J Sci Med Sport 2024:S1440-2440(24)00263-9. [PMID: 39155211 DOI: 10.1016/j.jsams.2024.08.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2024] [Revised: 05/24/2024] [Accepted: 08/02/2024] [Indexed: 08/20/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Lung cancer is the second most common cancer diagnosed worldwide, resulting in significant physical and psychological consequences. In this narrative review, we explore the role of exercise as an adjunct therapy to counteract health issues experienced by people before, during and after treatment for lung cancer, and offer recommendations for exercise prescription and future research. DESIGN Narrative cornerstone review. METHODS A narrative review was conducted to explore the role of exercise in cancer care for people diagnosed with lung cancer. RESULTS Improvements in fitness, strength and quality of life have been demonstrated in people with lung cancer following participation in exercise programmes before, during and post treatment. Whilst combined aerobic (50-100 % heart rate maximum) and resistance (50-85 % of 1 repetition maximum) training, 2-5 times per week across the cancer continuum is typically prescribed, few people with lung cancer currently access exercise services. 'Optimal' exercise prescription is unclear, although is likely individual-specific. The immediate priority is to identify a tolerable starting exercise dosage, with the side effects of lung cancer and its treatment on the respiratory system, particularly shortness of breath (dyspnoea), likely driving the initial maximum threshold for session mode, duration and intensity. To date, exercise safety for people with lung cancer has been poorly evaluated and reported - few trials report it, but those that do report small numbers of serious adverse events. CONCLUSIONS Recommendations for health professionals prescribing exercise therapy to people with lung cancer are provided, with consideration of the strengths and limitations of the current evidence base.

Zhang W, Zhang Y, Ouyang WW, Fa Su S, Ma Z, Li QS, Gang Yang W, Xia Chen X, Liu J, Lu B. Quality control of postoperative radiotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer: A study of mediastinal shift. Cancer Radiother 2024; 28:152-158. [PMID: 38320903 DOI: 10.1016/j.canrad.2023.06.032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2022] [Revised: 06/03/2023] [Accepted: 06/06/2023] [Indexed: 02/08/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to assess the shifting patterns of the mediastinum, including the target volume and the isocenter point during the postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) process of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and to observe the occurrence of radiation injury. Additionally, we investigated the significance of mid-term assessment during the implementation of the PORT process. MATERIAL AND METHODS We established coordinate axes based on bone anatomy and measured the mediastinum's three-dimensional direction and the shift of the isocenter point's shift in the PORT process. Statistical analysis was performed using Wilcoxon, Kruskal-Wallis, and the Chi-square test. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS In this study, the analysis of patients revealed that the shift of anterior and posterior mediastinum (X), left and right mediastinum (Y), upper and lower mediastinum (Z), anterior and posterior isocenter point (Xi), and the left and right isocenter points (Yi) in the PORT process were 0.04-0.53, 0.00-0.84, 0.00-1.27, 0.01-0.86, and 0.00-0.66cm, respectively. The shift distance of the mediastinum was Z>Y>X, and the shift distance of the isocenter point was Xi>Yi. According to the ROC curve, the cut-off values were 0.263, 0.352, 0.405, 0.238, and 0.258, respectively, which were more significant than the cut-off values in 25 cases (25%), 30 cases (30%), 30 cases (30%), 17 cases (17%), and 15 cases (15%). In addition, there was a significant difference in the shift of the mediastinum and the isocenter point (all P=0.00). Kruskal-Wallis test showed no statistically significant difference between mediastinal shift and resection site in X, Y, and Z directions (P=0.355, P=0.239, P=0.256), surgical method (P=0.241, P=0.110, P=0.064). There was no significant difference in the incidence of RE and RP in PORT patients (P>0.05). No III-IV RP occurred. However, the incidence of ≥ grade III RE in the modified plan cases after M-S was significantly lower than in the original PORT patients, 0% and 7%, respectively (P=0.000). CONCLUSION In conclusion, this study provides evidence that mediastinal shift is a potential complication during the PORT process for patients with N2 stage or R1-2 resection following radical resection of NSCLC. This shift affects about 20-30% of patients, manifesting as actual radiation damage to normal tissue and reducing the local control rate. Therefore, mid-term repositioning of the PORT and revision of the target volume and radiation therapy plan can aid in maintaining QA and QC during the treatment of NSCLC patients and may result in improved patient outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Physical activity (PA) has its place in the continuum of care, the objective being to limit alterations associated with cancer and its treatments. This review of the literature collates the evidence and current data relating to PA carried out at different periods of treatment for lung cancer. STATE OF THE ART PA is safe and feasible in patients with lung cancer throughout their oncologic treatment. The efficacy of multimodal programs is demonstrated regarding symptoms, exercise capacity, functional capacity, postoperative complications, length of hospital stay and quality of life. Nevertheless, this result remains to be confirmed with more robust upcoming trial, notably in the long term. PERSPECTIVES Utilization of activity and energy expenditure sensors or PA questionnaires could help to increase the PA level of lung cancer patients during their continuum of care. For those not at ease with conventional training modalities, it may be judicious to offer intermittent high-intensity training or respiratory muscle strength training. Telerehabilitation could also be implemented. The targeting of populations at high risk should be investigated. CONCLUSION Teams caring for patients with lung cancer during or after their oncologic treatment should develop innovative strategies designed to overcome difficulties of access or adherence to exercise programs, so that the PA be an integral part of the care of these patients. Physical therapists play an important role in supporting these patients during their assessment or treatment.

