Article Synopsis
  • A study in France, called the SISCOVID study, looked at lung health in patients who recovered from COVID-19 three and six months after being discharged from the hospital.
  • Of the 320 patients assessed, many faced ongoing breathing issues and lung function problems, with those who had severe COVID-19 experiencing more significant complications.
  • The findings indicate that over half of the patients had persistent dyspnoea and lung impairment at six months, highlighting the importance of ongoing monitoring and research into the long-term effects of COVID-19 on lung health.

Introduction: Cancer therapy has greatly progressed in the past few years, due to development of immune checkpoint proteins. These immunotherapies, when applied to eligible patients, have significantly reduced mortality but are prone to induce immune side-effects, including pituitary disorder and low adreno-corticotropic hormone (ACTH) and cortisol levels. We aimed to assess the prevalence and etiology of corticotropic insufficiency through a systematic screening of cortisol and ACTH levels in patients with lung cancer treated with nivolumab perfusion.

Immunological studies claimed that atopic and non-atopic asthma share more similarities than differences. However, these two phenotypes of asthma are considered to be distinguishable upon distinct clinical patterns, which were not systematically assessed before in a large population. We studied characteristics discriminating atopic from non-atopic asthma among 751 asthmatic patients and 80 factors were analysed in univariate and multivariate analysis.
