Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the most common diseases worldwide and is considered a public health problem. The World Health Organization estimates that about 210 million people have COPD. Disease-related mortality is more than 3 million, representing 5% of all deaths, 90% of this mortality being concentrated …
This phase II trial studies how well respiratory muscle training before surgery works in preventing lung complications after surgery in patients with stage I-IIIB lung cancer. Patients with lung cancer who choose to undergo surgical resection often have complications after surgery such as pneumonia, unplanned intubations, difficulty breathing and reduced …
CT imaging data from lung cancer (NSCLC and SCLC) patients prior to the initiation of immunotherapy (and possibly also after treatment) will be collected. The processing pipeline includes automatic tumor segmentation, radiomics feature extraction, feature selection, and construction of a classification model.
Osimertinib is a standard first-line treatment for patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer harboring an epidermal growth factor receptor exon 19 deletion or exon 21 L858R mutation. Although osimertinib can provide effective disease control, most patients eventually experience disease progression, and the primary lung tumor may remain an important …
An open, non-randomized, multicenter, single-arm dose-escalation design, phase 1 trial to study the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of JYP0322 in patients with ROS1+ locally advanced/metastatic solid tumors .
This observational study investigates the relationship between the duration of single-lung ventilation (SLV) and the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) such as pneumonia, pneumothorax, hemothorax, acute lung injury, and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in adult patients undergoing thoracic surgery. A total of 134 patients aged 18-85 years, scheduled …
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a disease of the lungs that makes it hard for people to breath. Those with COPD spend considerably more time sitting and lying and less time performing physical activity than healthy individuals. Those who are the most sedentary have a greater risk of heart …
Research is being conducted into chronic respiratory diseases, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, interstitial lung disease, and bronchiectasis. The investigation specifically focuses on sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in individuals with chronic respiratory disease. SDB encompasses a range of conditions, the most common of which is obstructive sleep apnoea. In …
Based on the Danish Health Authority's quality standards for municipal prevention services for citizens with chronic diseases, Steno Diabetes Center Copenhagen (SDCC), Halsnaes Municipality, North Zealand Hospital, and others have entered into a cross-sectoral collaboration entitled "Quality Development in Community Healthcare: Steno Tvaers - A Model for Differentiated Health Interventions …
Background Pneumonia caused by the bacteria Streptococcus pneumoniae is a leading cause of death among children under five years of age, especially in sub-Saharan Africa. Accurate diagnosis remains challenging due to the need for invasive procedures to obtain samples for culture-based diagnostic tests, which are not very sensitive for detecting …
