My ESC News 22 July 2026 - A Weekly Update of ESC Events & Resources   Free session on ESC 365 Tackling challenging problems with expert answers   This session reflects a key pillar of cardio-oncology: applying evolving evidence to complex clinical scenarios through multidisciplinary discussion and consensus-based decision-making. The cases address permissive cardiotoxicity, ICI rechallenge and 5-FU-related toxicity, highlighting daily situations where decisions are difficult, evidence is limited and expert dialogue is essential. Where evidence is still evolving, every challenging case becomes an opportunity to learn, to collaborate and to generate the evidence that will guide tomorrow’s practice.   Watch now Cardiovascular Science ESC journals - recent articles   Enjoy free access today to: European Heart Journal: Influenza vaccination, incident atrial fibrillation, and cardiovascular outcomes.

But new products such as vapes and snus are raising concerns. While often marketed as safer alternatives, Prof. Paul Dendale highlights that their health risks should not be underestimated.
