Antiangiogenic therapy with bevacizumab improves outcomes in ovarian cancer but induces hypertension, leading to major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). While calcium channel blockers (CCBs) and angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) are recommended for managing bevacizumab‐associated hypertension, their impacts on cancer progression and ...

Coronary angioplasty early after diagnosis of unstable angina [PDF]
Coronary angioplasty (PTCA) was performed early after diagnosis of unstable angina in 71 patients who responded favorably with initial pharmacologic treatment and who also had persistent exertional angina. The patients selected for PTCA had predominantly

Long‐term prognosis of pure and impure tachycardiomyopathy
Abstract Background and aims Tachycardia‐induced cardiomyopathy (TCM) is a reversible form of heart failure (HF) driven by arrhythmias, often atrial fibrillation (AF). While reversible, TCM's long‐term prognosis remains unclear, especially in comparison to HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
