[PMID: 39076127 DOI: 10.1542/peds.2024-066081] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2024] [Revised: 04/30/2024] [Accepted: 05/02/2024] [Indexed: 07/31/2024] Open
Abstract
CONTEXT There is an increasing population of childhood cancer survivors (CCS) at risk for treatment-related toxicities, including skeletal morbidities. Bone mineral density (BMD) is a proxy for bone health and reductions are associated with osteoporosis and fractures. OBJECTIVE To investigate bone health in CCS by conducting a systematic review and meta-analysis of BMD after completed treatments. DATA SOURCES We searched Medline, Embase, Cochrane, and Web of Science in May 2019 and updated in May 2023. STUDY SELECTION Studies reporting BMD Z-scores measured with dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry in CCS after treatment completion. DATA EXTRACTION We performed a pooled analysis of studies reporting BMD Z-scores and thereafter we analyzed studies comparing BMD in survivors and healthy controls. All analyses were performed based on the site of BMD measurement. RESULTS Of 4243 studies, 84 were included (N = 8106). The mean time off-treatment across the studies ranged from 2 months to 24 years. The overall pooled mean Z-score was -0.57 (95% confidence interval [CI] -0.59 to -0.55) in the whole-body, -0.84 (95% CI -0.86 to -0.83) in the lumbar spine, -0.79 (95% CI -0.81 to -0.77) in the femoral neck and -0.14 (95% CI -0.18 to -0.11) in the total hip. When comparing survivors with controls, BMD was significantly lower in survivors at all sites. LIMITATIONS English publications, study-level meta-analysis. CONCLUSIONS We showed a significant reduction of BMD Z-scores in CCS. Given the increased fracture risk already within -1 SD, these results emphasize the need for BMD surveillance and secondary prevention in CCS.

Learn Health Syst 2024; 8:e10402. [PMID: 38633023 PMCID: PMC11019373 DOI: 10.1002/lrh2.10402] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2023] [Revised: 11/12/2023] [Accepted: 11/15/2023] [Indexed: 04/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Cardio-oncology focuses on diagnosing and preventing adverse cardiovascular outcomes in cancer patients. Interdisciplinary cardio-oncology services address the spectrum of prevention, detection, monitoring, and treatment of cancer patients at risk of cardio-toxicity and aim to improve the continuum of cardiac care for oncology patients. The goal of this study was to engage clinician and administrative stakeholders to assess multilevel needs, barriers, and expectations regarding cardio oncology services. Methods We interviewed clinicians and administrators at an academic medical center using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) to understand multilevel determinants influencing cardio-oncology service implementation. We also conducted a web-based survey to assess the knowledge, attitude, and perceptions of cardio-oncology services held by local and regional clinicians who may refer cardio-oncology patients to the study site. Results Multiple facilitators to cardio-oncology service implementation emerged. Interview participants believed cardio-oncology services could benefit patients and the organization by providing a competitive advantage. A majority (74%) of clinicians surveyed thought a cardio-oncology service would significantly improve cancer patients' prognoses. Implementation barriers discussed included costs and a siloed organizational structure that complicated cross-service collaboration. In the clinician survey, differences in the views toward cardio-oncology services held by cardiology versus oncology providers would need to be negotiated in future cardio-oncology service development. For example, while most providers accepted similar risk of cardio-toxicity when consenting patients for cancer therapy in a curative setting, cardiologists accepted significantly higher levels of risk than oncologists in an incurable setting: 75% of oncologists accepted 1-5% risk; 77% of cardiologists accepted ≥5% risk). Conclusions Participants supported implementation and development of cardio-oncology services. Respondents also noted multi-level barriers that could be addressed to maximize the potential for success. Engaging administrators and clinicians from cardiology and oncology disciplines in the future development of such services can help ensure maximal relevance and uptake.

