Journal Article
Reducing racial and ethnic disparities in cardiovascular outcomes among cancer survivors
2024
Overview
Purpose of reviewAnalyze current evidence on racial/ethnic disparities in cardiovascular outcomes among cancer survivors, identifying factors and proposing measures to address health inequities.Recent findingsExisting literature indicates that the Black population experiences worse cardiovascular outcomes following the diagnosis of both initial primary cancer and second primary cancer, with a notably higher prevalence of cardio-toxic events, particularly among breast cancer survivors. Contributing socioeconomic factors to these disparities include unfavorable social determinants of health, inadequate insurance coverage, and structural racism within the healthcare system. Additionally, proinflammatory epigenetic modification is hypothesized to be a contributing genetic variation factor. Addressing these disparities requires a multiperspective approach, encompassing efforts to address racial disparities and social determinants of health within the healthcare system, refine healthcare policies and access, and integrate historically stigmatized racial groups into clinical research.SummaryRacial and ethnic disparities persist in cardiovascular outcomes among cancer survivors, driven by multifactorial causes, predominantly associated with social determinants of health. Addressing these healthcare inequities is imperative, and timely efforts must be implemented to narrow the existing gap effectively.
