Physiologic evaluation of the patient with lung cancer being considered for resectional surgery: Diagnosis and management of lung cancer, 3rd ed: American College of Chest Physicians evidence-based clinical practice guidelines.
TLDR
A careful preoperative physiologic assessment is useful for identifying those patients at increased risk with standard lung cancer resection and for enabling an informed decision by the patient about the appropriate therapeutic approach to treating his or her lung cancer.About:

Curative Treatment of Stage I Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer in Patients With Severe COPD: Stereotactic Radiotherapy Outcomes and Systematic Review
TL;DR: SBRT and surgery differ in risk of 30-day mortality in patients with severe COPD, and survival at 1 and 3 years is comparable between the two treatments.

Lung cancer in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
Theodoros Karampitsakos,Vasilios Tzilas,Rodoula Tringidou,Paschalis Steiropoulos,Vasilis Aidinis,Spyros Papiris,Demosthenes Bouros,Argyris Tzouvelekis +7 more
TL;DR: The current state of knowledge regarding pathogenetic commonalities between IPF and lung cancer is synthesized and clinical and therapeutic data that involve both disease entities are focused on.

Functional and postoperative outcomes after preoperative exercise training in patients with lung cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Raquel Sebio Garcia,Maria Isabel Yañez Brage,Esther Giménez Moolhuyzen,Catherine L Granger,Linda Denehy +4 more
TL;DR: Preoperative exercise-based training improves pulmonary function before surgery and reduces in-hospital length of stay and postoperative complications after lung resection surgery for lung cancer.

Impact of Increasing Age on Cause-Specific Mortality and Morbidity in Patients With Stage I Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer: A Competing Risks Analysis
Takashi Eguchi,Sarina Bains,Ming-Ching Lee,Kay See Tan,Boris Hristov,Daniel Buitrago,Manjit S. Bains,Robert J. Downey,James N. Huang,James M. Isbell,Bernard J. Park,Valerie W. Rusch,David R. Jones,Prasad S. Adusumilli +13 more
TL;DR: In patients who undergo curative-intent resection of stage I NSCLC, noncancer-specific mortality is a significant competing event, with an increasing impact as patient age increases.

Cecilia Pompili,Frank C. Detterbeck,Kostas Papagiannopoulos,Alan D. L. Sihoe,Kostas Vachlas,Mark W. Maxfield,Henry C. Lim,Alessandro Brunelli +7 more
TL;DR: Patients managed with digital drainage systems experienced a shorter duration of chest tube placement, shorter hospital stays, and higher satisfaction scores compared with those managed with traditional devices.

TL;DR: This research presents a novel and scalable approach called “Standardation of LUNG FUNCTION TESTing” that combines “situational awareness” and “machine learning” to solve the challenge of integrating nanofiltration into the energy system.

Derivation and Prospective Validation of a Simple Index for Prediction of Cardiac Risk of Major Noncardiac Surgery

TL;DR: In stable patients undergoing nonurgent major noncardiac surgery, this index can identify patients at higher risk for complications and may be useful for identification of candidates for further risk stratification with noninvasive technologies or other management strategies.

Effects of extended-release metoprolol succinate in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery (POISE trial): a randomised controlled trial.
TL;DR: The results highlight the risk in assuming a perioperative beta-blocker regimen has benefit without substantial harm, and the importance and need for large randomised trials in theperioperative setting.
