Opis:
Lung cancer is associated with one of the highest mortality rates among malignant tumors. It is the main death cause of men and women in Poland where over 15 000 men and 7 000 women die with this diagnosis annually. 1.7 million people die every year due to lung cancer in the world. Two main types of lung cancer are small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The history of lung cancer treatment begins with surgical approach followed by addition of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, which were used either separately or in combination depending on the stage of the lung cancer. Many somatic mutations were identified and molecularly targeted therapies could have been established. One of the oldest and the best known group of molecularly targeted drugs used in lung cancer treatment are tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). First EGFR-TKI was gefitinib, which has been examined in clinical trials before erlotinib, afatinib, dacomitinib and osimertinib. EGFR-TKIs increased overall survival (OS) with significantly less side effects when compared to standard chemotherapy. Another group of molecularly targeted drugs are anaplastic lymphoma (ALK) kinase inhibitors such as crizotinib, alectinib and ceritinib. Another innovation which was introduced in NSCLC treatment was immunotherapy. Its effect is based on modification of immune system leading to activation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL). Currently nivolumab and pembrolizumab (anti-PD1 antibodies) as well as atezoliumab (anti-PD-L1 antibody) are being used in NSCLC patients. The discovery of innovative therapies for NSCLC patients resulted in significant extension of patients' life expectancy while minimizing the side effects of such therapy. Moreover, the quality of patients’ life was significantly improved. However, important problems still remain to be solved: overcoming the resistance in the course of molecularly targeted therapies and the lack of predictive factors that determine the effectiveness of immunotherapy.

Opis:
Pulmonary lymphangitic carcinomatosis is a special type of diffuse metastasis of carcinoma in the lymphatic vessels of the lungs. Lymphangitic carcinomatosis is commonly observed in malignancies of the breast, lung, pancreas, colon and cervix as a strong marker for poor prognosis. Presenting with common respiratory symptoms, it may be easily misdiagnosed as other pulmonary interstitial diseases. Pulmonary lymphangitic carcinomatosis is a rare manifestation of metastatic gastric cancer. The presented case describes a patient with pulmonary lymphangitic carcinomatosis in the course of stomach cancer. The primary diagnosis was established based on the exclusion of other interstitial lung diseases, with the use of imaging techniques as well as biochemical, microbiological and cytological findings. The patient’s general condition was very severe, rendering him bedridden and therefore not eligible for any treatment, including chemotherapy. He died suddenly before final verification of the diagnosis. Pulmonary lymphangitic carcinomatosis should be suspected in patients with advanced gastric cancer, presenting with symptoms and signs of respiratory disease. Imaging techniques are mostly helpful to establish the diagnosis.

Opis:
Objectives This study has researched the significance of histologically raised findings and lung dust analyses in the context of claiming the recognition of and thus compensation for an asbestos-associated occupational disease. Material and Methods For this approach, all findings from the German Mesothelioma Register in 2015 that included lung dust analyses were evaluated and were compared with information on asbestos fiber exposure at work based on fiber years, and with the results of radiological findings. Results For 68 insured persons, recognition of an asbestos-induced lung disease according to Section 4104 of the German Ordinance on Occupational Diseases (Berufskrankheitenverordnung – BKV) could be recommended solely on the basis of the histological examinations of lung tissues and complementary lung dust analyses. Neither did the calculation of the cumulative asbestos dust exposure at work yield 25 fiber years, nor could bridge findings (e.g., plaques) be identified. In addition, the autopsies of 12 patients revealed plaques that had not been diagnosed during radiological examinations. These results show that – irrespective of the prescribed working techniques and radiological diagnosis – pathological/anatomical and histological diagnostics are often the only way for the insureds to demonstrate the causal connection between asbestos and their disease. Even after long intervals of up to 40 years post last exposure, the asbestos fibers would still be easily detectable in the lung tissues evaluated. Conclusions Whenever suitable tissue is available, it should be examined for mild asbestosis with the aid of a lung dust analysis. Otherwise there is a risk that an occupational disease is wrongfully rejected. In the context of health insurance, the lung dust analysis and the resulting proof of the presence of asbestosis often constitute one option of providing evidence of an occupational disease.

