Background: Lung cancer with interstitial pneumonia is known to be a refractory disease. We explored whether systemic inflammatory response markers are associated with outcomes in these patients.
Methods: The participants of this multicenter retrospective study, consisting of 17 medical institutions, were treatment-naïve patients with lung cancer combined with interstitial pneumonia who underwent surgical resection between 2012 and 2017.
An 11-year-old girl with quiescent ulcerative colitis had sustained elevation of liver enzymes.

Methods: TOB inhalation was performed in eight series of trials in seven ventilator-dependent children who had intratracheal Pseudomonas aeruginosa and suffered from recurrent pneumonia. Their age at the initiation of therapy was 68 ± 50 months (mean ± standard deviation), whereas the duration of treatment was 30 ± 22 months.
