Nature‐Inspired Nanostructures from Multiple‐Species Biomembranes: Rational Engineering and Therapeutic Applications in Tumor‐Targeted Nanomedicine

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Naturally derived biomembrane nanostructures by mimicking evolutionarily optimized biological architectures could effectively suppress tumor growth and have emerged as a compelling strategy in translational biomedicine. This review provides a systematic overview of rational design and underlying antitumor therapeutic mechanisms of mammalian cells ...

Classification of Pulmonary Nodules Using Multimodal Feature‐Driven Graph Convolutional Networks with Specificity Proficiency

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The radiomics feature could save the storage space of all medical samples; on the other hand, it avoids data leakage. Graph convolutional neural networks could summarize the similarity of benign and malignant pulmonary nodules to improve the performance in distinguishing them with radiomics and common clinical features.

The investigation of the volatile metabolites of lung cancer from the microenvironment of malignant pleural effusion

Scientific Reports, 2021
For malignant pleural effusions, pleural fluid cytology is a diagnostic method, but sensitivity is low. The pleural fluid contains metabolites directly released from cancer cells.

Treatment of malignant pleural effusion

Journal of Visualized Surgery, 2018
Malignant pleural effusion (MPE) is a very disabling condition that often affects patients with advanced neoplasm. Conservative approach, repeated thoracentesis, pleurodesis and use of indwelling pleural catheters (IPC) are the main methods to deal with this condition.

Management of malignant pleural effusion: challenges and solutions

Cancer Management and Research, 2017
Malignant pleural effusion (MPE) is a sign of advanced cancer and is associated with significant symptom burden and mortality. To date, management has been palliative in nature with a focus on draining the pleural space, with therapies aimed at ...

Mortality and Cancer Incidence After Exposure to Blue Asbestos in Childhood: A Further 10 Years of Follow‐Up

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives The impact of early‐life exposure to asbestos on disease risk remains uncertain. Childhood exposure to blue asbestos at Wittenoom has previously been linked to the development of malignant mesothelioma and various cancers in adulthood, as well as to a greater risk of all‐cause mortality compared with the general population.

Role of the Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio in the Differential Diagnosis of Exudative Pleural Effusion

Clinics
OBJECTIVES: Pleural effusion is a common diagnostic and clinical problem. The differential diagnosis of pleural effusion may be difficult and may require several procedures, including invasive ones.

Diagnostic performance of SHOX2 and RASSF1A gene methylation assays in malignant pleural effusion: A systematic review and meta‐analysis [PDF]

Cancer Cytopathol
Abstract Background Malignant pleural effusion (MPE) is a common complication of advanced malignancies, requiring differentiation from benign pleural effusion for appropriate management. Cytology and biopsy have limitations, necessitating more sensitive, less invasive diagnostic techniques.

Mutant KRAS promotes malignant pleural effusion formation

Nature Communications, 2017
Malignant pleural effusion (MPE) is the lethal consequence of various human cancers metastatic to the pleural cavity. However, the mechanisms responsible for the development of MPE are still obscure.
