Article Synopsis
- Breast cancer patients experience a heightened risk of cardiometabolic diseases, exacerbated by adjuvant therapies that alter inflammatory and metabolic health markers.
- A study measured inflammatory cytokines and metabolic health parameters in 51 postmenopausal early breast cancer patients over two years, revealing significant increases in cytokines immediately after chemotherapy.
- Although cytokine levels returned to near baseline within six months, patients continued to show worsened lipid profiles and insulin resistance for up to a year post-treatment.
