Article Synopsis
- A pneumonic infiltrate may mask hidden lung cancer, making diagnosis difficult and delayed, which this study aims to address.
- A retrospective study compared undiagnosed lung cancer patients presenting with symptoms of community-acquired pneumonia to matched controls, identifying six key variables that increase the likelihood of an underlying lung cancer.
- A new clinical scoring system was developed from these variables, showing high sensitivity and specificity, which could help clinicians recognize potential lung cancer cases earlier in patients presenting with pneumonia-like symptoms.
