This nationwide complete analysis of all adult deaths in #England & #Wales has found that the #COVID pandemic has resulted in an abrupt inflation in acute #cardiovascular deaths above that expected for the time of year. heart.bmj.com/content/early/…
That is, about 2000 additional deaths over a 4 month period.
Nearly half of the deaths occurred outside of the #hospital setting, either at #home or in #carehomes.

Emerging data from @PHE_uk suggests a synergistic detrimental effect of co-infection with #SARS_CoV_2 & #flu viruses. The preprint (not peer reviewed) article is available here medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
‘The risk of testing positive for #SARS_CoV_2 was 68% lower among #influenza positive cases, suggesting possible pathogenic competition between the two viruses.’
However, ‘Patients with a coinfection had a risk of death of 5.92 (95% CI, 3.21-10.91) times greater than among those with neither influenza nor SARS-CoV-2 suggesting possible synergistic effects in coinfected individuals.’

Advances in #cancer treatment have improved clinical outcomes, leading to an increasing population of cancer survivors. Yet, this success is associated with high rates of short‐ & long‐term #cardiovascular toxicities. The Cancer Patient and Cardiology onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.100…
The number & variety of #cancer drugs & #cardiovascular toxicity types make long‐term care a complex undertaking.
This requires a multidisciplinary approach including expertise from #oncology, #cardiology, & other related specialties, & has led to the development of the cardio‐oncology subspecialty.

This cluster randomised controlled trial found that opportunistic screening in primary care did not increase the detection of #AFib compared with usual care in patients aged 65 & over @bmj_latest bmj.com/content/370/bm…

Yet the findings are in contrast to the SAFE study which showed that opportunistic screening for #atrialfibrillation over a year detected more new diagnoses than usual care.
