The Prognostic Value of Non-Predominant Micropapillary Pattern in a Large Cohort of Resected Invasive Lung Adenocarcinoma Measuring ≤3 cm

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of non-predominant micropapillary pattern on disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) was analyzed in small-sized invasive lung adnocarcinoma patients.

Patient motivations for non-adherence to lung cancer screening in a military population.

TL;DR: Lack of perceived contact for follow-up was expressed as the primary reason for non-compliance in the screening program, and adherence rates to lung cancer screening may be increased through improved contact with patients via multiple avenues (i.e., phone, email, and letter).

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.
