Abstract
BACKGROUND Nutritional prehabilitation may improve haematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) outcomes, although little evidence exists. The present study aimed to understand healthcare professional (HCP) perceptions of prehabilitation and nutritional care pre-HCT in UK centres. METHODS An anonymous online survey (developed and refined via content experts and piloting) was administered via email to multidisciplinary HCPs in 39 UK adult centres, between July 2021 and June 2022. Data are presented as proportions of responses. Routine provision denotes that care was provided >70% of time. RESULTS Seventy-seven percent (n = 66) of HCPs, representing 61.5% (n = 24) of UK adult HCT centres, responded. All HCPs supported prehabilitation, proposing feasible implementation between induction chemotherapy (60.4%; n = 40) and first HCT clinic (83.3%; n = 55). Only 12.5% (n = 3) of centres had a dedicated prehabilitation service. Nutrition (87.9%; n = 58), emotional wellbeing (92.4%; n = 61) and exercise (81.8%; n = 54) were considered very important constituents. HCPs within half of the HCT centres (n = 12 centres) reported routine use of nutrition screening pre-HCT with a validated tool; 66.7% of HCPs (n = 36) reported using the malnutrition universal screening tool (MUST). Sixty-two percent (n = 41) of HCPs reported those at risk, received nutritional assessments, predominantly by dietitians (91.6%; n = 22) using the dietetic care process (58.3%; n = 14). Body mass index (BMI) was the most frequently reported body composition measure used by HCPs (70.2%, n = 33). Of 59 respondents, non-dietitians most routinely provided dietary advice pre-HCT (82.4%; n = 28 vs. 68%; n = 17, p = 0.2); including high-energy/protein/fat and neutropenic diet advice. Prophylactic enteral feeding pre-HCT was rare, indicated by low BMI and significant unintentional weight loss. Just under half (n = 25 of 59, 42.4%) HCPs reported exercise advice was given routinely pre-HCT. CONCLUSIONS Nutrition and prehabilitation pre-HCT are considered important and deliverable by HCPs, but current provision in UK centres is limited and inconsistent.

Abstract
As hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and cellular therapy expand to new indications and international access improves, the number of HCTs performed annually continues to rise. Parallel improvements in HCT techniques and supportive care entails more patients surviving long term, creating further emphasis on survivorship needs. Survivors are at risk for developing late complications secondary to pretransplantation, peritransplantation, and post-transplantation exposures and other underlying risk factors. Guidelines for screening and preventive practices for HCT survivors were originally published in 2006 and then updated in 2012. An international group of experts was convened to review the contemporary literature and update the recommendations while considering the changing practices of HCT and cellular therapy. This review provides updated pediatric and adult survivorship guidelines for HCT and cellular therapy. The contributory role of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) to the development of late effects is discussed, but cGVHD management is not covered in detail. These guidelines emphasize the special needs of patients with distinct underlying HCT indications or comorbidities (eg, hemoglobinopathies, older adults) but do not replace more detailed group-, disease-, or condition-specific guidelines. Although these recommendations should be applicable to the vast majority of HCT recipients, resource constraints may limit their implementation in some settings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The American Heart Association (AHA), in conjunction with the National Institutes of Health, annually reports the most up-to-date statistics related to heart disease, stroke, and cardiovascular risk factors, including core health behaviors (smoking, physical activity, nutrition, sleep, and obesity) and health factors (cholesterol, blood pressure, glucose control, and metabolic syndrome) that contribute to cardiovascular health. The AHA Heart Disease and Stroke Statistical Update presents the latest data on a range of major clinical heart and circulatory disease conditions (including stroke, brain health, complications of pregnancy, kidney disease, congenital heart disease, rhythm disorders, sudden cardiac arrest, subclinical atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, cardiomyopathy, heart failure, valvular disease, venous thromboembolism, and peripheral artery disease) and the associated outcomes (including quality of care, procedures, and economic costs). METHODS The AHA, through its Epidemiology and Prevention Statistics Committee, continuously monitors and evaluates sources of data on heart disease and stroke in the United States and globally to provide the most current information available in the annual Statistical Update with review of published literature through the year before writing. The 2024 AHA Statistical Update is the product of a full year's worth of effort in 2023 by dedicated volunteer clinicians and scientists, committed government professionals, and AHA staff members. The AHA strives to further understand and help heal health problems inflicted by structural racism, a public health crisis that can significantly damage physical and mental health and perpetuate disparities in access to health care, education, income, housing, and several other factors vital to healthy lives. This year's edition includes additional global data, as well as data on the monitoring and benefits of cardiovascular health in the population, with an enhanced focus on health equity across several key domains. RESULTS Each of the chapters in the Statistical Update focuses on a different topic related to heart disease and stroke statistics. CONCLUSIONS The Statistical Update represents a critical resource for the lay public, policymakers, media professionals, clinicians, health care administrators, researchers, health advocates, and others seeking the best available data on these factors and conditions.

Abstract
Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) encompass pivotal cardiovascular outcomes such as myocardial infarction, unstable angina, and cardiovascular-related mortality. Patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD) exhibit specific cardiovascular risk factors during the treatment, which can escalate the likelihood of cardiovascular events. Hence, the prediction and key factor analysis of MACE have assumed paramount significance for peritoneal dialysis patients. Current pathological methodologies for prognosis prediction are not only costly but also cumbersome in effectively processing electronic health records (EHRs) data with high dimensionality, heterogeneity, and time series. Therefore in this study, we propose the CVEformer, an attention-based neural network designed to predict MACE and analyze risk factors. CVEformer leverages the self-attention mechanism to capture temporal correlations among time series variables, allowing for weighted integration of variables and estimation of the probability of MACE. CVEformer first captures the correlations among heterogeneous variables through attention scores. Then, it analyzes the correlations within the time series data to identify key risk variables and predict the probability of MACE. When trained and evaluated on data from a large cohort of peritoneal dialysis patients across multiple centers, CVEformer outperforms existing models in terms of predictive performance.

