This systematic review summarizes the available evidence on respiratory muscle endurance training involving voluntary isocapnic hyperpnoea among patients with chronic diseases. It includes both randomized and non-randomized controlled trials implementing this exercise training modality performed either alone or in combination with other interventions. It was conducted using the following databases: PubMed, Google Scholar, Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro), Embase, CINAHL, CENTRAL, Cochrane and ReeDOC.

- The study aimed to evaluate safety and survival outcomes of lobectomy, segmentectomy, and wedge resection for early-stage lung cancer using data from the French EPITHOR registry between 2016 and 2022.
- A total of 19,452 patients were analyzed, finding that lobectomy was the most common procedure (72.2%), and while short-term 90-day mortality rates were similar across the three methods, significant differences emerged in 5-year overall survival.
- The results indicated that wedge resection was linked to worse long-term survival compared to lobectomy, suggesting that all types of sublobar resections may not provide equal effectiveness in treating lung cancer.
Article Synopsis
- Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) often leads to compromised lung function, and this study focuses on the effects of surgical methods, specifically minimally invasive surgery (MIS), on 90-day post-operative mortality in high-risk patients.
- The research analyzed data from over 46,000 patients, identifying high-risk individuals with poor lung function, and found a significantly higher mortality rate in this group compared to low-risk patients.
- Results indicated that high-risk patients undergoing MIS had lower mortality rates than those undergoing traditional open surgery, even matching the mortality rates of low-risk patients.
Article Synopsis
- The Lungsco01 study is the first to evaluate the effectiveness and economic impact of video-thoracoscopy compared to open thoracotomy for treating non-small cell lung cancer in France, involving 259 patients from 10 medical centers over a four-year period.
- Results indicated that the average costs for open thoracotomy were lower than for video-thoracoscopy at both 30 days and 3 months post-surgery, with video-thoracoscopy showing a higher incremental cost-utility ratio per additional quality-adjusted life-year (QALY) gained.
- The analysis revealed a 64% probability that video-thoracoscopy was cost-effective at the 30-day mark
