Introdução: O câncer de pulmão é uma doença grave, sendo a segunda maior causa de morte em todo o mundo, entretanto, em alguns países desenvolvidos, tornou-se já a primeira causa de morte. Cerca de 90% dos casos de neoplasia pulmonares são causados pela inalação da fumaça do cigarro. Objetivo: Correlacionar a prevalência de tabagismo e morbimortalidade por câncer de pulmão nos estados brasileiros, além de demonstrar a associação destes com sexo e faixa etária. Métodos: Estudo de caráter ecológico acerca da prevalência de tabagismo e morbimortalidade por câncer de pulmão nos estados brasileiros, nos períodos de 2013 e 2019, dividida por sexo e faixa etária. Foram utilizados bancos de coleta de dados como o Tabnet e Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde. Resultados: As maiores taxas de mortalidade e internações hospitalares foram do público masculino, em 2013, com taxa de 2,7 e 10, respectivamente, e em 2019 com 3,3 e 11,9, respectivamente. Ademais, a maior prevalência de tabagismo foi encontrada nos homens; entretanto seu índice tem caído, enquanto a quantidade de mulheres tabagistas tem aumentado. A Região Sul demonstrou maiores números de mortalidade em ambos os períodos estudados, com taxas de 4,9 e 5,8 por 100 mil habitantes, e morbidade hospitalar com 19,9 e 23,5 por 100 mil habitantes. Já a Região Norte se configurou com as menores prevalências: em 2013 apresentou taxa de óbito por câncer de pulmão de 1,0 e morbidade hospitalar de 3,5/100 mil habitantes, em 2019 apresentou taxa de mortalidade de 4,6 e internações de 1,6/100 mil habitantes. Os coeficientes de correlação de morbidade hospitalar e prevalência de tabagismo foram R2=0,0628, r=0,251 e p=0,042, enquanto os de mortalidade e prevalência de tabagismo foram R2=0,0337, r=0,183 e p=0,140. Conclusões: Na presente pesquisa, pode-se inferir que houve associação positiva na comparação entre taxa de morbidade hospitalar e prevalência de tabagismo; em contrapartida, não foi possível observar associação positiva na correlação da taxa de mortalidade por câncer de pulmão e prevalência de tabagismo.
Introduction: Lung cancer is a serious disease, being the second leading cause of death worldwide. Moreover, in some developed countries, it has already become the leading cause of death. About 90% of lung cancer cases are caused by cigarette smoking. Objective: To correlate the prevalence of smoking and lung cancer morbidity and mortality in Brazilian states, and to demonstrate their association with sex and age group as well. Methods: An ecological study on the prevalence of smoking and lung cancer morbidity and mortality in Brazilian states between 2013 and 2019, divided by sex and age group. The data collection databases Tabnet and National Health Survey were used. Results: The highest rates of mortality and hospital admissions were among men, in 2013 with a rate of 2.7 and 10, respectively, and in 2019 with 3.3 and 11.9, respectively. In addition, the highest prevalence of smoking was found in men, but this rate has fallen, while the number of women smokers has increased. The South region showed higher mortality rates in both periods studied, with rates of 4.9 and 5.8 per 100,000 inhabitants, and hospital morbidity with 19.9 and 23.5 per 100,000 inhabitants. The North region had the lowest prevalence, where in 2013, it had a death rate from lung cancer of 1.0 and hospital morbidity of 3.5/100 thousand inhabitants, and where in 2019, it had a mortality rate of 4.6 and hospitalizations of 1.6/100 thousand inhabitants. The correlation coefficients for hospital morbidity and smoking prevalence were R2=0.0628, r=0.251 and p=0.042, while for mortality and smoking prevalence, these were R2=0.0337, r=0.183 and p=0.140. Conclusions: In the present study, it can be inferred that there was a positive association between hospital morbidity rate and prevalence of smoking, while it was not possible to observe a correlation between lung cancer mortality rate and prevalence of smoking.

