Effector Memory T Cells and CD45RO+ Regulatory T Cells in Metastatic vs. Non-Metastatic Lymph Nodes in Lung Cancer Patients

TL;DR: Lymphocytes play a leading role in regulation of the immune system in lung cancer patients and the recognition of T cells profile may help in prediction of effectiveness of anticancer immunotherapy.

Different clinical features between patients with ROS1-positive and ALK-positive advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

TL;DR: Although ROS1-positive and ALK-positive NSCLCs show similar clinical features, the differences may help clinicians to identify patients requiring further genotyping at initial diagnosis.

Evaluation of Amide Proton Transfer‐Weighted Imaging for Lung Cancer Subtype and Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor: A Comparative Study With Diffusion and Metabolic Parameters

TL;DR: In this article , a non-invasive assessment of lung cancer subtype and EGFR status using amide proton transfer-weighted imaging (APTWI), diffusion weighted imaging (DWI), and 2-[18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose positron emission tomography (18F-FDG PET) was performed.

The IASLC Lung Cancer Staging Project: Proposals for the Revisions of the T Descriptors in the Forthcoming Eighth Edition of the TNM Classification for Lung Cancer

TL;DR: Recommendations are to subclassify T1 into T1a, T1b, and T1c, and to group involvement of main bronchus as T2 regardless of distance from carina; to group partial and total atelectasis/pneumonitis as T1; to reclassify diaphragm invasion as T4; and to delete mediastinal pleura invasion as a T descriptor.