Abstract
In aggregate, the available data suggest autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) has potent, durable efficacy to treat relapsing multiple sclerosis (MS). Safety issues and financial costs are significant but largely associated with the procedure itself. AHSCT is a reasonable option for patients with highly active relapsing MS and an inadequate response to the available disease therapies. The key question is where to place AHSCT in the overall relapsing MS algorithm relative to other high-efficacy therapies. Ongoing randomized trials will better characterize the benefit and risk of AHSCT compared with currently available high-efficacy disease therapies.

Abstract
Background The long-term risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) and clinical models that predict this risk remain understudied in blood or marrow transplantation (BMT) recipients. Objectives This study sought to examine the risk of CHD after BMT and identify the associated risk factors. Methods Participants included patients transplanted between 1974 and 2014 at City of Hope, University of Minnesota, or University of Alabama at Birmingham and those who survived ≥2 years after BMT. Multivariable logistic regression models assessed CHD risk in BMT survivors compared with a sibling cohort. A self-reported questionnaire and medical records provided information regarding sociodemographics, comorbidities, and therapeutic exposures, which were used to develop a CHD risk prediction nomogram. Results Overall, 6,677 BMT recipients participated; the mean age at BMT was 43.9 ± 17.7 years, 58.3% were male, and 73.3% were non-Hispanic Whites. The median length of follow-up was 6.9 years (range: 2-46.2 years) from BMT. CHD was reported in 249 participants, with a 20-year cumulative incidence of 5.45% ± 0.39%. BMT survivors had a 1.6-fold greater odds of CHD compared with a sibling cohort (95% CI: 1.09-2.40). A nomogram was then developed to predict the risk of CHD at 10 and 20 years after BMT including age at BMT (HR: 1.06/y; 95% CI: 1.04-1.08), male sex (HR: 1.89; 95% CI: 1.15-3.11), a history of smoking (HR: 1.61; 95% CI: 1.01-2.58), diabetes (HR: 2.45; 95% CI: 1.23-4.89), hypertension (HR: 2.02; 95% CI: 1.15-3.54), arrhythmia (HR: 1.90; 95% CI: 0.89-4.06), and pre-BMT chest radiation (yes vs no: HR: 2.83; 95% CI: 1.20-6.67; unknown vs no: HR: 0.88; 95% CI: 0.34-2.28). The C-statistic was 0.77 in the test set (95% CI: 0.70-0.83). Conclusions This study identified BMT recipients at high risk for CHD, informing targeted screening for early detection and aggressive control of risk factors.

Abstract
Despite the rapidly evolving treatment landscape for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) remains an important and potentially curative treatment option for many high-risk AML patients. Cardiovascular disease is an important competing risk throughout allo-HCT and a key driver of morbidity and mortality long after treatment. Cardio-oncology is a new discipline in cardiology which provides multidisciplinary care and expertise to complex cancer patients with the aims of optimizing cardiovascular health plus monitoring and treating potential cardiotoxicity related to cancer treatments. As allogeneic HCT techniques get more sophisticated there will be an increase in transplant eligible older patients with a rise in comorbidities including established cardiovascular disease highlighting the need for close collaboration with cardio-oncology specialists from the time of diagnosis through late survivorship.

Abstract
Increasing use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) and improvements in recipient outcomes have led to a steady increase in the number of allogeneic HCT survivors. In addition to complications specific to the transplantation process, HCT recipients are at increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD) and subsequent neoplasm (SN). Strict surveillance of risk factors for CVD and cancer in the general population is recommended as an essential component of long-term follow-up (LTFU) care of HCT survivors, but implementation of this has been suboptimal. Various models for improving the provision of survivorship care have been proposed, including a hybrid/combined care approach wherein the HCT provider manages transplantation-specific complications and the primary care physician (PCP) provides general medical care, including surveillance and aggressive management of CVD risk factors and screening for SN. This model also offers a practical approach to LTFU care for HCT survivors who live at a distance from the HCT center, which is a reality for many recipients of HCT at The Ottawa Hospital (TOH). As the success of such a hybrid approach to survivorship care depends on the engagement of HCT recipients with their PCP and compliance with recommended general population surveillance, the aim of the present study was to assess the rates of PCP attendance and adherence to recommended preventive medicine interventions in the years immediately before and after HCT. We hypothesized that rates would be suboptimal and planned to use these results as a baseline for an educational initiative aimed at increasing awareness of HCT recipients and their PCPs about embracing preventive survivorship care. This was a single-center cohort study of allogeneic HCT recipients who underwent transplantation at TOH with linkage to population-based health administrative data. Published clinical practice guidelines were used to define recommended screening for CVD risk factors and cancer. The rates of annual PCP visits and utilization of recommended preventive care interventions in the 5 years before and after HCT were calculated for all eligible patients. Between 2014 and 2020, 409 patients with provincial health care coverage underwent allogeneic HCT at TOH. The median patient age was 51 years (range, 15 to 73 years), with a male predominance (60.9%). Approximately one-quarter of recipients did not attend a PCP visit in the 5 years before and after transplantation, and this proportion increased to one- third in the fifth year post-HCT. Among those recipients who were eligible, only 20% to 25% underwent recommended screening for dyslipidemia and diabetes. Cancer screening rates were also low, at 16% to 18% for cervical cancer, 18% to 22% for colon cancer, and 30% to 31% for breast cancer. These results highlight the need to increase awareness of HCT recipients and their PCPs about the risk of developing CVD and SN post-transplantation and to emphasize the potential to mitigate this risk by adhering to recommendations for surveillance to enable prompt intervention. Patient education should incorporate this information and empower HCT survivors to actively engage in their follow-up care and optimize their long-term outcomes.

