The impact of different prong-nares ratio on ventilation in COPD patients using nasal high-flow (NHF) - a physiological study.

Introduction: Nasal high flow (NHF) is a popular technique to provide support in respiratory failure in different conditions. Recently published bench studies have hypothesized that airway pressure can be increased by using different cannula sizes and corresponding prongs resulting in a range of prong-nare ratios. We conducted this study to verify these experimental findings in clinical practice.

Detection of cancer-associated cachexia in lung cancer patients using whole-body [F]FDG-PET/CT imaging: A multi-centre study.

Background: Cancer-associated cachexia (CAC) is a metabolic syndrome contributing to therapy resistance and mortality in lung cancer patients (LCP). CAC is typically defined using clinical non-imaging criteria. Given the metabolic underpinnings of CAC and the ability of [F]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET)/computer tomography (CT) to provide quantitative information on glucose turnover, we evaluate the usefulness of whole-body (WB) PET/CT imaging, as part of the standard diagnostic workup of LCP, to provide additional information on the onset or presence of CAC.

co-mutations in advanced lung adenocarcinoma: comparative bioinformatic analyses suggest ambivalent character on overall survival alongside , and mutations.

Background: Recently, we could show that the co-mutations of + , + and + + lead to a significantly shorter median overall survival (mOS) across treatments by analyzing multiple datasets. , a tumor suppressor gene, plays a crucial role in regulating cell cycle progression. Its mutations occur in approximately 40-50% of non-small lung cancer (NSCLC).
