Therapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has improved overall survival and cancer-related morbidity of cancer treatment even in cancer entities with poor prognosis. Since the approval of the first ICI, ipilimumab, for treatment of advanced melanoma by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2011, the spectrum of indications and approved ICIs has grown, rapidly. Up to now, seven different ICIs for more than 20 indications are available. However, their mechanisms of action can lead to immune-related adverse events (irAEs). In particular, neurological irAEs are clinically relevant. Although they are rare, an early and accurate diagnosis is challenging and neurological disease course and sequelae are potentially fatal. Between 08/2017 and 03/2020, 31 patients received ICI treatment at Hannover Medical School and presented with neurological adverse events (N-irAEs). Treated malignancies were metastatic melanoma, bronchial carcinoma, and urothelial cell carcinoma. All patients received comprehensive neurotigations in specialized institutions are necessary in patients with new neurological symptoms and need to be critically discussed with treating oncologists.
Recent studies have indicated that the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) can efficiently predict survival outcomes in various tumor types. Thusly, in absence of comparable investigations in limited-stage small-cell lung cancers (LS-SCLCs), we aimed to retrospectively evaluate the prognostic utility of SIRI in LS-SCLC patients treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CRT).
. 3-TYP in vitro Present multi-institutional retrospective analysis incorporated LS-SCLC patients treated with CRT at three academic radiation oncology centers between January 2007 and December 2018. The SIRI was calculated by using the peripheral blood neutrophil (N), monocyte (M), and lymphocyte (L) counts acquired in the last ≤7 days before the commencement of the CRT SIRI = N × M/L. Accessibility of pretreatment SIRI cutoff that may stratify the study population into two gatherings with distinctive overall survival (OS) results was evaluated by utilizing the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Primary objective was ther confounding variables.

The results of this retrospective multi-institutional cohort analysis suggested that a pre-CRT SIRI was a strong and independent prognostic biomarker that reliably stratified LS-SCLC patients into two cohorts with significantly different OS outcomes.

Cancer is one of the major health problems worldwide, which in addition to physical disorders, causes stress and anxiety in patients and affects the quality of life of cancer patients. Mindfulness can affect stress and improve the quality of life. This research explained the correlation between stress, quality of life, and mindfulness.

Two hundred five cancer patients participated in this cross-sectional study. Patients completed the EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30), the Mindfulness Attention and Awareness Scale (MAAS), and Perceived Stress Scale (PSS).

Perceived stress and mindfulness predict nearly 39% of the changes of QOL in cancer patients. In addition, perceived stress was negatively associated with mindfulness and quality of life (
< 0.05). Mindfulness was positively correlated with quality of life (
< 0.05). Mindfulness played a mediating role in the relationship between perceived stress and quality of life (standardized
 = -0.13; SE = 0.07, 95% confidence interval = -0.28 to -0.01;
value = 0.04).

In the present study, the variables of mindfulness and perceived stress affected the quality of life of cancer patients. Mindfulness can affect the quality of life of cancer patients directly and indirectly. These results emphasize the importance of mindfulness in the lives of cancer patients.

This study aimed to investigate the application of the number of positive lymph nodes (PLNs) in tumor, node, metastasis (TNM) staging system of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.
. We screened a total of 15820 patients with resected NSCLC between 2004 and 2015 from SEER database. The X-tile model was used to determine the cutoff values of the number of PLNs. Overall survival (OS) curves were plotted using the Kaplan-Meier method, and the differences among the individual groups were defined using the log-rank test. Cox regression model was used to perform univariate and multivariate analyses and to assess the association between the number of PLNs and OS.

In this study, using the X-tile model, we screened three different cutoff values, including nN0, nN1-3, and nN4-. Survival curves demonstrated that our defined nN stage had a significant predictive value for OS (
< 0.001). In the univariate and multivariate Cox analyses, the result showed that nN stage was a significant prognostic factor of OS for NSCLC patients (
< 0.001). Subsequently, we classified the patients into five subgroups based on the combination of pN and nN stages, including pN0 + nN0, pN1 + nN1-3, pN2 + nN1-3, pN1 + nN4-, and pN2 + nN4-. Moreover, survival curves revealed significant differences among these five groups (
< 0.001).

A combination of pathological LNs (pN) and the number of LN (nN) involvement in NSCLC patients had a better prognostic value than the current TNM staging system based on only pN stage.