Abstract
Background Fifty years of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) has ushered in an exciting era of cellular therapy and has led to enormous progress in improving the outcomes of patients with both malignant and non-malignant hematologic disease. As the survival of transplanted patients has increased, so has the recognition of long-term complications related to this therapy. Purpose The goal of this review is to highlight some of the most common long-term complications of HCT. Data sources To this end, we have conducted a review of the published literature on the long-term complications of HCT encompassing the past 50 years. Study selection We have endeavored to include long-term complications reported in research articles, case series and case reports, reviews, and abstracts. We have focused primarily on adult allogeneic HCT, but have included some data from studies of pediatric allogeneic HCT as well. We have also prioritized the literature published in the last 15 years. Data extraction Key data supporting the onset and prevalence of the most common long-term complications was extracted. Limitations While the list of long-term complications extracted and reported was comprehensive, it was not exhaustive. Conclusions We have endeavored to highlight some of the most common long-term complications of HCT, the recognition and management of which constitutes an important part of HCT survivorship care.

Abstract
Dyslipidemia is one of the complications after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), and it is often underestimated and undertreated. Dyslipidemia in allo-HSCT recipients has been confirmed to be associated with endocrine dysfunction, acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD and cGVHD), immunosuppressive agent application, etc. However, few studies have illustrated the accurate molecular signaling pathways involved in dyslipidemia, and there are no standard guidelines for dyslipidemia management after HSCT. This review will discuss the pathogenesis of dyslipidemia, especially the association with aGVHD and/or cGVHD. Comprehensive treatment methods for dyslipidemia after HSCT will also be summarized.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Myeloablative Total Body Irradiation (TBI) is an important modality in conditioning for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), especially in children with high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). TBI practices are heterogeneous and institution-specific. Since TBI is associated with multiple late adverse effects, recommendations may help to standardize practices and improve the outcome versus toxicity ratio for children. MATERIAL AND METHODS The European Society for Paediatric Oncology (SIOPE) Radiotherapy TBI Working Group together with ESTRO experts conducted a literature search and evaluation regarding myeloablative TBI techniques and toxicities in children. Findings were discussed in bimonthly virtual meetings and consensus recommendations were established. RESULTS Myeloablative TBI in HSCT conditioning is mostly performed for high-risk ALL patients or patients with recurring hematologic malignancies. TBI is discouraged in children <3-4 years old because of increased toxicity risk. Publications regarding TBI are mostly retrospective studies with level III-IV evidence. Preferential TBI dose in children is 12-14.4 Gy in 1.6-2 Gy fractions b.i.d. Dose reduction should be considered for the lungs to <8 Gy, for the kidneys to ≤10 Gy, and for the lenses to <12 Gy, for dose rates ≥6 cGy/min. Highly conformal techniques i.e. TomoTherapy and VMAT TBI or Total Marrow (and/or Lymphoid) Irradiation as implemented in several centers, improve dose homogeneity and organ sparing, and should be evaluated in studies. CONCLUSIONS These ESTRO ACROP SIOPE recommendations provide expert consensus for conventional and highly conformal myeloablative TBI in children, as well as a supporting literature overview of TBI techniques and toxicities.

Abstract
Survival in cancer is continuously improving due to evolving oncological treatment. Therefore, cardiovascular short-term and long-term side effects gain crucial importance for overall outcome. Cardiotoxicity not only presents as heart failure, but also as treatment-resistant hypertension, acute coronary ischemia with plaque rupture or vasospasm, thromboembolism, arrhythmia, pulmonary hypertension, diastolic dysfunction, acute myocarditis and others. Recent recommendations have proposed baseline cardiac risk assessment and surveillance strategies. Major challenges are the availability of monitoring and imaging resources, including echocardiography with speckle tracking longitudinal strain (GLS), serum biomarkers such as natriuretic peptides (NT-proBNP) and highly sensitive cardiac troponins. This Austrian consensus encompasses cardiotoxicity occurrence in frequent antiproliferative cancer drugs, radiotherapy, immune checkpoint inhibitors and cardiac follow-up considerations in cancer survivors in the context of the Austrian healthcare setting. It is important to optimize cardiovascular risk factors and pre-existing cardiac diseases without delaying oncological treatment. If left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) deteriorates during cancer treatment (from >10% to <50%), or myocardial strain decreases (>15% change in GLS), early initiation of cardioprotective therapies (angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin or beta receptor blockers) is recommended, and LVEF should be reassessed before discontinuation. Lower LVEF cut-offs were recently shown to be feasible in breast cancer patients to enable optimal anticancer treatment. Interdisciplinary cardio-oncology cooperation is pivotal for optimal management of cancer patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is a treatment method for a wide range of malignant and non-malignant diseases. Infants constitute a distinct patient group, especially due to their organ immaturity and differences in drug metabolism. The present paper aims to analyse the short- and long-term outcomes after allo-HSCT in infants. MATERIAL AND METHODS In the study period, 67 patients under 12 months of age underwent allo-HSCT. This study is a retrospective analysis of patient medical records, in the form of paper and electronic documentation. RESULTS The probability of 5-year OS was 69% and 72% in patients with malignant and non-malignant diseases, respectively. The allo-HSCT from a matched donor was associated with improved OS in comparison to haploidentical donor (0.8 vs. 0.58%, p = 0.0425). The overall incidence of acute graft-vs.-host disease (aGVHD) was 59.3%, and grade III-IV aGVHD was diagnosed in 23% of patients. The 100-day non-relapse mortality (NRM) in the study cohort was 17.9%, while the 5-year NRM was 26.9%. Among the causes of NRM, infections occurred in 83.3% of patients, and aGVHD in 16.3% of individuals. Twenty-two children (32.8%) required hospitalization in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). The median length of PICU hospitalization was 6 days (range 1 to 12 days). Late sequelae diagnosed during post-transplant surveillance included ocular disorders in 26.8% of patients, cardiac complications in 4.4%, as well as endocrinopathy with short stature (<3rd percentile) in 37.2% and overt hypothyroidism in 35.4%. In the long-term perspective, 83.3% of survivors were able to attend a regular school. CONCLUSIONS Improvements in unrelated donor availability, and better supportive care resulted in better outcomes. Management of infant allo-HSCT recipients requires the formation of multi-disciplinary specialist teams. In addition, the role of parental empowerment must be acknowledged; for example, in speech therapy and rehabilitation.

