European Guideline on Chronic Nausea and Vomiting—A UEG and ESNM Consensus for Clinical Management
ABSTRACT Introduction Chronic nausea and vomiting are symptoms of a wide range of gastrointestinal and non‐gastrointestinal conditions. Diagnosis can be challenging and requires a systematic and well‐structured approach. If the initial investigation for structural, toxic and metabolic disorders is negative, digestive motility and gut‐brain interaction ...

Preoperative psoas muscle volume in elderly lung cancer patients is associated with postoperative complications and survival. Screening for sarcopenia using psoas muscle volume may help to avoid unfavorable outcomes in these patients. ABSTRACT Background As the population ages, the number of elderly lung cancer patients has been increasing.

Angiogenesis gene expression in murine endothelial cells during post-pneumonectomy lung growth
Although blood vessel growth occurs readily in the systemic bronchial circulation, angiogenesis in the pulmonary circulation is rare. Compensatory lung growth after pneumonectomy is an experimental model with presumed alveolar capillary angiogenesis.

Pneumonectomy through an empyema
In the 10 year period from May, 1973, to May, 1983, a total of 251 pneumonectomies were undertaken. Total unilateral bronchiectasis, the consequence of previous tuberculosis, occurred in 67.3% of cases and was the major indication for pneumonectomy. Of the 251 pneumonectomies, 14.7% were done through an empyema.
