DOI: 10.1002/ejhf.2292
Abstract: Since the DIG study,1 which demonstrated that whilst digoxin reduced hospitalization for heart failure (HF), there was no significant overall effect on mortality, the place of digoxin in treating HF has steadily declined over recent… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ijc.33923
Abstract: Beta‐blockers have shown antineoplastic effects in laboratory studies but epidemiologic evidence in relation to contralateral breast cancer (CBC) is sparse. We investigated postdiagnosis beta‐blocker use and risk of CBC in a cohort of 52 723 women… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00068-021-01723-y
Abstract: Dementia, present in 20% of hip fracture patients, is associated with an almost threefold increase in postoperative mortality risk. These patients have a substantially higher incidence of cardiovascular, respiratory, and cerebrovascular mortality after hip fracture… read more here.