Abstract
PURPOSE Many patients who undergo bone marrow transplantation (BMT) in adulthood experience unexplained chronic fatigue which can have a major impact on their health-related quality of life (QoL). Pre-BMT treatment regimens increase the risk of developing acquired growth hormone deficiency (GHD), which results in a clinical syndrome with decreased energy and has additionally been linked to metabolic syndrome. METHODS Using the gold-standard insulin hypoglycemic test (IHT), we evaluated the prevalence of GHD in 18 post-BMT adult patients with unexplained chronic fatigue, as well as the correlation between peak serum GH response and QoL scores, the metabolic syndrome, and insulin resistance. Peak serum GH cut-point less than 3.0 ug/L was used for the diagnosis of severe GHD. The Fatigue Severity Scale and Quality of Life in Adult GHD Assessment questionnaires were used to quantify fatigue symptoms. RESULTS The prevalence of severe GHD within this sample of 18 patients was 50%. A trend between lower peak serum GH response and higher fatigue and QoL-AGHDA scores was observed. CONCLUSIONS GHD may represent a remediable contributor to post-BMT chronic fatigue in adults, further studies are needed to evaluate the potential role of screening and GH replacement therapy in this vulnerable patient population. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS GHD may be a treatable explanation for disabling post-BMT fatigue pending results of intervention studies.

Abstract
Background Long-term survivors of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) are at a substantial risk of developing medical late effects. We aimed to determine the incidence of metabolic syndrome (MS), cardiovascular (CV) events, bone density loss, and fractures in a cohort of patients who underwent alloHSCT for hematologic disorders. The potential risk factors for MS, CV events, bone density loss, and fractures, as well as the sufficiency of existing monitoring measures in our institution, were also evaluated. Methods A single-center, retrospective study was conducted. We included patients who underwent alloHSCT at the Singapore General Hospital between January 2011 and December 2016, were at least 21 years old, and had a minimum follow-up period of 6 months. Patients with MS-related data comprised the CV study population, whereas patients with bone loss-related data comprised the skeletal study population. Associations between risk factors and the development of MS or bone loss were assessed using a univariate analysis followed by multivariate logistic regression. All analyses were performed using SPSS version 23. Results A total of 91 patients were included in the CV study population, of which 13 (14.3%) had preexisting MS, 17 (18.7%) developed MS, and 5 (5.5%) developed CV events after alloHSCT. Thirty-one patients were included in the skeletal study population, of which 2 (6.5%) had preexisting bone loss, 23 (71.0%) developed osteopenia or osteoporosis, and 2 (6.5%) had a fracture. After adjusting for preexisting MS, pretransplant abdominal obesity (p=0.002), elevated triglyceride (p<0.001), and fasting hyperglycemia (p<0.001) significantly predicted MS on multivariate analyses. Only female sex predicted the risk of bone loss after alloHSCT on multivariate analyses after adjusting for preexisting osteopenia (p=0.02). Of the 174 patients who underwent alloHSCT during the study period, 83 (47.7%) and 143 (82.2%) patients had no MS-related data and bone loss-related data, respectively. Conclusion Long-term alloHSCT survivors are at an increased risk of MS, CV complications, and bone loss. This underscores the importance of close monitoring and timely interventions to reduce long-term morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
Background: The impacts of previous cardio-cerebrovascular disease (pre-CCVD) on the outcomes of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) are not well described. Patients with pre-CCVD may often be poor candidates for HCT. This study aimed to investigate the impact of pre-CCVD on transplant outcomes. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted between patients with and without pre-CCVD who consecutively received allogeneic or autologous HCT between November 2013 and January 2020 with a matching of age and disease status. The cardiovascular complications and HCT outcomes of the two groups were evaluated and compared. The primary endpoints were post-transplant cardio-cerebrovascular disease (post-CCVD) and non-relapse mortality (NRM). We used a multivariable Cox proportional hazard model and the Fine-Gray competing risk regressions for analyses to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs). Results: The outcomes of 23 HCT recipients with pre-CCVD were compared with those of 107 patients in the control group. No significant differences were noted in terms of engraftment, overall survival (OS) (67.00% vs. 67.90%, P = 0.983), or relapse (29.78% vs. 28.26%, P = 0.561) between the pre-CCVD group and the control group. The cumulative incidences of 2-year NRM were similar between patients with pre-CCVD and the controls (14.68% vs. 17.08%, P = 0.670). However, pre-CCVD was associated with an increased incidence of post-CCVD (HR: 12.50, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.88–40.30, P < 0.001), which was an independent risk factor for increased NRM (HR: 10.29, 95% CI: 3.84–27.62, P < 0.001) and inferior OS (HR: 10.29, 95% CI: 3.84–27.62, P < 0.001). Conclusions: These findings suggest that the existence of pre-CCVD before transplantation might not result in increased mortality directly but superpose the toxicity of the transplantation procedure, leading to a risk of post-CCVD. Post-CCVD was a powerful predictor for high NRM and inferior OS. Further risk stratification of pre-CCVD is needed to reduce NRM in various transplantation settings.

