TL;DR: The authors conducted genome-wide association meta-analyses for the number of cigarettes smoked per day (CPD) in smokers and smoking initiation (n = 46,481) using samples from the ENGAGE Consortium.

TL;DR: The use of PET-CT for preoperative staging of NSCLC reduced both the total number of thoracotomies and the number of futile thoracotomy but did not affect overall mortality.

TL;DR: Screening with low dose computed tomography may facilitate minimal invasive treatment and can be performed with a relatively low rate of false-positive screen results compared with previous studies on lung cancer screening.

TL;DR: A risk stratification approach should be used for future lung cancer low-dose CT programmes and patients should be provided with information on the benefits and harms of screening to ensure that patients receive the most appropriate treatment.

CT screening for lung cancer brings forward early disease. The randomised Danish Lung Cancer Screening Trial: status after five annual screening rounds with low-dose CT

TL;DR: CT screening for lung cancer brings forward early disease, and at this point no stage shift or reduction in mortality was observed, indicating some degree of over diagnosis and need for longer follow-up.
