Journal ArticleDOI
18F-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) for the planning of radiotherapy in lung cancer: high impact in patients with atelectasis.
Ursula Nestle,K. Walter,Sylvia Schmidt,Norbert Licht,C Nieder,Babak Motaref,Dirk Hellwig,Marcus Niewald,Dieter Ukena,Carl M. Kirsch,Gerhard W. Sybrecht,Klaus Schnabel +11 more
TL;DR: In this retrospective analysis, the information provided by FDG-PET would have contributed to a substantial reduction of the size of radiotherapy portals, particularly for patients with tumor-associated dys- or atelectasis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of preoperative chemoradiation in addition to preoperative chemotherapy: a randomised trial in stage III non-small-cell lung cancer
Michael Thomas,Michael Thomas,C. Rübe,Petra Hoffknecht,Hans N. Macha,Lutz Freitag,Albert Linder,Norman Willich,Michael Hamm,Gerhard W. Sybrecht,Dieter Ukena,Karl-Matthias Deppermann,Cornelia Dröge,Dorothea Riesenbeck,Achim Heinecke,Cristina Sauerland,K. Junker,Wolfgang E. Berdel,Michael Semik +18 more
TL;DR: In patients with stage III NSCLC amenable to surgery, preoperative chemoradiation in addition to chemotherapy increases pathological response and mediastinal downstaging, but does not improve survival.
Journal ArticleDOI
18F-FDG PET for Mediastinal Staging of Lung Cancer: Which SUV Threshold Makes Sense?
Dirk Hellwig,Thomas P Graeter,Dieter Ukena,Andreas Groeschel,Gerhard W. Sybrecht,Hans-Joachim Schaefers,Carl-Martin Kirsch +6 more
TL;DR: For mediastinal staging, the choice of an SUV of 2.5 as the threshold is justified because FNR + FPR is minimized, and the resulting high negative predictive value of 96% allows the omission of mediastinoscopy in patients with negative mediastsinal findings on 18F-FDG PET images.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differences in CMV-specific T-cell levels and long-term susceptibility to CMV infection after kidney, heart and lung transplantation.
Urban Sester,Barbara Gärtner,Heinrike Wilkens,Bernhard Schwaab,Rolf Wössner,Ingrid Kindermann,Matthias Girndt,Andreas Meyerhans,Nikolaus Mueller-Lantzsch,Hans-Joachim Schäfers,Gerhard W. Sybrecht,Hans Köhler,Martina Sester +12 more
TL;DR: Monitoring CMV‐specific CD4 T cells may serve as a measure for long‐term disease susceptibility and may contribute to an improved management of CMV complications after lung transplantation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Translation Initiation Factor eIF-4gamma is Encoded by an Amplified Gene and Induces an Immune Response in Squamous Cell Lung Carcinoma
TL;DR: The identification of several antigens which elicit an immune response in a squamous cell lung carcinoma patient including eIF-4gamma, which is encoded by an amplified gene and possibly plays a crucial part in the development of squamous Cell Lung carcinoma.
