Abstract
Purpose of review: Analyze current evidence on racial/ethnic disparities in cardiovascular outcomes among cancer survivors, identifying factors and proposing measures to address health inequities.
Recent findings: Existing literature indicates that the Black population experiences worse cardiovascular outcomes following the diagnosis of both initial primary cancer and second primary cancer, with a notably higher prevalence of cardio-toxic events, particularly among breast cancer survivors. Contributing socioeconomic factors to these disparities include unfavorable social determinants of health, inadequate insurance coverage, and structural racism within the healthcare system. Additionally, proinflammatory epigenetic modification is hypothesized to be a contributing genetic variation factor. Addressing these disparities requires a multiperspective approach, encompassing efforts to address racial disparities and social determinants of health within the healthcare system, refine healthcare policies and access, and integrate historically stigmatized racial groups into clinical research. Racial and ethnic disparities persist in cardiovascular outcomes among cancer survivors, driven by multifactorial causes, predominantly associated with social determinants of health. Addressing these healthcare inequities is imperative, and timely efforts must be implemented to narrow the existing gap effectively.
期刊介绍：
This journal aims to review the most important, recently published clinical findings in the field of oncology. By providing clear, insightful, balanced contributions by international experts, the journal intends to serve all those involved in the care of those affected by cancer.
We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas, such as cancer prevention, leukemia, melanoma, neuro-oncology, and palliative medicine. Section Editors, in turn, select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. An international Editorial Board reviews the annual table of contents, suggests articles of special interest to their country/region, and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. Commentaries from well-known figures in the field are also provided.
