Objective: The aim: To increase the efficiency of surgical treatment of patients with chronic lung abscesses by developing mini-invasive methods of surgical treatment using electrosurgical technologies.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: Conducted study of the results of surgical treatment of 78 patients with chronic lung abscesses operated from 2011 to 2021. Patients were divided into two groups: the main group (37 patients who were treated using developed technologies) and a comparison group (41 patients, treated using traditional tactics).

Results: Results: Transthoracic and endobronchial sanitation of the purulent cavity in the lung at the first stage of treatment contributed to the rapid elimination of inflammation and significantly accelerated the regeneration of lung tissue. Clinical effectiveness in the main group was expressed in reducing the phenomena of intoxication, decrease in Leukocyte intoxication index (LII) (early as on day 5 after surgery), on the 10th day, a significant reduction in patients bacterial excretion was noted (in the main group by 18.9%, in the comparison group - by 14.6%), the average time of reducing the abscess cavity by 1/4 of the volume 6 days less, the healing time of the cavity of the AL which is on average 13 and 16 days, respectively, less.

Conclusion: Conclusions: The developed methods of surgical interventions made it possible to significantly positively influence the level of endogenous intoxication indicators, avoid resection surgical interventions, reduce the number of postoperative complications, avoid damage to neighboring organs, reduce the time of patients with achieving a stable positive effect.

Background: Lung cancer surgery is associated with a high incidence of chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP), which necessitates long-term analgesic prescriptions. However, while essential for managing pain, these have shown various adverse effects. Current guidelines recommend using peripheral nerve blocks over epidural anaesthesia for perioperative analgesia in minimally invasive thoracic surgery (MITS).

Progress of CCL20-CCR6 in the airways: a promising new therapeutic target.

J Inflamm (Lond)

December 2024

Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University, Hefei, Anhui, 230022, China.

The chemokine CCL20, a small cytokine that belongs to the C-C chemokine family, interacts with its homologous receptor CCR6, which is expressed on wide range of cell types. According to current research, the CCL20-CCR6 has been established as acritical player in a diverse range of inflammatory, oncogenic, and autoimmune diseases. Within the respiratory system, CCL20-CCR6 demonstrates heightened expression in conditions such as allergic asthma, chronic airway inflammation, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other respiratory diseases, which is conducive to the inflammatory mediators recruitment and tumor microenvironment remodeling.

Background: To investigate the effect of postoperative supplementary parenteral nutrition (SPN) containing varying energy intake levels during the early postoperative period on the clinical outcomes of patients diagnosed with gastric cancer.

Methods: Data from 237 patients, who were diagnosed with gastric cancer between January 2016 and June 2022, were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on mean daily SPN energy intake: low (L-SPN; < 20 kcal/kg/day); and high (H-SPN; ≥ 20 kcal/kg/day).

Background: The Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) is a frequently used mortality predictor based on a scoring system for the number and type of patient comorbidities health researchers have used since the late 1980s. The initial purpose of the CCI was to classify comorbid conditions, which could alter the risk of patient mortality within a 1-year time frame. However, the CCI may not accurately reflect risk among American Indians because they are a small proportion of the US population and possibly lack representation in the original patient cohort.

Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are multipotent adult stem cells which possess immunomodulatory and repair capabilities. In this study, we investigated whether MSC therapy could modulate inflammation and lung damage in the lungs of Scnn1b-transgenic mice overexpressing the β-subunit of the epithelial sodium channel (β-ENaC), a model with features of Cystic Fibrosis lung disease. Human bone marrow derived MSC cells were intravenously delivered to mice, prior to collection of bronchoalveolar lavage (BALF) and tissue.
