Association between epidermal growth factor receptor gene mutation status and short-term efficacy of first-line platinum-containing chemotherapy in advanced non-small cell lung cancer

TL;DR: Data from the present study suggest that EGFR gene mutation has independent predictive value for the efficacy of first-line chemotherapy in patients with advanced NSCLC.

Descriptive Analysis of First-Line Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Treatment with Pembrolizumab in Tumors Expressing PD-L1 ≥ 50% in Patients Treated in Quebec’s University Teaching Hospitals (DALP-First Study)

TL;DR: In this article , the authors describe and assess the real-world use of pembrolizumab; report progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and immune-related adverse events (IRAEs); and compare outcomes between a fixed dose (FD) and a weight-based capped dose (WCD).

Are sequential compression devices routinely necessary following enhanced recovery after thoracic surgery?

TL;DR: Routine SCD use may not be required when implementing ERAS protocols because clinically significant VTE rates were minimal and larger studies are required to confirm these results.

LCSCNet: A multi-level approach for lung cancer stage classification using 3D dense convolutional neural networks with concurrent squeeze-and-excitation module

TL;DR: In this paper , a multi-level 3D deep convolutional neural network, LCSCNet (Lung Cancer Stage Classification Network), was proposed to classify lung cancer stages based on the Tumor, Node, and Metastasis (TNM) standard.

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.
