Combined Immunoscore for Prognostic Stratification of Early Stage Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer.

TL;DR: The combined PT immunoscore (CD8+, CD4+, and CD68) integrated with dNLR may be a promising marker for the development of an integrated Tumor, Node, Metastasis (TNM) immunos core.

Expression of DR5 and c‑FLIP proteins as novel prognostic biomarkers for non‑small cell lung cancer patients treated with surgical resection and chemotherapy.

TL;DR: In conclusion, overexpression of DR5 and loss of c-FLIP expression may serve as novel favorable prognostic biomarkers for NSCLC patients treated with chemotherapy after radical resection and used as predictors for tumor response to chemotherapy drugs.

Synchronous multiple lung cancers presenting as multifocal pure ground glass nodules: are whole-body positron emission tomography/computed tomography and brain enhanced magnetic resonance imaging necessary?

TL;DR: Whole-body PET-CT scans and brain enhanced MRIs are not necessary for patients with multifocal pGGNs, and no lymph node metastases found on final pathology.

Long-term outcomes of video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy for clinical N1 non-small cell lung cancer: A propensity score-weighted comparison with open thoracotomy

TL;DR: V VATS lobectomy is feasible for patients with cN1 disease, providing comparable perioperative outcomes, oncologic efficacy, and long-term outcomes as open thoracotomy as well as overall survival and recurrence-free survival.

Large Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma Shares Similarity with Small Cell Carcinoma on the Basis of Clinical and Pathological Features.

TL;DR: In clinical features, survival and immunoprofile, LCNEC showed more similarity with SCLC rather than carcinoid, which might guide novel therapy for pulmonary NETs.

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.
