Abstract

The co-existence of cardiac arrhythmias and cancer presents a growing clinical challenge due to the compounding effects of both conditions on cognitive health. Each disorder independently contributes to neurocognitive deterioration through mechanisms such as cerebral hypoperfusion, systemic inflammation, and treatment-related neurotoxicity. However, the intersection of these diseases amplifies the trajectory of cognitive decline, a phenomenon not yet fully understood.