Opis:
In a lung ultrasound examination, interstitial lung lesions are visible as numerous B-line artifacts, and are best recorded with the use of a convex probe. Interstitial lung lesions may result from many conditions, including cardiogenic pulmonary oedema, non-cardiogenic pulmonary oedema, or interstitial lung disease. Hence difficulties in the differential diagnostics of the above clinical conditions. This article presents cases of patients suffering from interstitial lung lesions discovered in the course of lung ultrasound examination. The patients were examined with a 3.5–5.0 MHz convex probe and a 7.0–11.0 MHz linear probe. Ultrasound images have been analysed, and differences in the imaging with both probes in patients with interstitial lung lesions have been detailed. The use of a linear probe in patients with interstitial lung lesions (discovered with a convex or a micro-convex probe) provides additional information on the source of the origin of the lesions.
Zmiany śródmiąższowe płuc w badaniu ultrasonograficznym prezentują się jako liczne artefakty linii B, rejestrowane najlepiej przy pomocy sondy konweksowej. Przyczyn zmian śródmiąższowych płuc może być wiele: kardiogenny obrzęk płuc, niekardiogenny obrzęk płuc oraz zmiany w przebiegu śródmiąższowych chorób płuc. Powoduje to trudności w diagnostyce różnicowej powyższych stanów klinicznych. W artykule przedstawiono serię przypadków pacjentów, u których w badaniu ultrasonograficznym płuc stwierdzono zmiany śródmiąższowe płuc. Badania wykonano przy pomocy sondy konweksowej (3,5–5,0 MHz) oraz liniowej (7,0–11,0 MHz). Dokonano analizy obrazów ultrasonograficznych oraz wskazano różnice w obrazowaniu obiema głowicami w grupie pacjentów ze zmianami śródmiąższowymi w płucach. Zastosowanie sondy liniowej u pacjentów ze stwierdzonymi (przy pomocy sondy konweksowej lub mikrokonweksowej) zmianami śródmiąższowymi płuc wnosi nowe informacje na temat źródła ich pochodzenia.

Opis:
Introduction. Hyponatremia is a frequently observed electrolyte disorder among patients with cancer. In 1957, Schwartz et al. reported the first case of a patient with hyponatremia due to SIADH, secondary to lung cancer. From that moment on, there has been data published that indicates patients with SIADH are less responsive to chemotherapy, have greater predisposition to central nervous system metastases and are often characterized by an advanced stage of cancer during time of diagnosis. Hyponatremia has many possible causes, and the differential diagnosis can pose a challenge. Aim. The aim of the study was to consider the occurrence of secondary hyponatremia in the course of cancer and the significance of this disorder in the prognosis of the disease. Methods. An analysis of the clinical history of the patient and a review of available literature. Results. A 66-year old patient with hyponatremia was admitted to the Department of Endocrinology, and lung cancer was determined as the cause of the aforementioned electrolyte disorder. Conclusion. SIADH secondary to cancers should be included in a differential diagnosis of every case of hyponatremia of undetermined etiology.

Pulmonary localisation represents only 15% of all cases of actinomycosis. The clinical symptoms and radiological changes of this disease are non-specific and sometimes it can be misdiagnosed, usually as tuberculosis, lung cancer or lung abscess. In the reported case, what might look like the lung cancer, finally turned out to be actinomycosis. The interesting case is presented of lung actinomycosis in a 77-year-old farmer, admitted to the Department of Pneumonology, Oncology and Allegology in Lublin due to a massive haemoptysis. CT scan of the chest showed, apart from other changes, the spicular consolidation in the right lung which aroused oncology vigilance. The diagnostic path, which was a real medical challenge, led to the diagnosis of actinomycosis. The process of diagnosis and consequent treatment, which led to the complete regression of clinical and radiological changes, is presented.

Opis:
Introduction. Thiram, a fungicides, is widely used on seeds and as foliar agent on turf, vegetables and fruit. It is also used in the rubber industry as a vulcanization accelerator. When absorbed through the respiratory system, it is rapidly metabolised to dimethylthiocarbamate and carbon disulphide, causing noxious effects. A brief review is presented of the literature, centering on the interesting case of a 45-year-old woman admitted to the hospital suffering from acute respiratory failure. Results. Computer tomography in angiographic option (angio-CT) showed an extensive, irregular area of ground glass in both upper lobes and apical segments of the lower lobes of the lungs. A significant enlargement of both atria was also described. There was no improvement after cardiac treatment and patient was transferred to the pulmonary department where she was succesfully treated with systemic glucocortycosteroids. The patient remains under the supervision of the pulmonary out-patient department.

