JACC: CardioOncology - Adiposity and Muscle Strength in Men with Prostate Cancer and Cardiovascular Outcomes
10/15/24 • 3 min
In this episode, Dr. Josh Mitchell reviews a significant study that explores the links between physical health markers, such as waist circumference and hand grip strength, and cardiovascular outcomes in men with prostate cancer undergoing androgen deprivation therapy. The findings indicate that increased waist circumference and decreased grip strength are associated with higher cardiovascular event risks, highlighting the need for targeted interventions like exercise in these patients and emphasizing the importance of further research in diverse populations.