Abstract
High-risk prediction of cardiovascular disease is of great significance and impendency in medical fields with the increasing phenomenon of sub-health these years. Most existing pathological methods for the prognosis prediction are either costly or prone to misjudgement. Therefore, plenty of automated models based on machine learning have been proposed to predict the onset of cardiovascular disease with the premorbid information of patients extracted from their historical Electronic Health Records (EHRs). However, it is a tough job to select proper features from longitudinal and heterogeneous EHRs, and also a great challenge to obtain accurate and robust representations for patients. In this paper, we propose an entirely end-to-end model called DeepRisk based on attention mechanism and deep neural networks, which can not only learn high-quality features automatically from EHRs, but also efficiently integrate heterogeneous and time-ordered medical data, and finally predict patients' risk of cardiovascular diseases. Experiments are carried out on a real medical dataset and results show that DeepRisk can significantly improve the high-risk prediction accuracy for cardiovascular disease compared with state-of-the-art approaches.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a potentially curative treatment for many malignancies, hemoglobinopathies, metabolic diseases, bone marrow failure syndromes, and primary immune deficiencies. Despite the significant improvement in survival afforded by HSCT, the therapy is associated with major short and long-term morbidity and mortality. Cardiovascular complications such as cardiomyopathy, arrhythmias, pulmonary hypertension, and pericardial effusions are increasingly recognized as potential outcomes following HSCT. The incidence of cardiac complications is related to various factors such as age, co-morbid medical conditions, whether patients received cardiotoxic chemotherapy prior to HSCT, the type of HSCT (autologous versus allogeneic), and the specific conditioning regimen. Thus, the cardiovascular evaluation has become a core component of the pre-transplant assessment, however, the practice differs from center to center as national guidelines and contemporary high-quality studies are lacking. We review the incidence of cardiotoxicity in pediatric and adult HSCT, potential mechanisms of injury, and effects on long-term outcomes. We also discuss the possible therapeutic approaches when disease arises, as well as the indications and need for surveillance before, during, and after transplantation.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is considered, since 1957, a potentially curative therapeutic option for many hemopathies. Although it is an aggressive procedure, improvements in transplantation techniques and supportive strategies have markedly decreased treatment-related mortality, and the prevalence of HSCT survivors is expected to exceed half a million by 2030. At the same time, there is a growing awareness of the potentially negative effects of HSCT-related therapies on the cardiovascular (CV) system, and HSCT survivors constitute a population at high cardiovascular (CV) risk. Cardio-oncology has been proposed as a new approach to prevent cardiovascular toxicity during and after HSCT. The present article attempts to provide a multidisciplinary and practical approach to the prevention, monitoring, and management of the most common cardiovascular complications in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Abstract
Hypertension is a well-known late effect of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), but no markers predicting its development are known. Our aim was to assess short-term blood pressure (BP) values and expressions of hypertension-associated genes as possible markers of hypertension in children treated with HCT. We measured systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), using both office procedure and ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) in children before HCT and after a median of 6 months after HCT. We compared the results with two control groups, one of healthy children and another of children with simple obesity. We also performed microarray analysis of hypertension-associated genes in patients treated with HCT and children with obesity. We found no significant differences in SBP and DBP in patients before and after HCT. We found significant differences in expressions of certain genes in patients treated with HCT compared with children with obesity. We concluded that BP values in short-term follow-up after HCT do not seem to be useful predictors of hypertension as a late effect of HCT. However, over expressions of certain hypertension-associated genes might be used as markers of hypertension as a late effect of HCT if this is confirmed in larger long-term studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The early and late complications after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) determine the patients' prognosis and life quality. We aim to determine the metabolic syndrome development frequency after HSCT in children to find out the risk factors and compare them with healthy adolescents. METHODS Thirty-six children who underwent HSCT at least two years ago were analyzed prospectively and cross-sectionally. Our study included 18 healthy children between the ages of 11 and 17 as a control group. All of the cases were assessed in terms of metabolic syndrome (MS) through the use of Modified WHO Criteria. RESULTS The patients' median age was 10.6 (5.1-17) years, the median time of follow-up after HCST was 4.1 (2-13.5) years and 70% were male. Two cases were diagnosed with MS (5.6%). When considered in terms of the sub-components of MS, 2 cases (5.6%) were found to have obesity, 17 cases (47%) abnormal glucose tolerance, 11 cases (30.7%) dyslipidemia, and 3 cases (8.6%) hypertension. The MS rate was not different when compared with the 11-17 year-old healthy control group (0 vs. 11%, p=0.48). Myeloablative conditioning regimen (65 vs. 20%) and the increased age at which HSCT was performed were considered to be risk factors in terms of insulin resistance (p=0.025 and 0.002). CONCLUSIONS Age and conditioning regimens were found to be the risk factors for insulin resistance development. The long-term follow-up of the cases who had undergone HSCT in childhood in terms of MS and its sub-components is important in order to increase life quality.

Abstract
Survivors of childhood cancer are at high risk of developing metabolic diseases in adulthood. Recently, several patients developing partial lipodystrophy following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) have been described. In this review, we summarize the cases described so far and discuss potential underlying mechanisms of the disease. The findings suggest that HSCT-associated lipodystrophies may be seen as a novel form of acquired lipodystrophy.

Abstract
The development of a wide range of novel antineoplastic therapies has improved the prognosis for patients with a wide range of malignancies, which has increased the number of cancer survivors substantially. Despite the oncological benefit, cancer survivors are exposed to short- and long-term adverse cardiovascular toxicities associated with anticancer therapies. Systemic hypertension, the most common comorbidity among cancer patients, is a major contributor to the increased risk for developing these adverse cardiovascular events. Cancer and hypertension have common risk factors, have overlapping pathophysiological mechanisms and hypertension may also be a risk factor for some tumor types. Many cancer therapies have prohypertensive effects. Although some of the mechanisms by which these antineoplastic agents lead to hypertension have been characterized, further preclinical and clinical studies are required to investigate the exact pathophysiology and the optimal management of hypertension associated with anticancer therapy. In this way, monitoring and management of hypertension before, during, and after cancer treatment can be improved to minimize cardiovascular risks. This is vital to optimize cardiovascular health in patients with cancer and survivors, and to ensure that advances in terms of cancer survivorship do not come at the expense of increased cardiovascular toxicities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The American Heart Association, in conjunction with the National Institutes of Health, annually reports the most up-to-date statistics related to heart disease, stroke, and cardiovascular risk factors, including core health behaviors (smoking, physical activity, diet, and weight) and health factors (cholesterol, blood pressure, and glucose control) that contribute to cardiovascular health. The Statistical Update presents the latest data on a range of major clinical heart and circulatory disease conditions (including stroke, congenital heart disease, rhythm disorders, subclinical atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, heart failure, valvular disease, venous disease, and peripheral artery disease) and the associated outcomes (including quality of care, procedures, and economic costs). METHODS The American Heart Association, through its Statistics Committee, continuously monitors and evaluates sources of data on heart disease and stroke in the United States to provide the most current information available in the annual Statistical Update. The 2021 Statistical Update is the product of a full year's worth of effort by dedicated volunteer clinicians and scientists, committed government professionals, and American Heart Association staff members. This year's edition includes data on the monitoring and benefits of cardiovascular health in the population, an enhanced focus on social determinants of health, adverse pregnancy outcomes, vascular contributions to brain health, the global burden of cardiovascular disease, and further evidence-based approaches to changing behaviors related to cardiovascular disease. RESULTS Each of the 27 chapters in the Statistical Update focuses on a different topic related to heart disease and stroke statistics. CONCLUSIONS The Statistical Update represents a critical resource for the lay public, policy makers, media professionals, clinicians, health care administrators, researchers, health advocates, and others seeking the best available data on these factors and conditions.

