Scientists find link between heart disease and cancer risk
There may be a connection between diseases of the cardiovascular system and the risk of developing cancer, scientists from the Mayo Clinic found out.
The scientists have observed 488 patients with cardiovascular diseases for over 10 years.
According to experts, microvascular endothelial dysfunction is often present in individuals with a high risk of developing cancer. This dysfunction manifests itself in damage to the walls of small vessels in the heart.