Background: Lung cancer patients are at high risk for depression, which is associated with poor treatment adherence. Medical hypnosis can improve symptoms of depression and affect interleukin-6 levels. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of medical hypnosis in improving depression and reducing IL-6 levels in lung cancer patients. Methods: This study is a quasi-experimental study with a pretest and post-test control group design. It assessed depressive symptoms using BDI-II scores and serum IL-6 levels in an intervention group receiving medical hypnosis and standard therapy compared to a control group receiving standard therapy. Data analysis was conducted using univariate tests, followed by Pearson correlation tests and effect size measurement with Cohen's d test. Results: The Wilcoxon test showed a decrease in IL-6 levels in the intervention group by 14.66�.45 (p=0.008) and a reduction in BDI-II scores by 8.26�78 (p=0.001). Correlation tests indicated a significant relationship between IL-6 levels and BDI-II scores (r=0.472; p=0.009). Cohen's d test showed the effect size of medical hypnosis on IL-6 levels was 0.754 (moderate=0.5<ES<0.8). Conclusions: Medical hypnosis is effective in improving depressive symptoms and reducing IL-6 levels in lung cancer patients.

Noble bimetallic nanoparticles (BNPs) exhibit strong anticancer and antibacterial activities. They are known to be stable, less toxic, environmental friendly and biocompatible nature. Due to their enhanced biological properties, they are well suits for the biomedical applications such as cancer therapy, gene therapy and drug delivery. In the current study, we examine the anticancer and antibacterial potential of bio-mediated mono and bimetallic nanoparticles. Here, aqueous Capsicum annuum leaf extract was employed as a good reducing and capping agent for producing Ag, Au monometallic, and Ag-Au bimetallic nanoparticles. The formation of C.A- Ag, Au MPNs and Ag-Au BNPs was initially confirmed by visible color change of the reaction mixture and UV-Visible spectra show the Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) band observed at 543 nm. Furthermore, phytofabrication, crystallinities, structural alignments, particle size and elemental composition were studied by following standard physico-chemical techniques such as FT-IR (Fourier Transform Infrared), XRD (X-Ray diffraction), HR-TEM (High resolution-Transmission Electron Microscopy), SEM-EDX (Scanning Electron Microscopy and Energy- dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy) respectively. The results were obtained from various characterization techniques confirmed that the C.A. mediated Ag, Au MNPs and Ag-Au BNPs were spherical in shape and FCC structure with nanoscale range (10-25 nm). The BNPs exhibit strong efficacy against bacterial strains. These nanoparticles were subjected to investigate the anticancer activity against human lung cancer cells (A549 cell line) through MTT assay. The cell viability was determined by this assay. The occurrence of cell apoptosis and necrotic were quantified by using dual fluorescent staining (AO/EB) and flow cytometry analysis. However, Ag-Au bimetallic nanoparticles showed highest cytotoxic potential with low IC50 - 57.35 ± 0.05 µM values. This IC50 value is comparatively lower than, Ag, Au MNPs and C.A. aqueous leaf extract. IC50 values of C.A- Ag-Au BNPs predominantly induced the cell apoptosis, necrotic and the death of A549 cells suggested the anticancer potential of C.A. mediated Ag-Au BNPs to treat the lung cancer cells.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and influencing factors of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in Hubei province, and to provide a theoretical basis for the diagnosis and treatment of NSCLC patients with COPD. Methods A total of 246 NSCLC patients admitted to our hospital from 2018 to 2020 were selected and divided into control group (without COPD, n=125) and observation group (with COPD, n=121) according to COPD. The clinical characteristics of chest pain, hemoptysis, emasculation, atelectasis and pleural effusion were compared between the two groups. The values of FEV1/FVC, RV/TLC and DLCO in the two groups were measured by pulmonary function detector. The age, gender, smoking, smoking history, proportion of lung squamous cell carcinoma, TNM stage and other clinical data of all subjects were analyzed by self-made survey scale of our hospital. Univariate analysis and logistic regression were used to analyze the risk factors of COPD in NSCLC patients. Results Among 246 NSCLC patients, 121 patients (49.19%) were complicated with COPD, including 76 males and 45 females, and there was a statistical difference between the two groups (χ2=4.891, P>0.05). The average age of the observation group (61.02±4.82) was significantly higher than that of the control group (59.76±4.73) (t=2.069, P0.05). Male (OR=2.982), smoking history (OR=2.623) and lung squamous cell carcinoma (OR=3.147) were risk factors for COPD in NSCLC patients (P<0.05). Conclusions NSCLC patients with COPD are more common in male smokers in Hubei Province, often accompanied by pleural effusion , severe hemoptysis and other symptoms , and their lung function is decreased. Early detection and standardized treatment of COPD in the treatment of NSCLC can improve the prognosis of patients.