Abstract
Hyponatremia is the most common electrolyte disorder in clinical practice and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. It is frequently encountered in hematologic patients with either benign or malignant diseases. Several underlying mechanisms, such as hypovolemia, infections, toxins, renal, endocrine, cardiac, and liver disorders, as well as the use of certain drugs appear to be involved in the development or the persistence of hyponatremia. This review describes the pathophysiology of hyponatremia and discusses thoroughly the contributing factors and mechanisms that may be encountered specifically in patients with hematologic disorders. The involvement of the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) secretion and renal salt wasting syndrome (RSWS) in the development of hyponatremia in such patients, as well as their differential diagnosis and management, are also presented. Furthermore, the distinction between true hyponatremia and pseudohyponatremia is explained. Finally, a practical algorithm for the evaluation of hyponatremia in hematologic patients, as well as the principles of hyponatremia management, are included in this review.

Abstract
Purpose To analyze demand for information and advice as well as medical, psychological, and social needs of adolescents and young adults (AYAs) and older patients (non-AYA) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Methods A questionnaire was sent to 100 HSCT recipients comprising n = 50 AYAs (aged 19–39 years) and n = 50 non-AYAs (> 39 years). The questionnaire covered the categories: (a) patient characteristics; (b) need for advice, on medical, psychological, and social care topics; (c) medical, psychological, and social needs, and (d) preferred forms and channels of information. Results The return rate was 65%. 62.5% of patients indicated medical needs; 41.1% psychological needs, and 64.9% had needs concerning social issues. Among medical aspects, aftercare was important to both groups. Nutrition was of highest interest for AYA, while non-AYAs identified fatigue and vaccination as their most pressing concerns. Body shape/sexuality and relaxation techniques were the most common psychological issues for AYA, while coping strategies were important for both cohorts. Family, relationship and friends were of less interest in both groups. Rehabilitation and premature retirement were of highest interest for both cohorts. The preferred mode of communicating advice was one-to-one conversation in a quiet environment as opposed to informational sessions. Conclusion Despite well-established aftercare programs following HSCT, many patients describe unmet needs regarding medical, psychological, and social policy issues. AYA and non-AYA differ in informational needs after HSCT, and, therefore, age-appropriate informational materials are necessary. Particularly AYA may profit from information covering body-shape/sexuality and nutrition, while both cohorts require information covering coping strategies and aftercare.

Abstract
There are over 15 million survivors of cancer in the United States whose rates of frailty, an aging phenotype, range from just under 10% to over 80%. Frailty impacts not only disease survival but also long-term function and quality of life in children, adolescents, and in all adults diagnosed and/or treated for cancer. This review explains frailty as a construct and model of physiologic well-being. It also describes how frailty at diagnosis impacts cancer outcomes in adult populations and enumerates the prevalence of frailty in different populations of cancer survivors. Biological mechanisms responsible for aging and potentially for frailty among individuals with or who have been treated for cancer are discussed. Finally, promising pharmaceutical and lifestyle interventions designed to impact aging rather than a specific disease, tested in other populations, but likely applicable in cancer patients and survivors, are discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prevalences of diabetes mellitus and hypertension, both of which are components of metabolic syndrome, are known to be increased among patients with multiple myeloma (MM), but remain undetermined among patients with smoldering MM (SMM). METHODS Changes in various components of metabolic syndrome were investigated during the follow-up of patients with either MM or SMM compared to healthy controls. The data of 153 patients (105 with MM and 48 with SMM) and 138 controls were accessed from our medical center's records between 2008 and 2015. We analyzed the patients' data at diagnosis (baseline) and after 1, 3, and 5 years of follow-up. RESULTS Patients with SMM had a significantly higher prevalence of diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia at baseline compared to controls. A multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed a higher risk to develop dyslipidemia after 1, 3, and 5 years of follow-up among the SMM patients. The MM patients had a higher risk to develop diabetes after 1 year, hypertension after 5 years, and dyslipidemia after 1, 3, and 5 years of follow-up. CONCLUSIONS These data demonstrate that patients with SMM and those with MM are more prone to develop various components of metabolic syndrome, and they stress the importance of following-up metabolic syndrome components in both groups of patients.

