Identification and verification of a prognostic ferroptosis-related lncRNAs signature for patients with lung adenocarcinoma.

Lung cancer has been identified as one of the deadliest malignant tumors worldwide. Mounting evidence suggests that ferroptosis is a well-known non-apoptotic cell death process that participates in pathological mechanisms and is a new cancer treatment strategy. Aberrantly expressed long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) that drive lung cancer progression have attracted increasing attention.

[Video-assisted thoracoscopic radical resection of early-stage non-small cell lung cancer].

Objective: To study the reliability and feasibility of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for radical resection of early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Methods: Fifty-four patients with NSCLC treated between Jan. 2007 and Jun.