Abstract
Although thoracic surgery is understood to confer a high risk of postoperative respiratory complications, the substantial haemodynamic challenges posed are less well appreciated. This review highlights the influence of cardiovascular comorbidity on outcome, reviews the complex pathophysiological changes inherent in one-lung ventilation and lung resection, and examines their influence on cardiovascular complications and postoperative functional limitation. There is now good evidence for the presence of right ventricular dysfunction postoperatively, a finding that persists to at least 3 months. This dysfunction results from increased right ventricular afterload occurring both intraoperatively and persisting postoperatively. Although many patients adapt well, those with reduced right ventricular contractile reserve and reduced pulmonary vascular flow reserve might struggle. Postoperative right ventricular dysfunction has been implicated in the aetiology of postoperative atrial fibrillation and perioperative myocardial injury, both common cardiovascular complications which are increasingly being appreciated to have impact long into the postoperative period. In response to the physiological demands of critical illness or exercise, contractile reserve, flow reserve, or both can be overwhelmed resulting in acute decompensation or impaired long-term functional capacity. Aiding adaptation to the unique perioperative physiology seen in patients undergoing thoracic surgery could provide a novel therapeutic avenue to prevent cardiovascular complications and improve long-term functional capacity after surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung resection has been shown to impair right ventricular function. Although conventional measures of afterload do not change, surgical ligation of a pulmonary artery branch, as occurs during lobectomy, can create a unilateral proximal reflection site, increasing wave reflection (pulsatile component of afterload) and diverting blood flow through the contralateral pulmonary artery. We present a cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) observational cohort study of changes in wave reflection and right ventricular function after lung resection. METHODS Twenty-seven patients scheduled for open lobectomy for suspected lung cancer underwent cardiovascular MRI preoperatively, on postoperative Day 2, and at 2 months. Wave reflection was assessed in the left and right pulmonary arteries (operative and non-operative, as appropriate) by wave intensity analysis and calculation of wave reflection index. Pulmonary artery blood flow distribution was calculated as percentage of total blood flow travelling in the non-operative pulmonary artery. Right ventricular function was assessed by ejection fraction and strain analysis. RESULTS Operative pulmonary artery wave reflection increased from 4.3 (2.1-8.8) % preoperatively to 9.5 (4.9-14.9) % on postoperative Day 2 and 8.0 (2.3-11.7) % at 2 months (P<0.001) with an associated redistribution of blood flow towards the nonoperative pulmonary artery (r>0.523; P<0.010). On postoperative Day 2, impaired right ventricular ejection fraction was associated with increased operative pulmonary artery wave reflection (r=-0.480; P=0.028) and pulmonary artery blood flow redistribution (r=-0.545; P=0.011). At 2 months, impaired right ventricular ejection fraction and right ventricular strain were associated with pulmonary artery blood flow redistribution (r=-0.634, P=0.002; r=0.540, P=0.017). CONCLUSIONS Pulsatile afterload increased after lung resection. The unilateral increase in operative pulmonary artery wave reflection resulted in redistribution of blood flow through the nonoperative pulmonary artery and was associated with right ventricular dysfunction.

