Body composition and adipose tissue play a role in the predisposition and progression of lung cancer. Patients with lung carcinoma exhibited lower levels of adiponectin compared with the control population. Additionally, adiponectin levels in patients undergo changes after surgical resection of lung carcinoma.

Effect of Refined Nursing on Wound Complications After Thoracoscopic Surgery for Lung Cancer
In this study, different nursing modes were evaluated and compared in patients undergoing thoracoscopic radical lung cancer resection to determine which is more effective in managing postoperative wound complications. Compared with the control group, the implementation of refined nursing intervention for patients with thoracoscopic radical resection of

A diffusely thickened or hard pleura is a special type of macroscopic appearance associated with benign or malignant conditions. Medical thoracoscopy (MT) is the gold standard for pleural pathology, but its diagnostic yield is imperfect. Although cryobiopsy may provide greater and deeper tissue, its impact on the diagnostic yield remains uncertain, and
