Malignant pleural effusion (MPE) is a common feature in patients with advanced or metastatic malignancies. While significant progress has been made in understanding the biology of pleural effusions, further research is needed to uncover the subsequent behavior of tumor cells following their invasion into the pleural space. This report utilizes flow cytometry to analyze DNA content abnormalities (aneuploidy) and cell cycle status, shedding light on the tumor cell populations present in MPE samples from a patient with lung adenocarcinoma during treatment.

Background: Conditional survival (CS) analysis can estimate further survival probabilities based on the time already survived, providing dynamic updates for prognostic information. This study aimed to develop a CS-nomogram to promote individualized disease management for stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Methods: This study included patients diagnosed with stage III NSCLC in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database from 2010 to 2017 ( = 3,512).

Influenza A viruses have been a threat to human health for the past 100 years. Understanding the dynamics and pathogenicity of the influenza viruses is of great value in controlling the influenza pandemic. Fluorescent protein-carrying recombinant influenza virus is a substantially useful tool for studying viral characteristics and high-throughput screening .

Background: Dynamic chest radiography (DCR) is useful for detecting preoperative pleural adhesions, predicting operation time and blood loss, and determining the surgical approach. However, since DCR evaluations are subjective, an objective index was needed. Therefore, we focused on the low motion area (LMA) ratio derived from the objective data obtained through DCR.

Background: The aim of our study is to compare the effect of the 30° reverse Trendelenburg position combined with the beach chair position on respiratory parameters in laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) with the 30° reverse Trendelenburg position alone.
Material And Method: Fifty patients with body mass index > 30 were included in the study. The patients were divided into two groups; in the control group, the standard 30° reverse Trendelenburg.
