- The impact of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency alleles on lung cancer survival 14 marzo 2024Different studies have shown that carrying an alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency allele is an independent risk factor for developing lung cancer (LC). However, to date, little is known regarding whether carrying a deficiency allele may be a prognostic factor in the evolution of LC. A prospective observational study was carried out which consecutively included patients […]José María Hernández-Pérez

Adding PA to the original BODE index significantly improved the predictive capacity of the index. The HADO.2 score, which includes PA as a key variable, showed good predictive capacity for mortality and hospitalisations. There were […]Cristóbal Esteban

- Individualised, perioperative open-lung ventilation strategy during one-lung ventilation (iPROVE-OLV): a multicentre, randomised, controlled clinical trial 8 diciembre 2023BACKGROUND: It is uncertain whether individualisation of the perioperative open-lung approach (OLA) to ventilation reduces postoperative pulmonary complications in patients undergoing lung resection. We compared a perioperative individualised OLA (iOLA) ventilation strategy with standard lung-protective ventilation in patients undergoing thoracic surgery with one-lung ventilation.Carlos Ferrando
- Role of proton pump inhibitors dosage and duration in Helicobacter pylori eradication treatment: Results from the European Registry on H. pylori management 5 diciembre 2023CONCLUSIONS: We recommend, in first-line treatment, the use of high-dose PPIs in 14-day triple therapy and in 10-or 14-day quadruple concomitant therapy in first-line treatment, while standard-dose PPIs would be sufficient in 10-day bismuth quadruple therapies. On the other hand, in second-line treatment, high-dose PPIs would be more beneficial in 14-day triple therapy with levofloxacin […]Manuel Pabón-Carrasco