Abstract
Among malignant tumors, lung cancer has the highest morbidity and mortality worldwide. Surgery is the first-line treatment for early-stage lung cancers, and has gradually advanced from conventional open-chest surgery to video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS). Additionally, increasingly smaller surgical incisions and less surgical trauma have resulted in reduced pulmonary function damage. Previous studies have found that the level of pulmonary function loss and recovery is significantly correlated with postoperative complications and the quality of life. Thus, an accurate assessment of the preoperative pulmonary function and effective rehabilitation of postoperative pulmonary function are highly important for patients undergoing lung surgery. In addition, pulmonary function assessment after pulmonary rehabilitation serves as an objective indicator of the postoperative pulmonary rehabilitation status and is crucial to facilitating pulmonary function recovery. Furthermore, a complete preoperative assessment and effective rehabilitation are especially critical in elderly patients with pulmonary tumors, poor basic physiological functions, comorbid lung diseases, and other underlying diseases. In this review, we summarize the clinical significance of pulmonary function assessment in patients undergoing lung cancer surgery, postoperative changes in pulmonary function, effective pulmonary function rehabilitation, and the influencing factors of pulmonary function rehabilitation.

Abstract
Objective Only approximately 15% of patients with lung cancer are suitable for surgery and clinical postoperative outcomes vary. The aim of this study was to investigate variables associated with post-surgery respiratory failure in this patient cohort. Methods Patients who underwent surgery for lung cancer were retrospectively studied for respiratory function. All patients had undergone lung resection by a mini-thoracotomy approach. The study population was divided into two subgroups for comparison: lobectomy group, who underwent lobar resection; and sub-lobar resection group. Results A total of 85 patients were included, with a prevalence of lung cancer stage IA and adenocarcinoma histotype. Lobectomy (versus sub-lobar resection), the presence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and a COPD assessment test (CAT) score >10, were all associated with an increased risk of respiratory failure. The partial pressure of arterial oxygen decreased more in the lobectomy group than in the sub-lobar resection group following surgery, with a significant postoperative between-group difference in values. Postoperative CAT scores were also better in the sub-lobar resection group. Conclusions Post-surgical variations in functional parameters were greater in the group treated by lobectomy. COPD, high CAT score and surgery type were associated with postoperative development of respiratory failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although pulmonary rehabilitation is helpful for patients following lung cancer surgery, rehabilitation is not widely available, due in part to a lack of medical resources. Recent developments in digital health care have overcome the space limitations associated with in-person health care. This study will evaluate and compare the efficacy of three different smartphone healthcare systems in patients with lung cancer. METHODS This single center randomized controlled study is designed to evaluate the efficacy of digital healthcare applications for lung cancer patients after thoracoscopic lung resection. A total of 320 patients will be enrolled and randomized 1:1:1:1 into four different groups, with one group each using the smartphone applications NOOM, Walkon, and Efilcare and the fourth being the control group without intervention. Questionnaires will be administered to patients at baseline and after 3, 6, and 12 months. The primary endpoint will be the score on the EuroQol five-dimension index. Secondary endpoints will include other questionnaires about quality of life and dyspnea. DISCUSSION This prospective randomized controlled study may allow assessments and comparisons of the efficacy of various smartphone applications in patients who undergo lung cancer surgery. This process may enable the introduction of healthcare interventions that maintain quality of life in patients with lung cancer. Trial registration CRIS, KCT0005447.