J Cancer Surviv 2024:10.1007/s11764-023-01517-8. [PMID: 38183576 DOI: 10.1007/s11764-023-01517-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2023] [Accepted: 12/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/08/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Physical late effects of treatment are well-documented among childhood cancer survivors in high-income countries, but whether prevalence and risk factors are comparable in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) is unclear. We conducted a systematic review to assess physical late effect outcomes among childhood cancer survivors in LMICs. METHODS Five health sciences databases were searched from inception to November 2022 in all languages. We included observational studies conducted in LMICs that evaluated physical late effects of treatment in childhood cancer survivors. Mean or median cohort follow-up must have been ≥ 5 years from original cancer diagnosis. RESULTS Sixteen full articles and five conference abstracts were included. Studies were conducted in lower-middle (n = 12, 57%) or upper-middle income (n = 9, 43%) countries; nearly half (n = 9, 43%) were conducted in India. Five cohorts (24%) were comprised entirely of 5-year survivors. Subsequent malignant neoplasms were reported in 0-11% of survivors (n = 10 studies). Hypothyroidism and metabolic syndrome prevalence ranged from 2-49% (n = 4 studies) and 4-17% (n = 5 studies), respectively. Gonadal dysfunction ranged from 3-47% (n = 4 studies). Cardiac dysfunction ranged from 1-16% (n = 3 studies). Late effects of the musculoskeletal and urinary systems were least investigated. CONCLUSIONS Substantial knowledge gaps exist in LMIC childhood cancer survivorship. No low-income country data were found. In middle-income countries, late effects were defined and assessed variably and limited by selection bias and small sample sizes. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS Survivors in LMICs can experience physical late effects of treatment, though additionally systematically collected data from survivor cohorts are needed to fill knowledge gaps.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The number of children surviving cancer in Africa is increasing. Knowledge about late effects of survivors is lacking. Our study maps literature regarding late effects of childhood cancer survivors in Africa. METHODS Scoping review was performed following JBI-guidelines. Systematic literature search was conducted in: Medline, Embase, African Index Medicus, Web of Science, Scopus, Psycinfo. Titles and abstracts were screened by two reviewers, followed by full-text analysis by the lead reviewer. RESULTS Sixty-eight studies were included for content analysis. Studies originated from 10 of 54 African countries. Most studies had retrospective study design, 2-5 years follow-up, solely chemotherapy as treatment modality, Egypt as country of origin. Fifty-three studies described physical, and seventeen studies described psychosocial late effects. CONCLUSION Literature concerning late effects is available from a limited number of African countries. Psychosocial domain lacks attention compared to the physical domain. More countries should report on this topic to prevent, identify and monitor late effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Childhood cancer survivors (CCS) have increased risk of premature cardiovascular disease. Whether they respond similarly to lifestyle changes for elevated blood pressure (BP), body mass index (BMI), and dyslipidemia to those without history of childhood cancer is unknown. PROCEDURE This retrospective cohort study included CCS and 3:1 age- and sex-matched controls treated at Boston Children's Hospital Preventive Cardiology (2010-2019) using lifestyle management based on National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) guidelines. Change in BMI, BP, and lipids were analyzed. RESULTS We included 52 CCS and 162 controls with a median age of approximately 16 years. More CCS (84.3%) had elevated baseline fasting triglycerides (TG) than controls (49.4%) (p < .001). More CCS (62.5%) also had abnormal baseline high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) compared to controls (35.2%) (p = .001). Baseline BMI, BP, total cholesterol (TC), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were similar between groups. Over 15 weeks [IQR: 10.5-26], CCS had greater decrease in TG than controls (72.5 vs. 17 mg/dl decrease, p = .095). BP improved in 5% of CCS versus 38% of controls (p = .008). For both, BMI, TC, LDL-C, and HDL-C remained stable. CCS with stem cell transplantation (SCT) had a TC increase of 5% (6 mg/dl) compared to a decrease of 9% (19 mg/dl) among CCS without SCT (p = .02). CONCLUSIONS CCS demonstrated similar improvement in lipids, but impaired BP lowering in response to lifestyle management compared to controls. Further prospective studies are needed to determine if earlier pharmaceutical treatment is warranted in this higher risk population and for the long-term risk reductions of these approaches.

