predictive factors of radiation-induced lung toxicity in lung cancer patients: a retrospective study
background: radiation-induced lung toxicity is an important dose-limiting toxicity in lung cancer radiotherapy, for which there are no generally accepted predictive factors. this study seeks to identify risk factors associated with the development of severe radiation-induced lung toxicity using clinical and dosimetric parameters. methods: we reviewed the medical records of 54 patients with hist...
متن کاملDiabetes mellitus may increase risk for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
STUDY OBJECTIVE Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive and fatal lung disease of unknown etiology. The incidence of IPF increases with age. Aging contributes to lifestyle-related diseases, including diabetes mellitus (DM); therefore, it is possible that lifestyle-related diseases may affect either the initiation or progression of IPF. DESIGN Case-control study. SETTING Nippon ...
متن کاملRecruitment Maneuver Does not Increase the Risk of Ventilator Induced Lung Injury.
BACKGROUND Mechanical ventilation (MV) may induce lung injury. AIMS To assess and evaluate the role of different mechanical ventilation strategies on ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) in comparison to a strategy which includes recruitment manoeuvre (RM). STUDY DESIGN Randomized animal experiment. METHODS Thirty male Sprague-Dawley rats were anaesthetised, tracheostomised and divided i...
متن کاملEstablishment of a rat model of radiation-induced lung injury
Background: Radiation-induced lung injury is a refractory side effect in lung cancer radiotherapy, the mechanism still remains unclear, hence an appropriate animal mode may become useful to investigate it. Materials and Methods: 50 female Wistar rats were randomly divided into 5 groups, average 10 rats/cage: A. control group B. 3Gy×10f C. 6Gy×5f D. 12.5Gy×1f E.15.3Gy×1f....
متن کامل[Surgical treatment for lung cancer patients with poor pulmonary function].
OBJECTIVE To summarize surgical treatment of lung cancer patients with poor pulmonary function. METHODS From 1991 to 1999, 181 lung cancer patients with poor pulmonary function underwent operation. The correlation between the results of preoperative pulmonary functional tests and the postoperative cardiopulmonary complications was analyzed by Chi-square test (chi(2)). RESULTS In 181 patient...
