Prognostic analysis of patients with mutant and wild-type EGFR gene lung adenocarcinoma

TL;DR: Investigation of the relationship between epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutation and clinicopathological features of lung adenocarcinoma, and the prognostic and therapeutic value of EGFR found EGFR-TKI treatment was an independent positive predictor in patients with EGFR gene mutation.

PD-L1+ lung cancer stem cells modify the metastatic lymph-node immunomicroenvironment in nsclc patients.

TL;DR: The frequency of PD-L1 + CSCs associates with an altered T-cell frequency and phenotype indicating that C SCs can affect the immune system, and may be an interesting target for immunotherapy.

Enhanced recovery after surgery: adherence and outcomes in elderly patients undergoing VATS lobectomy.

TL;DR: Elderly patients adhere to an ERAS protocol similarly to younger ones, age did not significantly influence LoS, and ERAS pathway in VATS lobectomy patients seems to be beneficial regardless of age.

Machine learning application in personalised lung cancer recurrence and survivability prediction

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors integrate genomic, clinical and demographic data of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and introduce copy number variation (CNV) and mutation information of 15 selected genes to generate predictive models for recurrence and survivability.

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.
