This study aimed to evaluate the long-term prognosis of patients with peripheral small ground-glass opacity-dominant lung cancer after sublobar resection. We have already reported 5-year safety and efficacy resection report outcomes a 10-year follow-up period.Between May 2009 April 2011, 333 radiologically noninvasive were enrolled from 51 institutions (median age, 62 years at registration) followed up until 6, 2021. Of these patients, resections wedge as first choice performed in 314 (258...
Abstract Objectives: To identify useful biomarkers for differentiating between malignant mesothelioma (MM) and reactive mesothelial cells (RMCs). Methods: Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues from 34 MM 40 RMC samples were analyzed using immunohistochemistry, the findings compared. Results: Positive markers included insulin-like growth factor 2 messenger RNA binding protein 3 (IMP3), glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1), epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), CD146, which showed...
Abstract Background The aim of this study was to assess the ability using mean computed tomography (mCT) values predict non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumor recurrence. Methods A retrospective conducted on 494 patients with stage IA NSCLC. Receiver operating characteristics analysis used use mCT value, C/T ratio, size, and SUV Multiple logistic regression analyses were performed determine independent variables for prediction Results m-CT − 213.7 ± 10.2 Hounsfield Units (HU) recurrence...
The aim of this study was to investigate whether the lymph node ratio (LNR) associated with prognosis patients, who underwent surgery for pathological N2 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).A total 182 patients were diagnosed disease and complete resection surgeries systematic lymphadenectomies. We counted number positives removed nodes calculate a between them (LNR). also investigated association skip mediastinal metastasis survival.Univariate analysis survival in NSCLC showed that T factor,...
<b><i>Objective:</i></b> The aim of this study was to determine the utility dynamic-ventilatory digital radiography (DR) for pulmonary function assessment in patients with airflow limitation. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> One hundred and eighteen limitation (72 lung cancer before surgery, 35 chronic obstructive disease [COPD], 6 asthma, 5 asthma-COPD overlap syndrome) were assessed DR. instructed inhale exhale slowly maximally. Sequential chest X-ray...
Dynamic chest radiography (DCR) is a type of non-contrast-enhanced functional lung imaging with dynamic flat-panel detector (FPD). This study aimed to assess the clinical significance ventilation and perfusion metrics derived from changes in radiographic density on DCR comparison nuclear medicine imaging-derived metrics.DCR images 42 cancer patients were sequentially obtained during respiration using FPD system. For each subdivided region, maximum change averaged pixel value (Δmax), i.e.,...
The aim of this work was to analyze parameters determine the possibility for detection tumor location, and clarify indication preoperative marking small peripheral pulmonary nodules in thoracoscopic resection. In a series 97 patients who underwent video-assisted surgery, information on standard uptake values (SUVs) detectability location assessed. whose lesions were <15 mm diameter where distance pleura >10 mm, not detected. Multivariate analysis factors related detecting localization...
Purpose Dynamic chest radiography (DCR) is a flat‐panel detector (FPD)‐based functional lung imaging technique capable of measuring temporal changes in radiographic density due to ventilation and perfusion. The aim this study was determine the diagnostic performance DCR evaluation pulmonary function based on compared nuclear medicine scans. Methods This included 53 patients with disease who underwent at our institution. conducted using dynamic FPD system obtain sequential radiographs during...
A Ga-Al-As diode system that produces low-energy red light (830 nm, 40 mW) has been used for the treatment of many kinds pain. The mechanism action this new laser irradiation analgesia was studied in anesthetized rats. effect saphenous nerve by recording neuronal activity at L4 dorsal root filaments after injection a chemical irritant, turpentine. Laser inhibited both asynchronous firing induced turpentine and increased part slow components potentials. Thus, selectively nociceptive signals...
Abstract Several ionic and nonionic surfactants were separated into their homologs homologous distributions determined by high performance liquid chromatography on an octadecyl‐silica (TSK Gel LS‐410) column with a water‐methanol‐sodium chloride mixture as mobile phase. The recommended condition for the separation was follows: size, 4 mm id x 250 mm; phase, water/methanol (15/85, v/v) containing 0.4 M/L sodium chloride; temp., 50 C. Under this condition, three nonionic, four anionic one...
Recently, thoracic epidural anesthesia (TEA) has been employed to perform awake surgery procedures. This is the first report that describes an endoscopic thymectomy through infrasternal approach using sternal lifting. procedure allows patient eat, drink, and walk on day of surgery. TEA can also be used for postoperative analgesia. Our experiences have shown it safe beneficial apply this procedure.

The aim of this study was to identify the relationships between parameters obtained from dynamic-ventilatory digital radiography (DR) and ventilatory disorders.This comprised 273 participants with respiratory diseases who underwent spirometry functional residual capacity measurements (104 normal findings on as controls, 139 an obstructive lung disorder, 30 a restrictive disorder) were assessed by DR. Sequential chest images patient's slow maximum breathing captured at 15 frames per second...
Primary malignant tumors of the pulmonary arteries occur infrequently. The clinical presentation and diagnostic imaging features tumor are usually nonspecific correct diagnosis is often delayed. In this report, we present a case artery sarcoma. MRI PET-CT were found to be useful for differentiating from thromboembolism.
