Background and Purpose Aldosterone plays a key role in blood pressure and volume regulation. Enhanced aldosterone secretion contributes to cardiovascular and renal diseases. Therefore, inhibitors of aldosterone receptors and synthase are essential drugs for the treatment of hypertension and heart failure.

Cardiovascular toxicity from immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy: an inflammatory continuum
Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy has markedly improved outcomes in advanced malignancies but has also revealed a distinct spectrum of cardiovascular immune‐related adverse events. Myocarditis represents the most severe manifestation, while non‐inflammatory left ventricular dysfunction and vascular inflammation have emerged as additional ...

Arrhythmias associated with immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy—A clinical perspective
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have transformed cancer therapy but are associated with a growing spectrum of cardiovascular immune‐related adverse events. Among these, arrhythmias represent a rare yet potentially life‐threatening complication. ICI‐induced arrhythmias encompass a wide clinical spectrum, including atrial arrhythmias, conduction ...

Abstract Background and Purpose Anthracyclines such as doxorubicin (DOXO) remain a cornerstone of cancer therapy but are associated with a high risk of cardiotoxicity and subsequent heart failure (HF). Impairment of NO/soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC)/cGMP pathway has been reported in anthracycline‐induced cardiomyopathy.

Asthma and Multimorbidity Amongst Ethnic Minority Groups in High Income Countries
There is a tight intersection between asthma, deprivation, ethnicity, multimorbidity and poor clinical outcomes. An integrated, holistic and culturally tailored approach is needed to improve clinical outcomes amongst ethnic minority groups with asthma and multimorbidity. ABSTRACT Asthma is one of the commonest noncommunicable diseases worldwide.
