RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: It is unknown whether the cardiovascular risks associated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) use differ according to lifestyle and socioeconomic position. OBJECTIVE: We examined the association between NSAID use and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) within subgroups defined by lifestyle and socioeconomic position. METHODS: We conducted a case-crossover study of all adult first-time respondents to the Danish National Health Surveys of 2010, 2013, or 2017, without previous cardiovascular disease, who experienced a MACE from survey completion through 2020. We used a Mantel-Haenszel method to obtain odds ratios (ORs) of the association between NSAID use (ibuprofen, naproxen, or diclofenac) and MACE (myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, heart failure, or all-cause death). We identified NSAID use and MACE via nationwide Danish health registries. We stratified the analyses by body mass index, smoking status, alcohol consumption, physical activity level, marital status, education, income, and employment. RESULTS: Compared with non-use, the OR of MACE was 1.34 (95% confidence interval: 1.23-1.46) for ibuprofen, 1.48 (1.04-2.43) for naproxen, and 2.18 (1.72-2.78) for diclofenac. When comparing NSAID use with non-use or the individual NSAIDs with each other, we observed no notable heterogeneity in the ORs within subgroups of lifestyle and socioeconomic position for any NSAID. Compared with ibuprofen, diclofenac was associated with increased risk of MACE in several subgroups with high cardiovascular risk, e.g., individuals with overweight (OR 1.52, 1.01-2.39) and smokers (OR 1.54, 0.96-2.46). CONCLUSIONS: The relative increase in cardiovascular risk associated with NSAID use was not modified by lifestyle or socioeconomic position.

BACKGROUND: Survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) may be at increased long-term risk of hospitalization for somatic diseases. However, large population-based cohort studies with risk estimates for survivors successfully cured without experiencing a relapse or requiring hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are lacking. METHODS: Danish and Swedish patients diagnosed with ALL before age 20 years in 1982-2008 were identified in the national cancer registries. Five-year survivors and matched population comparisons without childhood cancer were followed for hospitalization for 120 somatic disease categories in the national hospital registries from 5 years postdiagnosis until 2017, and disease-specific hospitalization rate ratios (RR) were calculated. The mean cumulative count method was used to estimate the mean number of multiple and recurrent disease-specific hospitalizations per individual. RESULTS: A total of 2024 5-year survivors and 9797 population comparisons were included. The overall hospitalization rate was more than twice as high compared with comparisons (RR = 2.30, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.09 to 2.52). At 30 years postdiagnosis, the mean cumulative hospitalization count was 1.69 (95% CI = 1.47 to 1.90) per survivor and 0.80 (95% CI = 0.73 to 0.86) per comparison. In the subcohort without relapse or HSCT (n = 1709), the RR was 1.41 (95% CI = 1.27 to 1.58). CONCLUSIONS: Survivors of childhood ALL were at increased long-term risk for disease-specific hospitalizations; however, in survivors without relapse or HSCT, the rate was only modestly higher than in population comparisons without a childhood cancer. The absolute mean numbers of multiple and recurrent hospitalizations were generally low.

BACKGROUND: Extended, more effective breast cancer treatments have increased the prevalence of long-term survivors. We investigated the risk of late breast cancer recurrence (BCR), 10 years or more after primary diagnosis, and associations between patient and tumor characteristics at primary diagnosis and late BCR up to 32 years after primary breast cancer diagnosis. METHODS: Using the Danish Breast Cancer Group clinical database, we identified all women with an incident early breast cancer diagnosed during 1987-2004. We restricted to women who survived 10 years without a recurrence or second cancer (10-year disease-free survivors) and followed them from 10 years after breast cancer diagnosis date until late recurrence, death, emigration, second cancer, or December 31, 2018. We calculated incidence rates per 1000 person-years and cumulative incidences for late BCR, stratifying by patient and tumor characteristics. Using Cox regression, we calculated adjusted hazard ratios for late BCR accounting for competing risks. RESULTS: Among 36 924 women with breast cancer, 20 315 became 10-year disease-free survivors. Of these, 2595 developed late BCR (incidence rate = 15.53 per 1000 person-years, 95% confidence interval = 14.94 to 16.14; cumulative incidence = 16.6%, 95% confidence interval = 15.8% to 17.5%) from year 10 to 32 after primary diagnosis. Tumor size larger than 20 mm, lymph node-positive disease, and estrogen receptor-positive tumors were associated with increased cumulative incidences and hazards for late BCR. CONCLUSIONS: Recurrences continued to occur up to 32 years after primary diagnosis. Women with high lymph node burden, large tumor size, and estrogen receptor-positive tumors had increased risk of late recurrence. Such patients may warrant extended surveillance, more aggressive treatment, or new therapy approaches.