Abstract
Cancer is a prominent cause of death worldwide in the pediatric population. Since childhood cancer is not possible to prevent, it is essential to focus on a prompt and correct diagnosis followed by effective, evidence-based therapy with individualized supportive care. Given the enhancement of childhood cancer management over the past decades, survival rate has significantly improved, thus leading to the progression of several late effects, including metabolic derangements. These metabolic imbalances are associated with the underlying disease and the cancer treatments. As a result, the metabolic state may contribute to a high risk of cardiovascular morbidity and premature mortality among childhood cancer survivors. This review aims to summarize the potential pathophysiological mechanisms linked to the risk of diabetes and metabolic syndrome and screening recommendations. Further investigations are needed to clarify the underlying mechanisms of such metabolic abnormalities and to improve long-term cardiometabolic survival among these patients.

Abstract
Introducción: a nivel mundial, cada año cerca de 300.000 niños entre 0 y 19 años son diagnosticados con cáncer. El porcentaje de supervivientes va en aumento, llegando a 80 % en países desarrollados y 60 % en América Latina. Sin embargo, la expectativa y la calidad de vida de estas personas pueden verse comprometidas ante el desarrollo de cardiotoxicidad, un efecto adverso asociado al uso de algunos agentes antineoplásicos, como los antracíclicos.Objetivo: resaltar los aspectos clínicos relevantes para la prevención, detección oportuna, tratamiento y seguimiento de la cardiotoxicidad secundaria a la administración de antraciclinas durante la infancia.Síntesis de contenido: reflexión teórica que presenta consideraciones clínicas relevantes para guiar las acciones de enfermería y del equipo multidisciplinario en la atención y el cuidado de la salud cardiovascular de los supervivientes de cáncer a cualquier edad. Es importante destacar que en población pediátrica la única estrategia efectiva de prevención primaria para cardiotoxicidad por antraciclinas es la administración de dexrazoxano, mientras que la prevención secundaria debe incluir detección oportuna, control y seguimiento de las alteraciones de la función cardíaca y de los factores de riesgo cardiovascular. Por su parte, la prevención terciaria se centra en el control de la enfermedad y el manejo farmacológico. Conclusiones: no existe un tratamiento estándar para la cardiotoxicidad inducida por quimioterapia o radioterapia, siendo el objetivo principal de este tipo de tratamientos prevenir o retrasar la remodelación del ventrículo izquierdo. Todos los supervivientes requieren seguimiento vitalicio y búsqueda activa de signos de cardiotoxicidad, siendo fundamental la acción conjunta de diferentes profesionales y la consolidación de los servicios de cardio-oncología.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cancer diagnosis, treatment side effects and physical inactivity can lead to reduced muscle strength. Patients undergoing acute treatment experience many burdens that can restrict their mobility and autonomy, leading to limited independence and loss of resources to cope with everyday tasks. In this work, we analyse the status quo and potential influencing factors for the accomplishment of activities of daily living (ADLs) shortly after cancer diagnosis. METHODS We recruited participants ages 4-18 years diagnosed with acute leukaemia or non-Hodgkin lymphoma. For the baseline analysis, we assessed (1) physical function limitations using the Activities Scale for Kids©, (2) exercise-related ADLs simulated with the Functional ADL Screen, (3) motor performance using the Motor Performance in Paediatric Oncology test and (4) physical activity (PA) level measured using an accelerometer. RESULTS We conducted the baseline assessment 19.2 ± 12.6 days post-diagnosis in 41 patients. All participants reported functional limitations in ADLs and PA. Motor performance was reduced for all abilities. Cumulative steroid dose was negatively correlated with hand grip strength (r = -0.50, p = 0.009). CONCLUSION Shortly after diagnosis of paediatric cancer, patients experience various physical impairments that can be counteracted with regular, instructed exercise interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Computed tomography (CT) is often used to investigate muscle and fat mass in adult patients with cancer. However, this method has rarely been used in the pediatric cancer population. The present retrospective study aimed to investigate changes in body composition using CT during treatment in children with neuroblastoma. PROCEDURE CT images of 29 patients with high-risk neuroblastoma were retrospectively analyzed at diagnosis and longitudinally during treatment. The cross-sectional area of skeletal muscle, intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT), visceral adipose tissue (VAT), and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and skeletal muscle density at the level of the third lumbar vertebra were examined. To correct for height, cross-sectional areas were divided by height in meters squared. A linear mixed model was estimated to investigate changes in body composition over time. RESULTS A small increase in skeletal muscle (p = .029), skeletal muscle density (p = .002), and IMAT (p < .001) was found. Furthermore, a rapid increase in VAT (p < .001) and SAT (p = .001) was seen early during treatment with the highest volumes after six cycles of chemotherapy. CONCLUSIONS CT scans obtained during standard care provide insight into the direction and timing of changes in skeletal muscle and different types of adipose tissue in childhood cancer patients. Future research is needed regarding the consequences of the rapid increase of VAT and SAT early during treatment.

