Carinal Resection and Extended Sleeve Lobectomy After Right Upper Sleeve Lobectomy: 1 Step Beyond.

We describe the case of a 54-year-old man with a history of non-small cell lung cancer for which we performed a right upper sleeve lobectomy after chemotherapy. Pathologic examination reported a ypT1 N1 M0 R0 epidermoid carcinoma. Two years later, a local recurrence involving the tracheal carina and the previous anastomosis line was diagnosed.

Background: Cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD) continuum is knowingly associated with degenerative neurobiological features; however, reliable markers for the early detection of the preclinical stages of AD are not fully established. The main goal of this study was to track ongoing brain neurodegeneration across the AD continuum by combining neuropsychological data, brain MRI features, and plasmatic - brain-derived circulating cell-free DNA (b-cfDNA) biomarkers.

Method: A total of 91 participants were included in this study including 28 healthy controls (HC) (mean age 66.

Blood neurofilament light chain and S100B as biomarkers of neurological involvement and functional prognosis in COVID-19: a multicenter study.

Background And Aim: COVID-19 is associated with neurological complications, termed neuro-COVID, affecting patient outcomes. We aimed to evaluate the association between serum neurofilament light chain (NfL) and S100B biomarkers with the presence of neurological manifestations and functional prognosis in COVID-19 patients.

Methods: A multicenter prospective cohort study was conducted in three hospitals in the Emilia-Romagna region, Italy, from March 2020 to April 2022.

Impact of neoadjuvant therapy on angioplastic lobectomy: a retrospective study.

Objectives: The efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy (NT) prior to angioplastic lobectomy (AL) in non-small cell lung cancer is unclear. This study assessed its impact on morbidity, mortality and 5-year survival.

Methods: We retrospectively analysed 114 patients who underwent AL at 2 tertiary centres from January 2000 to December 2020.

Prognostic factors and impact of management strategies for status epilepticus: The STEPPER study in the Emilia-Romagna region, Italy.

Objective: The STEPPER (Status Epilepticus in Emilia-Romagna) study aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics, prognostic factors, and treatment approaches of status epilepticus (SE) in adults of the Emilia-Romagna region (ERR), Northern Italy.

Methods: STEPPER, an observational, prospective, multicentric cohort study, was conducted across neurology units, emergency departments, and intensive care units of the ERR over 24 months (October 2019-October 2021), encompassing incident cases of SE. Patients were followed up for 30 days.