Abstract
Background The incidence of insulin resistance (IR) has rapidly increased worldwide over the last 20 years, no perfect solution has yet been identified. Finding new therapeutic drugs will help improve this situation. As a traditional Chinese medicine, PPM (processed Polygonum multiflorum) has widely been used in the clinic. Recently, other clinical functions of PPM have been widely analyzed. Results Administration of the water extract from PPM decreased the level of FBG, TC, and TG, and increased the level of FGC, thereby reducing the IR index and improving IR. Furthermore, Western blot analysis revealed that PPM significantly increased GPR43 and AMPK expression when compared with the MOD group, and GPR43, AMPK were known as glucose metabolism-related proteins. In addition, treatment with PPM can restore the balance of gut microbiota by adjusting the relative abundance of bacteria both at the phylum and genus level, and these changes have been reported to be related to IR. Methods Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were fed a high-fat diet and were gavaged daily with either normal saline solution or PPM for 12 weeks. Major biochemical indexes, such as fasting blood glucose (FBG), fasting glucagon (FGC), total cholesterol (TC), and triglyceride (TG) were measured. Then the protein expression of adenosine 5′-monophosphate -activated protein kinase (AMPK) and G protein-coupled receptor 43 (GPR43) was evaluated by using Western blot analysis. Moreover, the composition of gut microbiota was assessed by analyzing 16S rRNA sequences. Conclusions Our findings showed that PPM reversed the increasing of FBG and the decreasing of IRI, PPM accelerated the expression of glucose metabolism-related proteins and regulated the intestinal microecological balance. Therefore, we hold the opinion that PPM may be an effective option for treating IR.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The American Heart Association, in conjunction with the National Institutes of Health, annually reports on the most up-to-date statistics related to heart disease, stroke, and cardiovascular risk factors, including core health behaviors (smoking, physical activity, diet, and weight) and health factors (cholesterol, blood pressure, and glucose control) that contribute to cardiovascular health. The Statistical Update presents the latest data on a range of major clinical heart and circulatory disease conditions (including stroke, congenital heart disease, rhythm disorders, subclinical atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, heart failure, valvular disease, venous disease, and peripheral artery disease) and the associated outcomes (including quality of care, procedures, and economic costs). METHODS The American Heart Association, through its Statistics Committee, continuously monitors and evaluates sources of data on heart disease and stroke in the United States to provide the most current information available in the annual Statistical Update. The 2020 Statistical Update is the product of a full year's worth of effort by dedicated volunteer clinicians and scientists, committed government professionals, and American Heart Association staff members. This year's edition includes data on the monitoring and benefits of cardiovascular health in the population, metrics to assess and monitor healthy diets, an enhanced focus on social determinants of health, a focus on the global burden of cardiovascular disease, and further evidence-based approaches to changing behaviors, implementation strategies, and implications of the American Heart Association's 2020 Impact Goals. RESULTS Each of the 26 chapters in the Statistical Update focuses on a different topic related to heart disease and stroke statistics. CONCLUSIONS The Statistical Update represents a critical resource for the lay public, policy makers, media professionals, clinicians, healthcare administrators, researchers, health advocates, and others seeking the best available data on these factors and conditions.

Abstract
Chemotherapy treatment and autologous and allogeneic cell transplantations are often complicated by the onset of metabolic and endocrine disorders. Autoimmune disorders, metabolic diseases, and hormonal dysfunctions are some of the endocrine complications observed during or after treatment with immunotherapy (mostly novel agents) and/or chemotherapy conditioning for transplantation. Although successful treatment of the underlying hematological condition often improves the dysfunction, endocrinopathies can have an impact on prognosis and are associated with poor survival; therefore, it is important to detect and treat them as early as possible. An increased incidence of cardiovascular diseases and metabolic syndrome has been observed after transplantation mostly in long-term survivors. In addition, chemotherapy and radiation along with the prolonged use of corticosteroids can contribute to the onset of thyroid and gonadal dysfunctions. The aim of this article is to describe metabolic dysfunctions occurring in patients who underwent allogeneic cell transplantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Young male cancer survivors have lower testosterone levels, higher fat mass, and worse quality of life (QoL) than age-matched healthy controls. Low testosterone in cancer survivors can be due to orchidectomy or effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. We have undertaken a double-blind, placebo-controlled, 6-month trial of testosterone replacement in young male cancer survivors with borderline low testosterone (7-12 nmol/l). METHODS AND FINDINGS This was a multicentre United Kingdom study conducted in secondary care hospital outpatients. Male survivors of testicular cancer, lymphoma, and leukaemia aged 25-50 years with morning total serum testosterone 7-12 nmol/l were recruited. A total of 136 men were randomised between July 2012 and February 2015 (42.6% aged 25-37 years, 57.4% 38-50 years, 88% testicular cancer, 10% lymphoma, matched for body mass index [BMI]). Participants were randomised 1:1 to receive testosterone (Tostran 2% gel) or placebo for 26 weeks. A dose titration was performed after 2 weeks. The coprimary end points were trunk fat mass and SF36 Physical Functioning score (SF36-PF) at 26 weeks by intention to treat. At 26 weeks, testosterone treatment compared with placebo was associated with decreased trunk fat mass (-0.9 kg, 95% CI -1.6 to -0.3, p = 0.0073), decreased whole-body fat mass (-1.8 kg, 95% CI -2.9 to -0.7, p = 0.0016), and increased lean body mass (1.5 kg, 95% CI 0.9-2.1, p < 0.001). Decrease in fat mass was greatest in those with a high truncal fat mass at baseline. There was no treatment effect on SF36-PF or any other QoL scores. Testosterone treatment was well tolerated. The limitations of our study were as follows: a relatively short duration of treatment, only three cancer groups included, and no hard end point data such as cardiovascular events. CONCLUSIONS In young male cancer survivors with low-normal morning total serum testosterone, replacement with testosterone is associated with an improvement in body composition.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of late morbidity and mortality in hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) survivors. HCT-specific CVD risk prediction models are needed to facilitate early screening and prevention. In the current study, patients who underwent HCT at City of Hope (COH) and survived 1-year free of clinically evident CVD (N = 1828) were observed for the development of heart failure (HF) or coronary artery disease (CAD) by 10-years from index date (1 year from HCT). CVD occurred in 135 individuals (92 HF, 43 CAD). Risk prediction models were developed for overall CVD (HF and/or CAD) using COH-derived integer risk scores. Risk scores based on selected variables (age, anthracycline dose, chest radiation, hypertension, diabetes, smoking) achieved an area under the curve (AUC) and concordance (C) statistic of 0.74 and 0.72 for CVD; these varied from 0.70 to 0.82 according to CVD subtype (HF or CAD). A Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center case cohort (N = 580) was used to validate the COH models. Validation cohort AUCs ranged from 0.66 to 0.75. Risk scores were collapsed to form statistically distinct low-, intermediate-, and high-risk groups, corresponding to 10-year cumulative incidences of CVD of 3.7%, 9.9%, and 26.2%, respectively. Individuals in the high- and intermediate-risk groups were at 7.8-fold (95% confidence interval, 5.0-12.2) and 2.9-fold (95% confidence interval, 1.9-4.6) risk of developing CVD (referent group: low risk). These validated models provide a framework on which to modify current screening recommendations and for the development of targeted interventions to reduce the risk of CVD after HCT.

