Lung cancer screening aims to find lung cancer early. This is when there are more treatment options available and there is the best chance of treating it successfully. In the UK, the National ...

Methods Whole genome mRNA profiling was performed on lung tissue samples (n=1197) and differential gene expression with increasing age was analysed using an adjusted linear regression model.

People with COPD experience changes in their bodies. It starts with damage to the airways and tiny sacs in your lungs. That progresses to a wet cough and difficulty breathing, which can then get ...

This would see the creation of organoids – artificially grown masses of cells or tissue resembling organs which are derived from stem cells – which would mimic how natural lungs function ...

Anatomic lung resections, such as lobectomy and segmentectomy, are linked to improved long-term survival for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) compared to wedge resection.

IPF affects the tissue surrounding the air sacs, or alveoli, in the lungs. This condition develops when lung tissue becomes thick and stiff for reasons still unknown and leads to the irreversible ...

Lung cancer survival without treatment is shorter than survival with treatment. People with untreated non-small cell lung cancer—the most common type—typically live between five and 12 months after ...

A heart-lung machine is a piece of medical equipment that temporarily takes over the work of the heart and lungs, circulating oxygenated blood throughout the body. Also called a cardiopulmonary bypass ...

analysis showed that these DEPs in lung tissues were primarily enriched in pathways, including IL-17 and B cell receptor signaling pathways, and the response to stimuli. In contrast, DEPs in the serum ...
