Background: Lipids are known to be involved in carcinogenesis, but the associations between lipid profiles and different lung cancer histological classifications remain unknown.
Methods: Individuals who participated in national adult health surveillance from 2012 to 2018 were included. For patients who developed lung cancer during follow-up, a 1:2 control group of nonlung cancer participants was selected after matching.
Background: Rearranged during transfection () fusions represent a distinct molecular subset of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with targeted therapeutic potential. Selpercatinib, a highly selective inhibitor, has demonstrated efficacy in various solid tumors harboring alterations. Here, we present a case highlighting the use and clinical outcomes of selpercatinib in a patient diagnosed with advanced lung adenocarcinoma harboring a fusion.

Background: This study aims to identify risk factors associated with tuberculosis-specific mortality (TSM) in older adult patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) and to develop a competing risk nomogram for TSM prediction.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study and randomly selected 528 older adult pulmonary TB patients hospitalized in designated hospitals in Henan Province between January 2015 and December 2020. The cumulative incidence function (CIF) was calculated for both TSM and non-tuberculosis-specific mortality (non-TSM).
