Olympic champion Andy Cruz had to make heartbreaking family decision for his career
He has also matched him with a rugged opponent, in Burgos, in the knowledge that in December the Mexican fought America’s promising Keyshawn Davis and survived all eight rounds. In scheduling Cruz-Burgos over 10 they are not only taking a relative gamble on Cruz’s ability to swiftly adapt as a professional, they are demanding he make a statement by beating Burgos more impressively.
The Cuban had been scheduled to make his professional debut in May 2022, in a promotion overseen by his country’s boxing federation and the Mexico-based Golden Ring Promotions. The entire Cuban amateur boxing team was to appear under an agreement that meant their fighters could start to climb the professional rankings while remaining eligible for international competitions and that the federation would receive a cut of their income.
A month later – whether doing so had long been his plan or he was reacting to what had happened remains unclear – he travelled from his home in Matanzas, 65 miles east of Havana, to the seaside city of Moa in preparation to attempt to leave Cuba by boat.

Investigating the risk of metabolic and cardiovascular comorbidities among patients with parathyroid cancer: a nationwide representative cohort study in Taiwan - BMC MedicineBackground This study aimed to determine whether primary parathyroid cancer patients were associated with increased metabolic and cardiovascular comorbidities in comparison to the general population. Methods We used the National Taiwan Cancer Registry Database to construct a cohort of patients with parathyroid cancer from January 1, 2004, to December 31, 2019. We compared the incidence of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, atrial fibrillation, coronary heart disease, and heart failure with the general population matched based on a propensity score in a one-to-five fashion. Results A total of 72 parathyroid cancer patients and 360 matched general population (mean age: 55 years; 59% women) were included, with different exclusive numbers for each metabolic and cardiovascular comorbidity cohort. The number of cases based on a total of 2347.7 person-years of observation included 53 deaths, 29 hypertension, 9 diabetes, 13 hyperlipidemia, 10 atrial fibrillation, 18 coronary artery disease, and 13 heart failure. According to multivariate analysis, parathyroid cancer remained significantly associated with diabetes [hazard ratio (HR): 9.28; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.72–50.07], hyperlipidemia (HR: 5.86; 95% CI: 1.61–21.31), and heart failure (HR: 4.46; 95% CI: 1.18–16.84). Sub-distribution of competing mortality events and subgroup analysis showed robust evidence of metabolic and cardiovascular comorbidities. This national cohort study demonstrated that adult parathyroid cancer patients had a significantly higher incidence of diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, and heart failure than the general population. Conclusions An increased risk of metabolic and cardiac comorbidities among parathyroid cancer patients required great caution.