Objective To analyse the prognosis and risk factors of lung cancer with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) in Tongchuan City, and to provide a theoretical basis for improving the prognosis of patients with lung cancer complicated with AECOPD. Methods A total of 280 patients with lung cancer combined with AECOPD admitted to Tongchuan People's Hospital from January 2021 to August 2022 were selected and divided into survival group and death group according to whether the patients survived during hospitalization. Serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA 21-1) and other tumor markers were compared between the two groups. Lung function was measured by lung function instruments, and the levels of forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), FEV1/FVC and other lung function indicators were compared between the two groups. The patients' clinical data were collected from the medical record system, and univariate analysis and logistic regression were used to analyze the independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients with lung cancer complicated with AECOP. Results The values of FEV1, FVC and FEV1/FVC in the death group were significantly lower than those in the survival group (P<0.05). Serum CEA and CYFRA 21-1 levels in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group (P<0.05). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that albumin level <35 g/L (OR=2.728), TNM stage III to IV (OR=2.416), multidrug-resistant bacterial infection (OR=2.982), and GOLD grade III to IV (OR=3.417) were independent risk factors for death in patients with lung cancer complicated with AECOPD in Tongchuan City (P<0.05). Conclusion Patients with lung cancer complicated with AECOPD in Tongchuan City have a high risk of death during hospitalization, especially patients with TNM stage III to IV and GOLD grade III to IV. Multi-drug resistant bacteria infection should be actively controlled to improve the albumin level of patients, which is conducive to the prognosis of patients.

@#Objective To investigate the clinical effect of 3D computed tomography bronchial bronchography and angiography (3D-CTBA) and guidance of thoracoscopic anatomic pulmonary segmentectomy by Mimics software system. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on patients who underwent thoracoscopic segmentectomy in the Department of Thoracic Surgery of Affiliated People's Hospital of Jiangsu University from June 2020 to December 2022. The patients who underwent preoperative 3D-CTBA using Materiaise's interactive medical image control system (Mimics) were selected as an observation group, and the patients who did not receive 3D-CTBA were selected as a control group. The relevant clinical indicators were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 59 patients were included, including 29 males and 30 females, aged 25-79 years. There were 37 patients in the observation group, and 22 patients in the control group. The operation time (163.0±48.7 min vs. 188.8±43.0 min, P=0.044), intraoperative blood loss [10.0 (10.0, 20.0) mL vs. 20.0 (20.0, 35.0) mL, P<0.001], and preoperative puncture localization rate (5.4% vs. 31.8%, P=0.019) in the observation group were better than those in the control group. There was no statistically significant difference in the thoracic tube placement time, thoracic fluid drainage volume, number of intraoperative closure nail bin, postoperative hospital stay, or postoperative air leakage incidence (P>0.05) between the two groups. Conclusion For patients who need to undergo anatomical pulmonary segmentectomy, using Mimics software to produce 3D-CTBA before surgery can help accurately identify pulmonary arteriovenous anatomy, reduce surgical time and intraoperative blood loss, help to determine the location of nodules and reduce invasive localization before surgery, and alleviate patients' pain, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

