INCIDENCE OF CANCER INCREASED IN PATIENTS WITH CHRONIC HEART FAILURE

Background: Both chronic heart failure (CHF) and cancers are the most frequent diseases that cause the death in the developed counties. Since CHF may modulate the neurohumoral factors such as angiotensin II, catecholamine, adiponection, TNF-alpha and thyroid hormones, all of which may affect the ons...
