NPPB and colorectal cancer: In general, a high CVD prevalence in elderly patients with various cancer types (Supplementary Table 2) increased the prevalence rank of each cancer (e.g., colorectal cancer in LVD, IHD, VTE, high NT-proBNP, or CVD, and urinary bladder cancer in LVD), while an average CVD prevalence in frequent cancers retained the latter’s higher proportions (e.g., prostate cancer with SD, AF, or CVD) in 2015.