The Burden of Late Effects and Related Risk Factors in Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Survivors: A Scoping Review. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13194870. [PMID: 34638350 PMCID: PMC8508204 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13194870] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2021] [Revised: 09/18/2021] [Accepted: 09/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary It is unclear what the risk of negative health outcomes is after cancer during adolescence and young adulthood. We conducted a review to understand the risk of second cancers, chronic conditions, and death in adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer survivors and found factors that increase the risk. In total, 652 studies were identified, of which 106 were included in the review: 23 for second cancers, 34 for chronic conditions, and 54 for deaths. The number of included studies increased over time, from four studies in 2010 to 17 in 2020. The studies found that AYA cancer survivors are at an increased risk of second cancers, chronic conditions, and deaths. In particular, the following factors increased risk: radiation exposure for second cancers; younger attained age and earlier calendar period of diagnosis for chronic conditions; and non-Hispanic Black or Hispanic, low socioeconomic status, and earlier calendar period of diagnosis for deaths. Abstract Risk factors associated with late effects in survivors of adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer are poorly understood. We conducted a systematic scoping review to identify cohort studies published in English from 2010–2020 that included: (1) cancer survivors who were AYAs (age 15–39 years) at diagnosis and (2) outcomes of subsequent malignant neoplasms (SMNs), chronic conditions, and/or late mortality (>5 years postdiagnosis). There were 652 abstracts identified and, ultimately, 106 unique studies were included, of which 23, 34, and 54 studies related to the risk of SMNs, chronic conditions, and mortality, respectively. Studies investigating late effects among survivors of any primary cancer reported that AYA cancer survivors were at higher risk of SMN, chronic conditions, and all-cause mortality compared to controls. There was an indication that the following factors increased risk: radiation exposure (n = 3) for SMNs; younger attained age (n = 4) and earlier calendar period of diagnosis (n = 3) for chronic conditions; and non-Hispanic Black or Hispanic (n = 5), low socioeconomic status (n = 3), and earlier calendar period of diagnosis (n = 4) for late mortality. More studies including the full AYA age spectrum, treatment data, and results stratified by age, sex, and cancer type are needed to advance knowledge about late effects in AYA cancer survivors.

Abstract
CONTEXT Although stages of reproductive aging for women in the general population are well described by STRAW+10 criteria, this is largely unknown for female adolescent and young adult cancer survivors (AYA survivors). OBJECTIVE This work aimed to evaluate applying STRAW + 10 criteria in AYA survivors using bleeding patterns with and without endocrine biomarkers, and to assess how cancer treatment gonadotoxicity is related to reproductive aging stage. DESIGN The sample (n = 338) included AYA survivors from the Reproductive Window Study cohort. Menstrual bleeding data and dried-blood spots for antimüllerian hormone (AMH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) measurements (Ansh DBS enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays) were used for reproductive aging stage assessment. Cancer treatment data were abstracted from medical records. RESULTS Among participants, mean age 34.0 ± 4.5 years and at a mean of 6.9 ± 4.6 years since cancer treatment, the most common cancers were lymphomas (31%), breast (23%), and thyroid (17%). Twenty-nine percent were unclassifiable by STRAW + 10 criteria, occurring more frequently in the first 2 years from treatment. Most unclassifiable survivors exhibited bleeding patterns consistent with the menopausal transition, but had reproductive phase AMH and/or FSH levels. For classifiable survivors (48% peak reproductive, 30% late reproductive, 12% early transition, 3% late transition, and 7% postmenopause), endocrine biomarkers distinguished among peak, early, and late stages within the reproductive and transition phases. Gonadotoxic treatments were associated with more advanced stages. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrate a novel association between gonadotoxic treatments and advanced stages of reproductive aging. Without endocrine biomarkers, bleeding pattern alone can misclassify AYA survivors into more or less advanced stages. Moreover, a large proportion of AYA survivors exhibited combinations of endocrine biomarkers and bleeding patterns that do not fit the STRAW + 10 criteria, suggesting the need for modified staging for this population.

