Association between Socioeconomic Position of the Family and Adolescent Obesity in Germany-Analysis of the Mediating Role of Familial Determinants.

Background: Obesity's negative impact on young people's health has long been known. The family and its socioeconomic position (SEP) are key determinants in adolescent obesity. However, understanding which familial determinants explain the association remains limited.

Cone-beam computed tomography-guided shape-sensing robotic bronchoscopy electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy for pulmonary nodules.

Background: Electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB) and shape-sensing robotic-assisted bronchoscopy (ssRAB) are minimally invasive technologies for the diagnosis of pulmonary nodules. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) has shown to increase diagnostic yield by allowing real-time confirmation of position of lesion and biopsy tool. There is a lack of comparative studies of such platforms using CBCT guidance to overcome computed tomography to body divergence.

The roles of employment status and income in the mental health of informal caregivers in Germany.

Background: Informal caregivers often experience multiple negative consequences as a result of the informal care they provide. Among other factors, employment status, financial resources, and mental health are related to informal caregiving. This analysis examined the association between informal caregivers' employment status and their mental health, as well as the moderating effect of net household income on this relationship.

From detection to disappearance: A tale of a nodule.

Spindle cell lesions span from benign to aggressively malignant, the most concerning being the carcinoma, sarcoma, and melanoma species. While spindle cell carcinoma is the most common spindle cell lesion found along the upper aerodigestive tract (UADT), it only accounts for <0.5 % of pulmonary malignancies [1,2].
