Outcomes of sublobar resection versus lobectomy for stage I non-small cell lung cancer: a 13-year analysis.

TLDR
Although sublobar resection is thought to be associated with increased incidence of local recurrence when compared with lobectomy, a long-term analysis of the outcomes of these resections for stage I non-small cell lung cancer found no difference in disease-free survival between the two types of resection for stage IA patients but slightly worse disease- free survival for stage IB.

International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer/American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society International Multidisciplinary Classification of Lung Adenocarcinoma

TL;DR: This new adenocarcinoma classification is needed to provide uniform terminology and diagnostic criteria, especially for bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC), the overall approach to small nonresection cancer specimens, and for multidisciplinary strategic management of tissue for molecular and immunohistochemical studies.

Treatment of stage I and II non-small cell lung cancer: Diagnosis and management of lung cancer, 3rd ed: American College of Chest Physicians evidence-based clinical practice guidelines.

TL;DR: Surgical resection remains the primary and preferred approach to the treatment of stage I and II NSCLC, and mediastinal lymph node sampling at the time of curative intent surgical resection can be performed without increased morbidity.

ERS/ESTS clinical guidelines on fitness for radical therapy in lung cancer patients (surgery and chemo-radiotherapy)

TL;DR: In this article, a collaboration of multidisciplinary experts on the functional evaluation of lung cancer patients has been facilitated by the European Respiratory Society (ERS) and the European Society of Thoracic Surgery (ESTS), in order to draw up recommendations and provide clinicians with clear, up-to-date guidelines on fitness for surgery and chemo-radiotherapy.

Ers/ests clinical guidelines on fitness for radical therapy in lung cancer patients (surgery and chemo-radiotherapy) . a. brunelli, a. charloux, c.t. bolliger, g. rocco, j-p. sculier, g. varela

TL;DR: Clinical practice guidelines were generated and finalised in a functional algorithm for risk stratification of the lung resection candidates, emphasising cardiological evaluation, forced expiratory volume in 1 s, systematic carbon monoxide lung diffusion capacity and exercise testing.

Outcomes after stereotactic lung radiotherapy or wedge resection for stage I non-small-cell lung cancer.

TL;DR: Both lung SBRT and wedge resection are reasonable treatment options for stage I NSCLC patients ineligible for anatomic lobectomy and overall survival was higher in surgical patients, but OS was higher with wedge.

Nonparametric Estimation from Incomplete Observations

TL;DR: In this article, the product-limit (PL) estimator was proposed to estimate the proportion of items in the population whose lifetimes would exceed t (in the absence of such losses), without making any assumption about the form of the function P(t).

Revisions in the International System for Staging Lung Cancer

TL;DR: Analysis of a collected database representing all clinical, surgical-pathologic, and follow-up information for 5,319 patients treated for primary lung cancer confirmed the validity of the TNM and stage grouping classification schema.

Applied nonparametric statistics

TL;DR: In this article, applied nonparametric statistics are applied to the problem of applied non-parametric statistical data collection in the context of the application of applied NN statistics, including:

Randomized trial of lobectomy versus limited resection for T1 N0 non-small cell lung cancer

TL;DR: Compared with lobectomy, limited pulmonary resection does not confer improved perioperative morbidity, mortality, or late postoperative pulmonary function and lobectomy still must be considered the surgical procedure of choice for patients with peripheral T1 N0 non-small cell lung cancer.
