164 patients with early cancer of the lungs, i.e., without extrathoracic spread or distant metastasis, were examined. Subjective and objective characteristics of the pain were studied. A correlation was found between the location of the neoplasm, the location of the pain and the characteristics of the sensory changes. These observations may be a useful contribution to the early diagnosis of primary carcinomas of the lungs.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most lethal malignancies worldwide and the most common form of liver cancer. Despite global efforts toward early diagnosis and effective treatments, HCC is often diagnosed at advanced stages, where conventional therapies frequently lead to resistance and/or high recurrence rates. Therefore, novel biomarkers and promising medications are urgently required.

Background: During the COVID-19 pandemic, hospitals were overwhelmed with infected patients, leading to a disruption in the delivery of services. Patients with cancer, including breast cancer, rely on timely treatment, as delays can reduce survival rates. In this study, we investigated delays in treatment and the factors contributing to delays in chemotherapy and radiotherapy for these patients.

Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) is a lymphatic cancer of steadily growing incidence. Its diagnostic and follow-up rely on the analysis of clinical biomarkers and 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-PET/CT images. In this context, we target the problem of assisting in the early identification of high-risk DLBCL patients from both images and tabular clinical data.