Abstract
Background Electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB)‐guided transbronchial dye marking and video‐assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is an emerging technique that enables successful resection of multiple small subsolid pulmonary nodules. The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy and safety of preoperative ENB‐guided transbronchial multiple dye localization for VATS resection of subsolid pulmonary nodules. Methods As a single‐center pilot study, we recruited patients with at least two small or subsolid pulmonary nodules. Multiple‐dye localization was performed by intraoperative ENB‐guided transbronchial injection of an indigo carmine dye. The patients underwent VATS for sublobar resection immediately after localization. The accuracy of ENB‐guided dye marking was checked. Results ENB‐guided one‐stage multiple dye localization was conducted for 18 pulmonary nodules in seven patients between September 2018 and December 2019. The mean diameter of the pulmonary nodules was 9.3 mm (range, 4–18) and the mean distance from the pleura to pulmonary nodule was 6 mm (range, 1–17 mm). ENB‐guided transbronchial multiple dye localization was successfully performed in 94.4% (17/18), and the accuracy of ENB‐guided dye marking was 88.2% (15/17). When two nodules were not seen in intraoperative fields, anatomical sublobar resection was performed. There was no conversion to thoracotomy and operative mortalities. Among the seven patients, only one patient showed mild intrabronchial bleeding but stopped spontaneously. The changes in lung function after multiple wedge resections (−1.6% to 24.8%) were tolerable level. Conclusions ENB‐guided one‐stage transbronchial dye localization showed accurate and safe intraoperative identification of multiple subsolid pulmonary nodules. A large scale prospective clinical study is warranted.

Effects and tolerability of exercise therapy modality on cardiorespiratory fitness in lung cancer: a randomized controlled trial. J Cachexia Sarcopenia Muscle 2021; 12:1456-1465. [PMID: 34658160 PMCID: PMC8718021 DOI: 10.1002/jcsm.12828] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2021] [Revised: 09/01/2021] [Accepted: 09/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Poor cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is a cardinal feature of post-treatment primary lung cancer. The most effective exercise therapy regimen to improve CRF has not been determined. METHODS In this parallel-group factorial randomized controlled trial, lung cancer survivors with poor CRF (below age-sex sedentary values) were randomly allocated to receive 48 consecutive supervised sessions thrice weekly of (i) aerobic training (AT)-cycle ergometry at 55% to >95% of peak oxygen consumption (VO2 peak); (ii) resistance training (RT)-lower and upper extremity exercises at 50-85% of maximal strength; (iii) combination training (CT)-AT plus RT; or (iv) stretching attention control (AC) for 16 weeks. The primary endpoint was change in CRF (VO2 peak, mL O2 ·kg-1 ·min-1 ). Secondary endpoints were body composition, muscle strength, patient-reported outcomes, tolerability (relative dose intensity of exercise), and safety. Analysis of covariance determined change in primary and secondary endpoints from baseline to post-intervention (Week 17) with adjustment for baseline values of the endpoint and other relevant clinical covariates. RESULTS Ninety patients (65 ± 9 years; 66% female) were randomized (AT, n = 24; RT, n = 23; CT, n = 20; and AC, n = 23) of the planned n = 160. No serious adverse events were observed. For the overall cohort, the lost-to-follow-up rate was 10%. Mean attendance was ≥75% in all groups. In intention-to-treat analysis, VO2 peak increased 1.1 mL O2 ·kg-1 ·min-1 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.0, 2.2, P = 0.04] and 1.4 mL O2 ·kg-1 ·min-1 (95% CI: 0.2, 2.5, P = 0.02) in AT and CT, respectively, compared with AC. There was no difference in VO2 peak change between RT and AC (-0.1 mL O2 ·kg-1 ·min-1 , 95% CI: -1.2, 1.0, P = 0.88). Favourable improvements in maximal strength and body composition were observed in RT and CT groups compared with AT and AC groups (Ps < 0.05). No between-group changes were observed for any patient-reported outcomes. Relative dose intensity of exercise was lower in RT and CT compared with AT (Ps < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS In the context of a smaller than planned sample size, AT and CT significantly improved VO2 peak in lung cancer survivors; however, the tolerability-to-benefit ratio was superior for AT and hence may be the preferred modality to target impaired CRF in post-treatment lung cancer survivors.

