With a growing number of clinically relevant biomarkers needed to guide the management patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), pathologists are keenly aware need collect adequate tissue not only for diagnosis, but also ancillary studies provide predictive and prognostic information. Small specimens collected by minimally invasive techniques such as fine needle aspiration core biopsy o...

Objective:
 Lung cancer remains the leading cause of deaths worldwide. The surgical approach to locally advanced non-small cell lung (NSCLC) goes beyond classical and requires a multidisciplinary both preoperatively postoperatively. In addition tumor size, location T3 tumors affects extent surgery.
 Materials Methods:
 Patients who underwent resection for between March 2019 Octob...

Lung diseases are one of the most frequent causes of pulmonary hypertension (PH). The development of PH influences the course of lung disease, worsening the clinical symptoms and prognosis. According to the most recent publications, PH in the course of lung diseases develops as a result of both "parenchymal" and vascular pathology, in the patients with genetic predisposition. Prolonged infectio...

We present a case of a patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease whose myocardial perfusion SPECT imaging demonstrated diffusely decreased Tc-99m sestamibi lung uptake ("lucent lungs"); our results indicate that there may be a lower limit of normal for lung-to-heart ratio, below which pathology can be inferred.

Respirovirus infection can cause viral pneumonia and acute lung injury (ALI). The interleukin-1 (IL-1) family consists of proinflammatory cytokines that play essential roles in regulating immune and inflammatory responses in vivo. IL-1 signaling is associated with protection against respiratory influenza virus infection by mediation of the pulmonary anti-viral immune response and inflammation. ...

Background: Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer related death in Ireland. The majority of lung cancers are inoperable at the time of diagnosis and consequently the overall 5 year survival is less than 10%. The objective of the ProActive Lung Cancer Detection (PALCAD) study was to evaluate whether low dose chest computed tomographic scanning (LDCCT) can detect early stage asymptomatic...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effect of curcumin on lung lesion induced by intestinal ischemia reperfusion injury (IIR). METHODS Rats were divided into four groups: sham, intestinal IIR (IIR), 1 mg/kg of curcumin treatment group (1 mg/kg), and 5 mg/kg of curcumin treatment group (5 mg/kg). Curcumin was given respectively (1 mg/kg and 5 mg/kg) following the abo...