@#Objective To systematically evaluate the risk factors for postoperative pulmonary infection in patients with lung cancer (PPILC), and to provide a theoretical reference for clinicians to prevent the occurrence of PPILC. Methods The databases of CNKI, Wanfang data, VIP, CBM, PubMed, EMbase and The Cochrane Library were searched by computer to collect researches on the risk factors for PPILC. The search period was from 2012 to 2021. Two clinicians independently screened literature and extracted data and assessed studies for risk of bias, cross-checked and agreed. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 software. Results A total of 25 studies were included, including 20 case-control studies, 1 cohort study, and 4 cross-sectional studies, covering 15 129 patients. Twenty case-control studies and 1 cohort study had Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) scores≥6 points, and 4 cross-sectional studies had the Agency for Health Care Quality and Research (AHRQ) scale scores≥6 points. The results of meta-analysis showed that the risk factors for PPILC included: (1) 4 patient's own factors: age≥60 years, male, smoking history, smoking index≥400; (2) 7 preoperative factors: suffering from diabetes, chronic heart failure and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, the ratio of forced expiratory volume in 1 second to forced expiratory volume<70%, the ratio of forced expiratory volume in 1 second to the predicted value, preoperative airway colonization, non-standard use of prophylactic antibiotics before surgery; (3) 3 intraoperative factors: operation time≥3 h, thoracotomy, the number of resected lobe≥2; (4) 3 postoperative factors: postoperative pain, postoperative mechanical ventilation≥12 h, postoperative invasive operation. Large number of preoperative lymphocyte, intraoperative systematic lymph node dissection, TNM stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ, and enhanced recovery after surgery were protective factors for PPILC. Conclusion The current research evidence shows that multiple factors are associated with the risk of PPILC. However, considering the influence of the quality and quantity of the included literature, the results of this study urgently need to be further verified by more high-quality clinical studies.

@#Although surgical resection remains to be the best treatment strategy for stageⅠnon-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), percutaneous thermal ablation offers an important option for patients who are unable to undergo surgical resection. Currently, there are three main thermal ablation methods used in the treatment of lung cancer, including radiofrequency ablation (RFA), microwave ablation (MWA) and argon-helium cryoablation (AHC). With the improvement of technique and the accumulation of experience in the treatment of lung cancer, some limitations are disclosed in the initial application of RFA, such as heat sink effect, skin burns and rapid carbonization. These shortcomings have been overcome in the development of MWA and AHC. The feasibility and safety of thermal ablation for the treatment of lung cancer has been demonstrated and its efficacy has been significantly improved (especially for the tumour diameter≤3 cm). This article will focus on the application and recent research developments of these ablation techniques in the treatment of lung cancer.

Lung cancer has the highest incidence and mortality rate among all cancers in China, with its complex and variable nature, long treatment duration, and often poor prognosis. Currently, the treatment of lung cancer mainly employs classical therapies such as surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, but some patients may experience a series of adverse reactions, which affect their quality of life, survival period, and treatment outcomes. As reported, oxidative stress is one of the important pathogenic factors of lung cancer, affecting its occurrence and development. Oxidative stress is a state of imbalance between oxidative products and antioxidant defense mechanisms in the body. The intervention of oxidative stress in the occurrence and development of lung cancer is related to multiple signaling pathways, including the Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1)-nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) signaling pathway, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway, and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway. Currently, researchers in China and abroad have conducted extensive studies on the occurrence and development of lung cancer and the pathophysiological mechanisms of drug intervention. The results have shown that oxidative stress plays an important role in the occurrence and development of lung cancer. Chinese medicine monomers and compounds can regulate oxidative stress levels and intervene in related signaling pathways, thereby inhibiting or delaying the occurrence and development of lung cancer. Based on this, this article mainly summarized the relevant signaling pathways regulating oxidative stress intervention in lung cancer in recent years, and also reviewed the latest research on Chinese medicine monomers and compounds in regulating oxidative stress to treat lung cancer, aiming to provide new ideas for research on drug treatment of lung cancer and clinical drug development, as well as to provide references and guidance for further in-depth mechanistic studies in the future.