Body Composition, Metabolic Health, and Functional Impairment among Adults Treated for Abdominal and Pelvic Tumors during Childhood. Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev 2020; 29:1750-1758. [PMID: 32796078 PMCID: PMC7721344 DOI: 10.1158/1055-9965.epi-19-1321] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2019] [Revised: 02/12/2020] [Accepted: 06/18/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to characterize body composition, metabolic impairments, and physical performance among survivors of pediatric abdominal and pelvic solid tumors. METHODS Participants included 431 survivors of abdominal or pelvic tumors [median attained age = 29.9 (range: 18.7-55.1) years]. Relative lean mass and fat mass were assessed with dual X-ray absorptiometry. Metabolic outcomes [insulin resistance (IR), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein, and triglycerides] were based on laboratory values and medication usage. General linear regression evaluated associations between treatment and lifestyle with body composition; binomial regression evaluated associations between body composition and metabolic outcomes and physical performance. RESULTS Lean mass was lower than values from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) in males (Z-score = -0.67 ± 1.27; P < 0.001) and females (Z-score = -0.72 ± 1.28; P < 0.001). Higher cumulative abdominal and pelvic radiation doses were associated with lower lean mass among males [abdominal: β = -0.22 (SE) ± 0.07; P = 0.002 and pelvic: β = -0.23 ± 0.07; P = 0.002] and females (abdominal: β = -0.30 ± 0.09; P = 0.001 and pelvic: β = -0.16 ± 0.08; P = 0.037). Prevalence of IR (40.6% vs. 33.8%; P = 0.006), low HDL (28.9% vs. 33.5%; P = 0.046), and high triglycerides (18.4% vs. 10.0%; P < 0.001) was increased among survivors relative to NHANES. Compared with survivors with normal/high lean mass and normal/low fat mass, survivors with normal/high lean mass and high fat mass had an increased risk of IR (P < 0.001), low HDL (P < 0.001), reduced quadriceps strength at 60°/second (P < 0.001) and 300°/second (P < 0.001), and reduced distance covered in the 6-minute walk (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Abdominal/pelvic radiotherapy is associated with body composition changes that can adversely influence metabolic outcomes and performance status among survivors. IMPACT Interventions targeting body composition may facilitate management of cardiovascular disease risk in this population.

Abstract
Medication-induced hyperglycemia is a frequently encountered clinical problem in children. The intent of this review of medications that cause hyperglycemia and their mechanisms of action is to help guide clinicians in prevention, screening and management of pediatric drug-induced hyperglycemia. We conducted a thorough literature review in PubMed and Cochrane libraries from inception to July 2019. Although many pharmacotherapies that have been associated with hyperglycemia in adults are also used in children, pediatric-specific data on medication-induced hyperglycemia are scarce. The mechanisms of hyperglycemia may involve β cell destruction, decreased insulin secretion and/or sensitivity, and excessive glucose influx. While some medications (eg, glucocorticoids, L-asparaginase, tacrolimus) are markedly associated with high risk of hyperglycemia, the association is less clear in others (eg, clonidine, hormonal contraceptives, amiodarone). In addition to the drug and its dose, patient characteristics, such as obesity or family history of diabetes, affect a child's risk of developing hyperglycemia. Identification of pediatric patients with increased risk of developing hyperglycemia, creating strategies for risk reduction, and treating hyperglycemia in a timely manner may improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
Risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), common in childhood cancer survivors (CCSs), may be affected by diet. We assessed sodium (Na) and potassium (K) intake, estimated from food frequency questionnaires (FFQs) and morning urine spots, and its associations with cardiovascular risk in CCSs. We stratified CCSs into three risk profiles based on (A) personal history (CVD, CVD risk factors, or CVD risk-free), (B) body mass index (obese, overweight, or normal/underweight), and (C) cardiotoxic treatment (anthracyclines and/or chest irradiation, or neither). We obtained an FFQ from 802 and sent a spot urine sample collection kit to 212, of which 111 (52%) returned. We estimated Na intake 2.9 g/day based on spot urine and 2.8 g/day based on FFQ; the estimated K intake was 1.6 g/day (spot urine) and 2.7 g/day (FFQ). CCSs with CVD risk factors had a slightly higher Na intake (3.3 g/day), than CCSs risk free (2.9 g/day) or with CVD (2.7 g/day, p = 0.017), and obese participants had higher Na intake (4.2 g/day) than normal/underweight CCSs (2.7 g/day, p < 0.001). Daily Na intake was above, and daily K intake below, the national recommended levels. Adult survivors of childhood cancer need dietary assistance to reduce Na and increase K intake.