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:

Lung Resection in the Postpneumonectomy Patient.
Megumi Asai,Walter J. Scott +1 more
TL;DR: Pulmonary resection after pneumonectomy is a reasonable option in selected patients and stereotactic body radiotherapy is a promising alternative for inoperable patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Factors associated with postoperative costs following anatomic lung resections without major complications
TL;DR: The authors were able to identify clinical factors associated with postoperative costs in patients without major complications and these findings may help administrators to tailor future individualized lung resection reimbursement tariffs based on patient characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison between quantitative computed tomography, scintigraphy, and anatomical methods for prediction of postoperative FEV1 and DLCO: effects of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease status and resected lobes.
Masanori Yokoba,Tsuyoshi Ichikawa,Shinya Harada,Kazu Shiomi,Masashi Mikubo,Mototsugu Ono,Dai Sonoda,Yukitoshi Satoh,Hironori Hanawa,Katsuhiko Naoki,Masato Katagiri +10 more
TL;DR: The CTLAV method may be the method of choice instead of S for calculating ppoFEV1 and ppo%DLCO in patients who undergo lung lobectomy despite the presence or absence of airflow limitation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Size-capacity mismatch in the lung: a novel predictor for complications after lung cancer surgery.
Junichi Murakami,Kazuhiro Ueda,Masataro Hayashi,Taiga Kobayashi,Yoshie Kunihiro,Kimikazu Hamano +5 more
TL;DR: Lung size-function mismatch was identified as the best predictor for cardiopulmonary complications after major lung resection for cancer among various spirometry- and CT-derived parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterizing spatial differences between SPECT-ventilation and SPECT-perfusion in patients with lung cancer undergoing radiotherapy.
Farnoush Forghani,Taylor Patton,Jennifer J. Kwak,David Thomas,Quentin Diot,Chad G. Rusthoven,Richard Castillo,Edward M. Castillo,Inga S. Grills,Thomas Guerrero,Moyed Miften,Yevgeniy Vinogradskiy +11 more
TL;DR: This study investigates agreement between ventilation and perfusion for lung cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy by comparing voxel-wise Spearman correlation- coefficients of patients with stage III lung cancer from a prospective protocol.

Standardisation of spirometry
Martin R. Miller,John L. Hankinson,Vito Brusasco,Felip Burgos,Richard Casaburi,Allan L. Coates,Robert O. Crapo,Paul L. Enright,C.P.M. van der Grinten,P. Gustafsson,R. Jensen,D.C. Johnson,Neil R. MacIntyre,Roy T. McKay,Daniel Navajas,O. F. Pedersen,Riccardo Pellegrino,Giovanni Viegi,J. Wanger +18 more
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.

Hospital Volume and Surgical Mortality in the United States
John D. Birkmeyer,Andrea E. Siewers,Emily Finlayson,Therese A. Stukel,F. Lee Lucas,Ida Batista,H. Gilbert Welch,David E. Wennberg +7 more
TL;DR: Mortality decreased as volume increased for all 14 types of procedures, but the relative importance of volume varied markedly according to the type of procedure.

Derivation and Prospective Validation of a Simple Index for Prediction of Cardiac Risk of Major Noncardiac Surgery
Thomas H. Lee,Edward R. Marcantonio,Carol M. Mangione,Eric J. Thomas,Carisi Anne Polanczyk,E. F. Cook,D. J. Sugarbaker,M. C. Donaldson,Robert Poss,Kalon K.L. Ho,L. E. Ludwig,A. Pedan,Lee Goldman +12 more
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.
