lung cancer stages :: Article Creator Real-World Practice Upholds Lobectomy For Early-Stage Lung Cancer LOS ANGELES -- Surgeries to remove small tumors in stage IA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were associated with varying odds of long-term survival depending on the amount of lung removed, based on real-world data collected from across the country. In routine practice, unadjusted 10-year overall survival (OS) for lobectomy reached 44.8%, while for segmentectomy it was 44.2%, and for wedge resection 41.4%, according to Christopher Seder, MD, of Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, at the annual meeting of the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS). Lobectomy was associated with a significantly lower risk of all-cause mortality relative to sublobar resections in general (HR 0.87, 95% CI 0.83-0.92), though on closer inspection, this was really an advantage over wedge resections (HR 0.84, 95% CI 0.80-0.88) but not segmentectomy (HR 0.96, ...

tb and hiv care :: Article Creator Survivors Of Tuberculosis May Benefit From Better Linkage To Post-Treatment Care Efforts to improve linkage to primary and HIV comprehensive care may reduce the risk of post-treatment mortality among survivors of tuberculosis (TB) infection in the United States, according to results of a study published in Emerging Infectious Diseases. Researchers conducted an observational cohort study of adults in Georgia who were diagnosed with TB infection and completed treatment between January 2008 and December 2019. The researchers performed survival analyses among the cohort to determine risk factors for post-treatment mortality. Eligible study patients included those aged 18 years and older who had a bacteriologic or clinical diagnosis of pulmonary or extrapulmonary TB disease. Patients who died before or during TB treatment were excluded. Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox proportional hazard models were employed for statistic...

the black death middle ages :: Article Creator Causes And Effects Of The Black Death There are various estimates of how many people died during the 1348-49 outbreak. Most historians believe between a third and half of the population were killed by the Black Death. The population of England at the time of the Black Death is estimated to have been around 6 million, so that means approximately 2 to 3 million people died. Despite the scale of the fatalities, there is evidence that there was some sort of organised response from local government. Mass graves of victims have been found from the Middle Ages. The way the bodies are carefully laid in side by side suggests bodies were treated respectfully and in a dignified way. A result of the high mortality rateclosemortality rateThe percentage of people who would normally die from a disease. So a disease with a mortality rate of 50% would mean an average of 50 people would die out of every 100 infected....

signs of pleurisy pneumonia :: Article Creator How To Identify When A Cough Signals Serious Illness A guide to understanding the difference between viral infections and more severe conditions While coughing serves as one of the body's natural defense mechanisms, distinguishing between a common viral infection and a more serious condition requires careful attention to symptoms and duration. Medical professionals emphasize that understanding these differences can lead to timely intervention when necessary. Understanding viral coughs Most coughs stem from viral infections like the common cold or flu. These typically resolve within 7-10 days and present with characteristic symptoms that make them identifiable. Respiratory specialists note that viral coughs often start dry before becoming more productive as the infection progresses. These common infections usually accompany other symptoms such as mild fever, nasal congestion, and general fatig...