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We evaluated the risk of cardiac death in patients with prior cancer diagnoses and compared risk by cancer type and ethnicity in a large US population. METHOD Utilizing the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database, data on patients with a cancer diagnosis between 2000 and 2014 were obtained. We calculated the standardized mortality ratio (SMR) of cardiac death after a cancer diagnosis and the excess risk per 10,000 person-years. We stratified the analysis according to the time interval between cancer and cardiac events, cancer site, cancer stage, and race. RESULTS A total of 4,671,989 patients with a cancer diagnosis were included, of which 163,255 died due to cardiac causes within 10 years of diagnosis. We found a significantly higher rate of cardiac death for cancer patients [SMR=1.16, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.15-1.16] compared to the general population. When observed for each cancer site, the highest SMR was after a diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (SMR=2.58, 95% CI 2.45-2.72), pancreatic cancer (SMR=2.36, 95% CI 2.25-2.47), and lung cancer (SMR=2.30, 95% CI 2.27-2.34). Patients with metastatic disease had a higher rate of cardiac death (SMR=2.16, 95% CI 2.13-2.19). When stratified by ethnicity, SMR for cardiac death was 1.76, 2.28, 3.68, 2.65, and 1.84 for whites, blacks, American Indians/Alaska Natives, Asians/Pacific Islanders, and Hispanics, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Cancer patients are more vulnerable to cardiac death than the general population, especially those with nonwhite ethnicity; liver, lung, and pancreatic cancers; and history of metastasis. Healthcare providers should be aware of this risk and pay particular attention to the highest-risk groups.

Abstract
Introduction: Despite decreasing mortality in pediatric oncology as a result of standardized treatment protocols, the high number of functional and cardiovascular late sequelae due to anticarcinogenic therapy remains unchanged. The aim of this study was to further assess functional limitations in Health-related Physical Fitness (HRPF) and cardiovascular risk by means of markers of arterial stiffness in Childhood Cancer Survivors (CCS). Materials and Methods: Between March 2016 and August 2017 a total of 92 CCS (Age 12.5 ± 4.2 years, 43 girls) were recruited from their routine follow-up outpatient visit. HRPF was assessed using five Fitnessgram® tasks. Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV) along with peripheral and central blood pressure were assessed using oscillometric measurements performed by Mobil-O-Graph. Z-scores were used to compare the test results either to German reference values or to a recent healthy reference cohort. Results: In CCS, the HRPF was significantly reduced (z-score: −0.28 ± 1.01, p = 0.011) as compared to healthy peers. The peripheral Systolic Blood Pressure (pSBP) was significantly increased (z-score: 0.31 ± 1.11, p = 0.017) and the peripheral Diastolic Blood Pressure (pDBP) was decreased (z-score: −0.30 ± 1.25, p = 0.040), resulting in an increased pulse pressure. The PWV (p = 0.649) and cSBP (p = 0.408), were neither increased nor showed any association to HRPF. Discussion: CCS showed functional limitations in HRPF and an increased pulse pressure, which acts as an early onset parameter of arterial stiffness. Both a low HRPF and impaired hemodynamics are independent cardiovascular risk factors and needs to be taken into consideration in tertiary prevention of CCS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) survivors are at an increased risk of cardiovascular disease including arterial hypertension (AH). The objectives of this study were to assess the prevalence of AH using 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, explore characteristics of AH, and define risk factors for the development of AH in childhood ALL survivors. PATIENTS AND METHODS The study comprised 81 childhood ALL survivors (5 to 25 y of age) after a median follow-up time of 5 years. The control group consisted of 52 healthy children (5 to 17 y of age) without any known severe or chronic medical condition. