Patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) who have high exposure to nitrogen dioxide (NO2) are at greater risk of disease progression, suggests a recent study.

Combination therapy using yttrium 90 (Y90) radioembolization and sorafenib/nivolumab for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), with hepatic vein (HV) or inferior vena cava (IVC) invasion, results in better outcomes, as indicated by increased response rates, overall survival (OS), and progression-free survival (PFS) benefits, a study has found.

Breathing exercise devices such as a conventional threshold loading training (TLT) device or an innovative respiratory training (IRT) device, when used in combination with lower torso sports training (LTST), proved beneficial in improving pulmonary function, exercise capacity, and quality of life (QoL) in individuals with asthma, a study suggests. However, IRT trumped TLT in terms of improvements in some respiratory and physical performance variables.

In a post hoc analysis of the phase III ARASENS study, the triplet regimen comprising darolutamide, androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), and docetaxel continued to show overall survival (OS) benefit for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) irrespective of disease volume and risk.
