Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the possibility of defining new imaging criteria to predict less-invasive clinical (c)-stage IA2-IA3 solid predominant lung adenocarcinoma using the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) as the cutoff value.

Methods: Consecutive 364 patients who underwent anatomical resection with mediastinal lymphadenectomy and positron emission tomography for c-stage IA2-IA3 solid predominant lung adenocarcinoma with a tumor diameter < 3 cm were retrospectively evaluated. Less-invasive cancer was defined as the absence of nodal involvement, lymphovascular or pleural invasion, or spread through air spaces.

Background The management of neutropenic fever patients remains challenging. Patients' individual baseline body temperature may provide diagnostic and prognostic value. Methods This study is a retrospective analysis of 92 adults admitted for neutropenic fever to model the length of stay (LOS) and the ability to find a definitive diagnosis using the deviation of patients' temperature on admission from their outpatient baseline, acuity on admission, neutropenia level and persistence, fever persistence, and patients' age.

There is currently a lack of standardized criteria for evaluating clinical complete response (cCR) in rectal cancer post-neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT), often resulting in discrepancies with true pathological complete response (pCR). Staging local lesions via MRI is challenged by tissue edema and fibrosis post-nCRT, while endoscopic biopsy accuracy is compromised by residual cancer foci in the muscular layer. Transanal local excision offers a relatively accurate assessment of lesion regression but poses challenges including impaired anal function and elevated complication rates.
