The study is aimed o evaluate the diagnostic performance and treatment guidance of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) combined with transbronchial mediastinal cryobiopsy (EBUS-TBMCB) in patients with mediastinal metastases of lung cancer.
Patients who are intubated and mechanically ventilated in the intensive care unit (ICU) require repeated endotracheal suctioning to remove airway secretions. Although this procedure is necessary, it can cause a temporary collapse of lung units (alveolar derecruitment), leading to a decrease in lung volume and impaired oxygenation. A recruitment maneuver …
Although small cell lung cancer (SCLC) responds dramatically to initial platinum-based chemotherapy, recurrences are nearly universal. The addition of atezolizumab, an immune checkpoint inhibitor, to front-line chemotherapy has recently demonstrated an improvement in overall survival (OS) in extensive stage SCLC (ES-SCLC). Subsequent lines of therapies are associated with modest efficacy …
This is a feasibility study to determine the usefulness of a brachytherapy device that utilizes active components (palladium-103) of standard devices in a novel configuration, which may benefit lung cancer patients by reducing the radiation dose to critical structures, such as the heart wall, while giving a therapeutic dose to …
This trial is a multicenter, open-label, non-interventional controlled study to identify and characterize epigenetic signatures of lung cancer. The goal of this study is to develop a simple blood test that can detect lung cancer with high sensitivity, and assist in the early diagnosis and management of lung cancer. In …
There is increased interest and knowledge about the lung cancer tumor microenvironment (TME). Investigators hypothesize that patients with better baseline physiologic health will have better post-operative outcomes and that strenuous exercise will alter the TME and genetic make-up of the tumor, improving the tumor immune response. Investigators aim to identify …
The goal of this clinical trial in voice professionals with both genders aimed to verify the changes in the vocal range profile and the changes in the glottic and vocal tract configuration for more efficient phonation after applying the adapted Lee Silverman Method and the addiction of lung volume recruitment …
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the relationship between intraoperative driving pressure and postoperative lung ultrasound scores in patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. During this specific surgery, factors such as pneumoperitoneum and patient positioning can significantly affect respiratory mechanics. Postoperative lung condition will be objectively assessed …
BACKGROUND: Dysphagia is one of the most life-threatening stroke complications. Dysphagic stroke patients are at increased risk of aspiration pneumonia. Pneumonia accounts for at least 10% of post stroke deaths within 30 days of hospitalization after stroke. rTMS is effective in improving post-stroke dysphagia and swallowing coordination after stimulation of …
In patients with pulmonary embolism (PE), after three or six months of anticoagulation, persistent dyspnea and impairment of quality of life are observed in at least 30% of cases. The "RAMBO" trial is a French academic, multicenter, randomized (1:1 ratio), parallel arm, controlled, that aimed to assess the efficacy of …