Abstract
Over the last 20 years, haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has been used to treat patients with severe autoimmune and inflammatory diseases whose response to standard treatment options has been limited, resulting in a poor long-term prognosis in terms of survival or disability. The vast majority of patients have received autologous HSCT where an increasing evidence-base supports its use in a wide range of autoimmune diseases, particularly relapsing remitting MS, systemic sclerosis and Crohn’s disease. Compared with standard treatments for autoimmune diseases, HSCT is associated with greater short-term risks, including a risk of treatment-related mortality and long-term complications. There is a need for a careful appraisal of potential benefits and risks by disease and transplant specialists working closely together with patients and carers to determine individual suitability for HSCT. HSCT should be conducted in accredited transplant centres with robust arrangements for long-term follow-up with both disease and transplant specialists. The aim of this open-access position statement is to provide plainly worded guidance for patients and non-specialist clinicians considering HSCT for an autoimmune disease, especially when treatment abroad is being considered. Recent technical publications in the field have been referenced to support the statement and provide more detail for clinicians advising patients.

Abstract
Objective: Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is an immune phenomenon that occurs in 30 to 70% of patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HST). Chronic GVHD is a state of immune dysregulation wherein, depending on the severity and organ involved, patients may require prolonged treatment with additional or higher corticosteroids and other immunosuppressive agents. The objective of this study was to review the endocrine manifestations following HST that can arise as a consequence of the primary disease or its treatment, including chemotherapeutic agents, corticosteroids, radiation, or GVHD. Methods: We performed a narrative review of GVHD after HST. An English-language search for relevant studies was conducted on PubMed from inception to August 1, 2018, using the following search terms: "endocrine complications," "bone marrow transplantation," "graft-versus-host disease," and "GVHD." The reference lists of relevant studies were also reviewed. Results: Chronic GVHD may be associated with considerable pediatric growth impairment and may also contribute to thyroid gland dysfunction and thyroid cancer. These patients may also be at increased risk for low bone mineral density, reduced fertility, metabolic syndrome, and suppression of the pituitary-adrenal axis with adrenal insufficiency. Conclusion: This review indicates the importance of monitoring, diagnosing, and properly treating the endocrine complications in this population. More studies are needed to investigate the independent impact of GVHD on the endocrine system and treatment for complications. Abbreviations: BMD = bone mineral density; GH = growth hormone; GVHD = graft-versus-host disease; HST = hematopoietic stem cell transplantation; IGF-1 = insulin-like growth factor 1.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a curative treatment for life-threatening malignancies and related diseases. Recently, the long-term prognosis of HSCT during childhood has greatly improved; however, the late adverse effects of HSCT have been found to cause substantial morbidity among long-term survivors. Although metabolic complications, such as diabetes mellitus (DM) and hyperlipidemia (HL), are the major late effects of pediatric HSCT, the clinical details are not clarified sufficiently. METHODS From 1983 to 2013, 75 participants underwent HSCT in our institute because of malignant or other related diseases. We retrospectively evaluated metabolic complications of eligible 22 participants (14 men and 8 women), and their clinical backgrounds. RESULTS Among 22 participants, 4 and 9 participants developed DM and HL after HSCT, respectively, and all participants with DM developed HL. None of the participants with DM were obese, and all had substantial insulin resistance. Total body irradiation (TBI) was performed in 10 participants, including 4 participants with DM and 5 participants with HL, revealing that TBI is an independent risk factor for DM. The age at TBI for participants with DM was significantly lower than that for participants without DM (p = 0.01), and all participants with DM received TBI before the age of 6. CONCLUSIONS Our data suggested that TBI was a risk factor for DM after HSCT, and TBI before the age of six increased the possibility of DM without obesity.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW A growing number of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) survivors reach adulthood and face long-term health-related problems. We review risk factors and the prevalence of the metabolic syndrome (MetS), a cluster of obesity-related comorbidities, including abdominal obesity, atherogenic dyslipidemia, elevated blood pressure, impaired glucose metabolism, and type 2 diabetes in ALL and HSCT survivors. RECENT FINDINGS Components of the MetS are already detected during the first year of ALL maintenance therapy and significantly worsen over time. The prevalence of MetS increases at a faster rate in this setting than in the general population. Factors found to be of the greatest potential risk to the development of the MetS are central obesity, increased BMI, irradiation therapy, older age, poor diet, and low level of physical activity. The early onset of MetS and its components among ALL and HSCT survivors calls for early and continuous screening to identify those at risk and to implement preventive measures.

Abstract
A number of studies have shown that autologous and allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) contribute to an increased incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and worsening of cardiovascular risk factors that could contribute to further CVD over time. These observations, combined with a notable increase in the number of survivors after HCT in recent years, highlight the need for studies aimed at modifying risk or preventing these outcomes by changing specific approaches and/or post-HCT interventions. To address these issues, the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute and National Cancer Institute co-sponsored an international initiative on late effects after HCT. This report summarizes the major gaps in knowledge along with detailed recommendations regarding study priorities from the Cardiovascular Disease and Associated Risk Factors Committee, a multidisciplinary panel of international experts. The committee calls for specific studies aimed at understanding and preventing arterial disease and cardiac dysfunction (heart failure, valvular disease, and arrhythmias), as well as decreasing cardiovascular risk factors (hypertension, hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, and sarcopenic obesity) after HCT.