Objectives: Recent results of epidemiological and medical statistics studies of lung cancer and indoor radon in different regions of the world make a relevant new combined analysis of residential exposure health effects. In particular, new data were obtained by means of a meta-analysis of case-control studies as well as taking into account a confounding effect of human papillomavirus infection in studies of geographically aggregated data. Materials and methods: Two sources of epidemiological data are considered: (1) studies of ecological design and (2) case-control studies. Ecological studies included the analysis performed for the USA counties and Russian oblasts with adjusting for the main confounders. Data on the case-control studies were gained from the meta-analysis of 31 individual studies with a weighting of obtained odds ratios according to the quality of radon exposure reconstruction and size of the reference group. Estimations of lung cancer excess relative risk (ERR) associated with indoor radon exposure are combined. Results: Two types of epidemiological study design provided generally consistent EER estimations. The combined value of ERR due to radon exposure is 0.14 (90% CI: 0.10–0.18) per 100 Bq/m3 . Conclusion: Available geographically aggregated data in regions of Russia and the United States and the meta-analysis of case-control studies conducted in a large number of countries confirm the association of lung cancer with indoor radon exposure.

Opis:
Objective. Little is known about lead toxic effects on lung tissue. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to estimate the values of selected parameters related to oxidative stress in the lung of rats exposed to lead acetate. Material and methods. Twenty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into two groups: control (n=10) and lead-treated (n=10). The lead-treated group was fed with regular rat chow and distilled water supplemented with lead acetate (1200 ppm) for 7 days. In lung homogenates, the level of malondialdehyde (MDA) and the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD, CuZn-SOD, Mn-SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione reductase (GR), and glutathione-S-transferase (GST) were determined. Results. The activity of catalase was significantly higher in the lung of lead-treated rats than in controls by 98%. Similarly, the activities of GPx and GR were higher by 57% and 45%, respectively. The level of MDA was also higher in lead-exposed rats than in the control group by 52%. The remaining parameters did not differ between the studied groups. Conclusions. Lead exposure stimulates antioxidant defense mechanisms in rat lung; however, these mechanisms are insufficient to prevent lead-induced oxidative stress development
Wstęp. Toksyczny wpływ ołowiu na tkankę płucną jest słabo poznany. W związku z tym, prezentowany eksperyment miał na celu ocenę zmian w wybranych parametrach związanych ze stresem oksydacyjnym w tkance płucnej u szczurów narażonych na octan ołowiu. Materiał i metody. Dwadzieścia szczurów szczepu Wistar, podzielono na dwie grupy: kontrolną (n=10) i badaną z podawanym ołowiem (n=10). Szczury z grupy badanej były regularnie karmione granulatem dla szczurów i pojone wodą destylowaną z octanem ołowiu (1200 ppm) przez 7 dni. W homogenatach z tanki płucnej oznaczany był poziom malonylodialdehydu (MDA) i aktywność dysmutazy ponadtlenkowej (SOD, CuZn-SOD, Mn-SOD), katalazy (CAT), peroksydazy glutationowej (GPx), reduktazy glutationowej (GR), oraz transferazy glutationowej (GST). Wyniki. Aktywność katalazy była o 98% wyższa w grupie badanej aniżeli w grupie kontrolnej. Podobnie, aktywności GPx i GR były wyższe odpowiednio o 57% i 45%. Poziom MDA był również wyższy w grupie badanej, o 52% w porównaniu do grupy kontrolnej. Pozostałe parametry nie różniły się pomiędzy grupami. Wnioski. Ekspozycja na ołów stymuluje mechanizmy obrony antyoksydacyjnej, jednakże mechanizmy te są niewystarczające by zapobiec stresowi oksydacyjnemu wywołanemu działaniem ołowiu.

