Plasma Metabolomics as a Tool to Distinguish PET-positive Malignant From PET-positive Benign Nodules
Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) is an important technique in lung cancer staging, where almost no lung lesion goes undetected. However, PET-CT often fails to discriminate between malignant and non-malignant PET-positive solitary pulmonary nodules (SPNs) with a specificity of only 23%. 40-50% of those patients are advised to repeat their …
The Effects of Different Ventilation Modes on Patients With Pulmonary Lobe Resection
The objective of this study was to discuss the effects of different ventilation modes on patients with plasma inflammatory factor and respiratory function in patients with pulmonary removal.
Breathe Easier With Tadalafil Therapy for Dyspnea in COPD-PH
The investigators will study whether the drug tadalafil improves shortness of breath in 126 Veterans with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and high blood pressure in the lungs. The investigators will also assess whether tadalafil improves quality of life, home daily physical activity, exercise endurance, the frequency of acute flares …
DREAM: Double Lung Transplant REgistry Aimed for Lung-limited Malignancies
This is a prospective observational registration trial for patients who undergo lung transplantation for the treatment of the select groups of medically refractory cancers affecting the lungs alone without extrapulmonary nodal and distant metastasis.
Biology of Young Lung Cancer Study: The YOUNG LUNG Study
The purpose of this research study is to learn more about lung cancer (NSCLC or SCLC) diagnosed in adults at ages 45 or younger.
Lung Cancer Registry
Lung cancer is the second most common cancer in Austria with 2.868 men and 2.009 women diagnosed in 2016. Reflecting the high mortality of this disease, 2.415 men and 1.534 women died from lung cancer. Therefore, lung cancer is the most common reason for cancer associated death in men and …
Monitoring of the End-tidal Carbon Dioxide (EtCO2) as a Severity Criterion in COPD Exacerbations
Although we know that these numbers are underestimated, Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common chronic respiratory disease that affects between 8 and 12% of adults. According to a 2020 WHO report, it is the third most common cause of mortality in developed countries. This disease is punctuated by …
The Increase of Lung Capacity Using the Lung Master (Pulmonary Exerciser)
Investigators are studying how a device called The Lung Master device can help people breathe better. The investigational device increases the amount of air our lungs can hold, which is important for overall lung health. The Lung Master is not approved by the FDA. The study has two visits approximately …
Genetic Variation in IgG in Alpha 1 Antitrypsin Deficiency
The goal of this study is to learn whether patients who have a genetic mutation in the genes that cause alpha 1 antitrypsin deficiency also have genetic variation in nearby genes that can increase risk for reduced immune function and respiratory infections. To investigate this hypothesis, we will compare immune …
Effects of Bright-light Exposure Combined With Specific Exercise Training (BEST) Program in Patients With Cancer
This study plans to investigate the effectiveness of six-week light exposure combined with an exercise training program on improving sleep-wake rhythm, physical and mental symptoms, quality of life, one-year recurrence rate, and one-year survival rate of patients with lung and esophageal cancer.
