Insomnia in Patients With Metastatic Lung Cancer
This study evaluates how common insomnia (difficulties with sleep) is in patients with lung cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body.
Unilateral vs. Bilateral Lung Volume Reduction Surgery
This study compares two surgical approaches for patients with severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and severe emphysema: unilateral (operating on one lung) versus bilateral (operating on both lungs) lung volume reduction surgery (LVRS).
Brain-lung Interaction During Acute Respiratory Failure
Acute hypoxemic de novo respiratory failure (AHRF) is a common cause of admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). Its main cause is community-acquired pneumonia. Prevention of intubation relies, among other things, on high-flow nasal canulae (HFNC). However, approximately 40% of patients are intubated despite HFNC. Our team has developed …
Biological Investigation of Explanted Endobronchial Lung Valves Study
Rationale COPD is a severe, often progressive and currently incurable lung disease which affects both the upper airways (chronic bronchitis) as well as the lower airways (emphysema). In advanced stages of the disease air-trapping severely reduces the ability to breathe and subsequently the quality of life. A highly effective treatment …
Pathogenic Variants in Genes Associated With Lung Adenocarcinoma
The goal of this observational study is to describe the prevalence of germ line-pathogenic variants in Mexican patients with lung adenocarcinoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the prevalence of pathogenic variants in genes associated with lung adenocarcinoma in Mexican patients younger than fifty? Which clinical-pathological …
Liquid biopsiEs fOr luNg AllogRaft Damage classificatiOn - LEONARDO
LTx has the shortest survival of all solid organ transplants. The complex and time-demanding diagnostics of allograft dysfunction are a significant reason for this. The current study aims overarchingly to improve survival after lung transplantation (LTx) through precise and fast diagnostics. The specific aim is to develop direct-to-clinical implementation biomarkers …
Exercise-based Frailty Intervention in Lung Transplantation (XFIT)
The goal of XFIT study is to measure the safety of an 8-week telehealth-delivered exercise and behavioral training program to treat frailty in lung transplant candidates in their own home. The main questions XFIT aims to answer are: Is XFIT safe? Is XFIT feasible and acceptable by participants? Is XFIT …
Pulmonary Rehabilitation for Rural Patients With COPD
The purpose of this study is to test the uptake, effectiveness, and patient-caregiver-provider experience of a crucial treatment not provided in rural areas: pulmonary rehabilitation.
Comparison of Segmentectomy Versus Lobectomy for Lung Adenocarcinoma ≤ 2cm
This study aims to evaluate the superiority in recurrence-free survival of lobectomy compared with segmentectomy in patients with lung adenocarcinoma ≤ 2 cm with micropapillary and solid subtype positive by intraoperative frozen sections.
Pulmonary Immune Cell-microbiome Interactions in the Healthy Lung
The overall aim is to to provide a normal material for the composition and spatial heterogeneity of the following in the healthy lung: i) immune cell populations and their activation patterns, ii) the surrounding cytokine-chemokine milieu, including trans-compartmental fluxes of these mediators between the lung and bloodstream, and iii) the …