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring was performed in all patients and controls. Serum lipids were measured in all patients and controls. RESULTS ALL survivors were more likely to have AH than controls (odds ratio, 2.47; 95% confidence interval, 1.08-5.63; P=0.0315). The mean time from ALL diagnosis until diagnosis of AH was 5.1±2.97 years. Day-time diastolic SDS and day-time mean arterial pressure SDS were significantly higher in ALL cohort compared with the controls (-0.3±1.43 vs. -0.76±0.95; P=0.04 and 1.44±1.64 vs. 0.92±1.03; P=0.047). Childhood ALL survivors with AH were more likely to be systolic extreme dippers and reverse systolic/diastolic dippers compared with those with normal blood pressure (P<0.05). There was no association of AH with leukemia subtype, leukemia risk group, sex, central nervous system irradiation, and obesity. CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of AH in childhood ALL survivors may be as high as 37%. We recommend regular monitoring of blood pressure in childhood ALL survivors early in the follow-up.

Abstract
Most of the pooled analyses and reviews reported an association between radiotherapy for childhood cancer and an increased thyroid cancer risk. Up to now this article presents the first systematic literature review on this association combined with a critical assessment of the methodological quality of the included articles. PubMed and Web of Science databases were searched for relevant articles until May 2016. We included peer-reviewed cohort and case-control studies that investigated an association between radiotherapy for childhood cancer and the occurrence of subsequent thyroid cancer. A systematic overview is presented for the included studies. We identified 17 retrospective cohort studies, and four nested case-control studies, representing 100,818 subjects. The age range at first cancer diagnosis was 0-25.2 years. Considerable variability was found regarding study sizes, study design, treatment strategies, dose information, and follow-up periods. 20 of the 21 identified studies showed increased thyroid cancer risks associated with childhood radiation exposure. The large majority showed an increased relative risk or odds ratio confirming the association between radiotherapy and thyroid cancer although the variation in results was large. Additionally to a pooled analysis that has been published recently, we systematically included 17 further studies, which allowed us to cover information from countries that were not covered by large-scale childhood cancer survivor studies. The methodological limitations of existing studies and inconsistencies in findings across studies yielded a large study heterogeneity, which made a detailed comparison of study results difficult. There is a need to strengthen standardisation for reporting.

Long-term risk of cardiovascular mortality in lymphoma survivors: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Cancer Med 2018; 7:4801-4813. [PMID: 30112841 PMCID: PMC6143935 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.1572] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2018] [Revised: 04/30/2018] [Accepted: 05/01/2018] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Cardiovascular disease has been identified as one of the late complications of cancer therapy. The purpose of this study was to quantify the long-term risk of cardiovascular mortality among lymphoma survivors relative to that of the general population. A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted. Articles were identified in November 2016 by searching EMBASE, MEDLINE, and CINAHL databases. Observational studies were included if they assessed cardiovascular mortality in patients with lymphoma who survived for at least 5 years from time of diagnosis or if they had a median follow-up of 10 years. A pooled standardized mortality ratio (SMR) was estimated using a DerSimonian and Laird random-effects model. The Q and I2 statistics were used to assess heterogeneity. Funnel plots and Begg's and Egger's tests were used to evaluate publication bias. Of the 7450 articles screened, 27 studies were included in the systematic review representing 46 829 Hodgkin and 14 764 non-Hodgkin lymphoma survivors. The pooled number of deaths attributable to cardiovascular disease among Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin disease was estimated to be 7.31 (95% CI: 5.29-10.10; I2 = 95.4%) and 5.35 (95% CI: 2.55-11.24; I2 = 94.0%) times that of the general population, respectively. This association was greater among Hodgkin lymphoma survivors treated before the age of 21 (pooled SMR = 13.43; 95% CI: 9.22-19.57; I2 = 78.9%). There was a high degree of heterogeneity and a high risk of bias due to confounding in this body of literature. Lymphoma survivors have an increased risk of fatal cardiovascular events compared to the general population and should be targeted for cardiovascular screening and prevention campaigns.

