    Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular complications in recipients.

  • 2

    Sibilia et al. found that 30% of alloHSCT patients experienced cardiotoxicity within a median follow-up of 4 years.

  • 3

    Itzhaki et al. demonstrated that the PREVENT ASCVD model is effective for predicting cardiovascular risk in alloHSCT survivors.

  • 4

    There is a critical need for improved heart failure risk prediction models due to the high incidence of heart failure post-alloHSCT.

  • 5

    Future research should validate findings in larger cohorts and explore targeted prevention strategies for cardiovascular complications.
