks of ATE and other cardiovascular-related events were similar between dasatinib and imatinib and between nilotinib and dasatinib. The risk of ATE hospitalization consistently increased throughout the main analyses and sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSION Nilotinib-treated patients had a significantly higher risk of developing ATE than imatinib-treated patients. However, the risks of ATE and other cardiovascular-related events were not significantly different between dasatinib and imatinib.

Abstract
Abstract
Aims
The actual usefulness of cardiovascular (CV) risk factor assessment in the prognostic evaluation of cancer patients treated with cardiotoxic treatment remains largely unknown. Prospective multicentre study in patients scheduled to receive anticancer therapy related with moderate/high cardiotoxic risk.
Methods and results
A total of 1324 patients underwent follow-up in a dedicated cardio-oncology clinic from April 2012 to October 2017. Special care was given to the identification and control of CV risk factors. Clinical data, blood samples, and echocardiographic parameters were prospectively collected according to protocol, at baseline before cancer therapy and then at 3 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 1.5 years, and 2 years after initiation of cancer therapy. At baseline, 893 patients (67.4%) presented at least one risk factor, with a significant number of patients newly diagnosed during follow-up. Individual risk factors were not related with worse prognosis during a 2-year follow-up. However, a higher Systemic Coronary Risk Estimation (SCORE) was significantly associated with higher rates of severe cardiotoxicity (CTox) and all-cause mortality [hazard ratio (HR) 1.79 (95% confidence interval, CI 1.16–2.76) for SCORE 5–9 and HR 4.90 (95% CI 2.44–9.82) for SCORE ≥10 when compared with patients with lower SCORE (0–4)].
Conclusions
This large cohort of patients treated with a potentially cardiotoxic regimen showed a significant prevalence of CV risk factors at baseline and significant incidence during follow-up. Baseline CV risk assessment using SCORE predicted severe CTox and all-cause mortality. Therefore, its use should be considered in the evaluation of cancer patients.
