Diabetes and chemotherapy frequently give rise to severe cardiovascular complications, including chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity and diabetes-associated vascular remodeling. Nevertheless, the precise epidemiological features of these cardiovascular ailments remain incompletely elucidated, resulting in a dearth of effective therapeutic strategies in clinical settings. To tackle this intricate challenge, we have delved extensively into database resources, conducted comprehensive analyses of pertinent epidemiological data, and designed silicified curcumin (Si/Cur) microspheres as a novel therapeutic approach for cardiovascular diseases.

Background: Implementing lipid control in patients with diabetes is regarded as a potential strategy for halting the advancement of diabetic retinopathy (DR). This study seeks to use Mendelian randomisation (MR) to assess the causal relationship between lipid traits and lipid-lowering drug targets and full-course DR (background DR, severe non-proliferative DR (NPDR) and proliferative DR (PDR)).
Methods: A two-sample MR and drug target MR to decipher the causal effects of lipid traits and lipid-lowering drug targets on full-course DR, including background DR, severe NPDR and PDR, was conducted in the study.
Introduction: Non-cancer events are important causes of competing mortality among cancer patients. However, the risk of non-cancer death and risk classification in middle-aged cancer patients is not clear. To comprehensively analyze the risk of non-cancer deaths in 24 different cancers among middle-aged patients.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFIntroduction: Previous studies on cardiovascular disease (CVD) death risk in cancer patients mostly focused on overall cancer, age subgroups and single cancers.
Objectives: To assess the CVD death risk in non-metastatic cancer patients at 21 cancer sites.
Methods: A total of 1,672,561 non-metastatic cancer patients from Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) datebase (1975-2018) were included in this population-based study, with a median follow-up of 12·7 years.

Purpose: The risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality in patients with localized prostate cancer (PCa) by risk stratification remains unclear. The aim of this study was to determine the risk of CVD death in patients with localized PCa by risk stratification.
Patients And Methods: Population-based study of 340,806 cases in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database diagnosed with localized PCa between 2004 and 2016.
Background: Previous studies focused on the impact of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) risk factors in breast cancer patients with chemotherapy (CT) or radiotherapy (RT). This study aimed to identify the impact of tumor characteristics on CVD death in these patients.
Methods: Data of female breast cancer patients with CT or RT between 2004 and 2016 were included.
Background: previous studies have focused on the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD)-related death in individual cancers, adolescents or all cancers.
Objective: to evaluate the risk of CVD-related death in older patients with cancer.
Methods: older patients with cancer (over 65 years) of 16 cancers diagnosed between 1975 and 2018 were screened out from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results program.
Objective: The study aimed to evaluate the non-cancer-specific death risk and identify the risk factors affecting the non-cancer-specific survival (NCSS) in patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL).
Methods: This multi-center cohort study included 2497 patients with PCNSL in the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database from 2007 to 2016, with a mean follow-up of 4.54 years.

Background: Distant metastases are independent negative prognostic factors for patients with primary malignant cardiac tumors (PMCT). This study aims to further investigate metastatic patterns and their prognostic effects in patients with PMCT.
Materials And Methods: This multicenter retrospective study included 218 patients with PMCT diagnosed between 2010 and 2017 from Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database.
