Background: Previous studies show that overexpression of stathmin involved in the malignant biological behavior of lung cancer. This investigation is to disclose the expression status of stathmin in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and its clinical value for the diagnosis and prognosis to lung cancer.
Methods: The expression of stathmin in cells and tissues of NSCLC was examined using immunohistochemistry (IHC), in-situ hybridization (ISH), and Western blot. The correlation between stathmin expression and survival of lung cancer patients was evaluated by a Kaplan-Meier method and the multiple regression analysis.
Results: NSCLC tissues and cells showed an overexpression of stathmin compared with normal lung tissues and cells (p< 0.05). And the expression level of stathmin was significantly associated with lung adenocarcinoma (LAC) (p< 0.05), lymphatic invasion (p< 0.05) and advanced stages of NSCLC (p< 0.05). Moreover, overexpression of stathmin predicted a reduced survival (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Increased stathmin correlated with pathologic grade, lymphatic invasion, advanced stage and poor survival of NSCLC, which indicated that stathmin could serve as a potential biomarker of NSCLC.

Limited data exist on cancer screening in carceral facilities. This study evaluates the feasibility and outcomes of a population-based lung cancer screening initiative in a carceral setting. This is a retrospective review of a lung cancer screening event at the Rhode Island Department of Corrections.

Importance: Research indicates that social drivers of health are associated with cancer screening adherence, although the exact magnitude of these associations remains unclear.
Objective: To investigate the associations between individual-level social risks and nonadherence to guideline-recommended cancer screenings.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This cross-sectional study used 2022 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data from 39 US states and Washington, DC.

The combined use of tocilizumab (TCZ) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in cancer treatment is gaining attention, but preclinical studies are lacking. Our study aims to investigate the synergistic anti-tumor effect of TCZ combined with ICIs and its role in treating immune-related adverse events (irAEs). The clinical significance of high interleukin-6 (IL-6) expression in tumor patients was analyzed from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database.

Although immune checkpoint inhibitors have changed the treatment paradigm for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), not all patients benefit from them. Therefore, there is an urgent need to explore novel immune checkpoint inhibitors. Neuropilin-1 (Nrp-1) is a unique immune checkpoint capable of exerting antitumor effects through CD8 T cells.

Background: Due to its strong immunogenicity and tumor specificity, neoplastic antigen has emerged as an immunotherapy target with wide therapeutic prospect and clinical application value. Anti-programmed death-1 (PD-1) antibodies reinvigorate T cell-mediated antitumor immunity. So, we conducted single-arm trial to assess the safety and efficacy of PD-1 blockade(Camrelizumab)-activated neoantigen specific cellular therapy (aNASCT) on advanced relapsed non-small lung cancer(NSCLC)(ClinicalTrials.