Abstract
Treatment-related side effects are a major clinical problem in cancer treatment. They lead to reduced compliance to therapy as well as increased morbidity and mortality. Well-known are the sequelae of chemotherapy on the heart, especially in childhood cancer survivors. Therefore, measures to mitigate the adverse events of cancer therapy may improve health and quality of life in patients with cancer, both in the short and long term. The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) affects all hallmarks of cancer, and blockage of the RAS is associated with an improved outcome in several cancer types. There is also increasing evidence that inhibition of the RAS might be able to alleviate or even prevent certain types of cancer treatment-related adverse effects. In this review, we summarize the potential of RAS inhibitors to mitigate cancer treatment-related adverse events, with a special emphasis on chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity, radiation injury, and arterial hypertension.

Abstract
PURPOSE Few population-based studies have focused on cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in adolescent and young adult (AYA; 15-39 years) cancer survivors and none have considered whether CVD risk differs by sociodemographic factors. METHODS Analyses focused on 79,176 AYA patients diagnosed with 14 first primary cancers in 1996-2012 and surviving > 2 years after diagnosis with follow-up through 2014. Data were obtained from the California Cancer Registry and State hospital discharge data. CVD included coronary artery disease, heart failure, and stroke. The cumulative incidence of developing CVD accounted for the competing risk of death. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression evaluated factors associated with CVD and the impact of CVD on mortality. RESULTS Overall, 2249 (2.8%) patients developed CVD. Survivors of central nervous system cancer (7.3%), acute lymphoid leukemia (6.9%), acute myeloid leukemia (6.8%), and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (4.1%) had the highest 10-year CVD incidence. In multivariable models, African-Americans (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.55, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.33-1.81; versus non-Hispanic Whites), those with public/no health insurance (HR = 1.78, 95% CI = 1.61-1.96; versus private) and those who resided in lower socioeconomic status neighborhoods had a higher CVD risk. These sociodemographic differences in CVD incidence were apparent across most cancer sites. The risk of death was increased by eightfold or higher among AYAs who developed CVD. CONCLUSION While cancer therapies are known to increase the risk of CVD, this study additionally shows that CVD risk varies by sociodemographic factors. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS The identification and mitigation of CVD risk factors in these subgroups may improve long-term patient outcomes.

Abstract
Background: Hypertension potentiates cardiovascular risk in survivors of childhood cancer previously exposed to cardiotoxic therapies, so it is important to determine the prevalence and risk factors for hypertensive blood pressure in this high-risk group.Methods: Participants included 3,016 adult 10-year survivors of childhood cancer who had resting blood pressure measurements performed at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital (Memphis, TN). We characterized the blood pressure status of participants, calculated standardized prevalence ratios based on U.S. population rates, and examined demographic and treatment factors associated with hypertensive blood pressure using logistic regression.Results: The age-specific cumulative prevalence of hypertension in survivors increased sharply with age, exceeding 70% by age 50, and was substantially higher in all diagnosis groups than expected on the basis of age-, sex-, race/ethnicity-, and BMI-specific population rates. Specific cancer treatments were not significantly associated with hypertension, with the exception of nephrectomy (OR, 1.68; 95% confidence interval, 1.11-2.53). Previously undiagnosed hypertensive blood pressure was identified in 8% of survivors, and uncontrolled hypertension in 22% of those with a previous hypertension diagnosis. In a subset (n = 1,185) with longitudinal blood pressure measurements (mean interval, 3.6 years), 5% and 21% of participants with previously normal blood pressure developed hypertensive and prehypertensive blood pressure, respectively.Conclusions: Survivors of childhood cancer have a higher prevalence of hypertension compared with the general population, and many have uncontrolled hypertension that may exacerbate treatment-related cardiovascular risks.Impact: Our results suggest enhanced clinical attention to blood pressure status is warranted in all survivors, regardless of diagnosis or cancer treatment.
