Cancer patients, particularly those with lung cancer or distant metastases, face a significantly elevated risk of cardiovascular mortality early after diagnosis, highlighting the critical need for proactive cardio-oncology risk assessment and prevention.
Higher than expected CVD mortality compared to the general population was observed within the first few years after cancer diagnosis, especially among those diagnosed with lung cancer and distant metastases, which might reflect shared risk factors and cardiotoxic treatment. Our findings underscore the need for CVD risk assessment, prevention, and care among people with cancer.
