Abstract:Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common non-cancer cause of death in cancer survivors and there is an unmet clinical need for easy, accurate, and safe CVD prognostic risk-stratification in adult cancer survivors. This study investigated whether a previously validated 27-plasma protein prognostic model for four-year cardiovascular (CV) events could have such a utility. We used the 27-plasma protein model to predict the four-year risk of a CV event (myocardial infarction, stroke, transient ischemic attac… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
