The incidence and mortality trends of lung cancer in Slovakia are not favorable. In our single-center, non-interventional retrospective cohort study, we provide comprehensive information about Slovakia's non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patient population. We evaluated how the introduction of immunotherapy agents affected the survival of NSCLC patients and tried to identify whether the PD-L1 expression level was associated with a negative patient survival effect.

(2) This was a non-interventional retrospective cohort study of adult and pediatric SBS patients treated with teduglutide. Primary and secondary endpoints were the results of teduglutide use at 12 weeks and 6 months after the initiation of treatment, compared to baseline.

- The study investigates the 5-year survival rates of patients with germ cell testicular cancer (TC) in the Slovak Republic, revealing that their survival rates are better than for other cancers.
- Researchers analyzed data from TC patients diagnosed between 1993 and 2007, categorizing them by histopathological type (seminomas vs. non-seminomas) and age (under 40 vs. 40 and older).
- Results showed an overall 5-year survival rate of 92.21% with a slight improvement noticed over time, although older patients had significantly worse survival outcomes compared to younger patients, indicating the potential impact of advancements in diagnosis and treatment.