Introduction: Chest pain is one of the symptoms of lung cancer. Chest pain disrupts patient’s functioning in somatic and psychic area. Purpose: Whether the existence of chest pain affects the level of perioperative anxiety in lung cancer patients. Is there a relationship between everyday functioning due to the chest pain and the level of perioperative anxiety? Is there a relation between anxiety associated with pain and gender? What is the cause of anxiety in this group of the patiens? Methodology: The study was conducted among 150 patients with lung cancer before the scheduled surgery. Data was collected with the use of questionnaire assessment of perioperative anxiety level in patients with lung cancer. Results: The chest pain before the surgery was confirmed by 63 (42%) patients, in case of 87 (58%) patients it was not identified. Chest pain was in case of 48% women and 36% men. 50 (33,3%) research participants who experienced chest pain and 35 patients (23,3%) without this symptom declared experiencing perioperative anxiety. In patients with lung cancer, the correlation: between chest pain and perioperative anxiety was (Z = -4.67; p< .001); between the difficult daily functioning of pain and perioperative anxiety was (Z = -4.72; p< .001); between gender and perioperative anxiety associated with pain was (Z = -3.24; p = 001). Patients afraid of: pain (37,3%), breathing problems (24,0%), physical disability (16,0%), eating problems (12,0%) sleep disorders (9,3%), nothing (1,3%). Conclusions: Patients with chest pain exhibited significantly higher of perioperative anxiety levels than non-symptomatic patients, as well as higher anxiety levels due to deteriorated daily functioning caused by the disorder. Women had a higher level of anxiety associated with pain than men before the surgery. Patients with lung cancer were most afraid of pain in the perioperative period.

Opis:
A complex model of mechanically ventilated ARDS lungs is proposed in the paper. This analogue is based on a combination of four components that describe breathing mechanics: morphology, mechanical properties of surfactant, tissue and chest wall characteristics. Physical-mathematical formulas attained from experimental data have been translated into their electrical equivalents and implemented in MultiSim software. To examine the adequacy of the forward model to the properties and behaviour of mechanically ventilated lungs in patients with ARDS symptoms, several computer simulations have been performed and reported in the paper. Inhomogeneous characteristics observed in the physical properties of ARDS lungs were mapped in a multi-lobe model and the measured outputs were compared with the data from physiological reports. In this way clinicians and scientists can obtain the knowledge on the moment of airway zone reopening/closure expressed as a function of pressure, volume or even time. In the paper, these trends were assessed for inhomogeneous distributions (proper for ARDS) of surfactant properties and airway geometry in consecutive lung lobes. The proposed model enables monitoring of temporal alveolar dynamics in successive lobes as well as those occurring at a higher level of lung structure organization, i.e. in a point P0 which can be used for collection of respiratory data during indirect management of recruitment/de-recruitment processes in ARDS lungs. The complex model and synthetic data generated for various parametrization scenarios make possible prospective studies on designing an indirect mode of alveolar zone management, i.e. with a minimized risk of repeated alveolar recruitment/de-recruitment and mechanical overstraining of lung tissues.

Introduction. Before cigarettes became popular, lung cancer was an extremely rare disease, but currently it is the most common cause worldwide of cancer death in both genders. Therefore, it constitutes a huge epidemiological, diagnostic and socio-economic challenge around the world. In Poland, lung cancer is the second most common carcinoma in both men and women, and it is also the most prevailing cause of carcinous death. Undoubtedly, although smoking classical cigarettes is the strongest risk factor of developing the cancer, unfortunately it is not the only one. Objective. The aim of this study was to present smoking-related factors, e.g. cigars, pipes, e-cigarettes or marijuana smoking, etiologically related to lung cancer incidence.

In cancer patients changes in the electrocardiogram (ECG) may indicate various causes. The presented case concerns a patient with advanced left lung cancer who presented deep inversion of T waves during ongoing chemotherapy. We excluded acute coronary syndrome, acute pulmonary embolism, and myocarditis. Subsequently, we suspected metastases to the myocardium; therefore, we performed cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, which however did not confirm that. The cardiac magnetic resonance imaging showed residual post-inflammatory changes in the left lung. We publish this case to show that the inflammatory process of lung segments adjacent to the heart may cause temporal myocardial oedema, resulting in ECG changes that may mimic acute coronary events.
