A 76-year-old man taking anti-tuberculous drugs for active pulmonary tuberculosis was admitted to our hospital requiring further examination of a pulmonary mass in the left upper lobe. He had had right lower lobectomy and partial middle lobectomy for non-small-cell lung cancer two years before admission. Retrospectively, the left upper lobe mass had been gradually growing for about 2 months. We performed a transbronchial lung biopsy of the pulmonary mass, and diagnosed small-cell lung cancer. This report describes a rare case of small-cell lung cancer appearing during treatment for active pulmonary tuberculosis after non-small-cell lung cancer surgery.

Importance: Sensitivity to environmental stress and adversity may influence lung cancer risk, highlighting a critical link between psychosocial factors and cancer etiology.
Objective: To evaluate whether genetically estimated sensitivity to environmental stress and adversity is associated with lung cancer risk.
Design, Setting, And Participants: Data were obtained from a genome-wide association study identifying 37 independent genetic variants strongly associated with sensitivity to environmental stress and adversity and a cross-ancestry genome-wide meta-analysis from the International Lung Cancer Consortium.

Radio-immunotherapy has antitumor activity but also causes toxicity, which limits its clinical application. JS-201 is a dual antibody targeting PD-1 and TGF-β signaling. We investigated the antitumour effect of JS-201 combined with radiotherapy and the effect on radiation-induced lung injury (RILI).
