Overall survival (OS) of lung cancer varies greatly with individual patients in the global setting. Multiple factors may affect the prognosis. Different antibiotics have significant effects on the prognosis of lung cancer patients. The intestinal microbiome, nutritional status and inflammatory factors all have significant impact on OS of lung cancer patients.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess how pandemic-related health concerns and discrimination affected cancer screenings among Asian American women (AAW).
Methods: A two-phase explanatory mixed-methods study was conducted. In phase 1, a survey was distributed among AAW eligible for lung, breast, or colorectal cancer screening to assess delays during the pandemic, concerns about contracting coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), barriers to care, and experiences of discrimination.

Rak trzustki jest często występującym nowotworem o bardzo złych rokowaniach i agresywnym przebiegu. Podstawową przyczyn wysoce niekorzystnych rokowań pacjentów z rakiem trzustki jest jego długotrwale bezobjawowy rozwój, co powoduje postawienie diagnozy na etapie znacznego zaawansowania procesu nowotworowego. Pomimo szeroko zakrojonych badań nad uskutecznieniem diagnostyki i leczenia tego nowotworu, przeżywalność pacjentów wzrasta powoli i nieznacznie.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) still causes death in elderly and immunocompromised individuals, for whom the sustainability of the vaccine response may be limited. Antiviral treatments, such as remdesivir or molnupiravir, have demonstrated limited clinical efficacy. Nirmatrelvir, an acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) major protease inhibitor, is clinically effective but has been associated with viral rebound and antiviral resistance.

However, the optimal strategy to combine EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) with radiotherapy for maximum efficacy and minimal toxicity is still uncertain. Notably, EVs, which serve as communication mediators among tumor cells, play a crucial role in the anti-tumor immune response.