Abstract
The introduction of video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) techniques has led to a new approach in thoracic surgery. VATS is performed by inserting a thoracoscope through a small incisions in the chest wall, thus maximizing the preservation of muscle and tissue. Because of its low rate of morbidity and mortality, VATS is currently the technique of choice in most thoracic procedures. Lung resection by VATS reduces prolonged air leaks, arrhythmia, pneumonia, postoperative pain and inflammatory markers. This reduction in postoperative complications shortens hospital length of stay, and is particularly beneficial in high-risk patients with low tolerance to thoracotomy. Compared with conventional thoracotomy, the oncological results of VATS surgery are similar or even superior to those of open surgery. This aim of this multidisciplinary position statement produced by the thoracic surgery working group of the Spanish Society of Anesthesiology and Reanimation (SEDAR), the Spanish Society of Thoracic Surgery (SECT), and the Spanish Association of Physiotherapy (AEF) is to standardize and disseminate a series of perioperative anaesthesia management guidelines for patients undergoing VATS lung resection surgery. Each recommendation is based on an in-depth review of the available literature by the authors. In this document, the care of patients undergoing VATS surgery is organized in sections, starting with the surgical approach, and followed by the three pillars of anaesthesia management: preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative anaesthesia.

Interact Cardiovasc Thorac Surg 2021; 33:727-733. [PMID: 34115872 DOI: 10.1093/icvts/ivab168] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2021] [Revised: 04/10/2021] [Accepted: 05/05/2021] [Indexed: 11/12/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Postoperative pulmonary function is difficult to predict accurately, because it changes from the time of the operation and is also affected by various factors. The objective of this study was to assess the accuracy of predicted postoperative forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) at different postoperative times after lobectomy. METHODS This retrospective study enrolled 104 patients who underwent lobectomy by video-assisted thoracic surgery. Pulmonary function tests were performed preoperatively and postoperatively at 3, 6 and 12 months. We investigated time-dependent changes in FEV1. In addition, the ratio of measured to predicted postoperative FEV1 calculated by the subsegmental method was evaluated to identify the factors associated with variations in postoperative FEV1. RESULTS Compared with the predicted postoperative FEV1, the measured postoperative FEV1 was 8% higher at 3 months, 11% higher at 6 months and 13% higher at 12 months. The measured postoperative FEV1 significantly increased from 3 to 6 months (P = 0.002) and from 6 to 12 months (P = 0.015) after lobectomy resected lobe, smoking history and body mass index were significant factors associated with the ratio of measured to predicted postoperative FEV1 at 12 months (P < 0.001, P = 0.036 and P = 0.025, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Postoperative FEV1 increased up to 12 months after lobectomy by video-assisted thoracic surgery. The predicted postoperative pulmonary function was underestimated after 3 months, particularly after lower lobectomy.

Persistence of the Postoperative Change in the Six-minute Walking Distance of Lung Cancer Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. Prog Rehabil Med 2021; 6:20210022. [PMID: 34013089 PMCID: PMC8103386 DOI: 10.2490/prm.20210022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2020] [Accepted: 04/22/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives: The aim of this prospective follow-up study was to investigate the difference before
and after surgery in the six-minute walking distance (6MD) of lung cancer patients with
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and to examine the long-term effect of the
change in 6MD in the early postoperative period. Methods: This was a retrospective analysis of 25 COPD patients who underwent lung cancer surgery
and perioperative rehabilitation in our department. Assessments of 6WD were carried out
preoperatively and at 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively. The changes in 6MD at 1, 3,
and 6 months postoperatively compared with the preoperative value were designated the
1-month Δ6MD, the 3-month Δ6MD, and the 6-month Δ6MD, and the associations between them
were investigated. Results: The mean 6MD distance was 412.0±27.3 m (95% confidence interval) preoperatively,
369.0±33.8 m at 1 month, 395.6±32.2 m at 3 months, and 400.0±38.2 m at 6 months, with a
significant difference between the preoperative and 1-month values (P<0.01). There
were strong correlations between 1-month and 3-month Δ6MDs (r =0.74,
P<0.0001) and between 1-month and 6-month Δ6MDs (r =0.88,
P<0.0001). Conclusions: In lung cancer patients with COPD, the 1-month Δ6MD was strongly associated with both
the 3-month Δ6MD and the 6-month Δ6MD. These findings suggest that the decrease in
exercise tolerance of patients whose 6MD is low at 1 month postoperatively may be
prolonged, and such patients may therefore be in greater need of postoperative
outpatient rehabilitation.

Outcomes of lobectomy on pulmonary function for early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Thorac Cancer 2020; 11:1784-1789. [PMID: 32374491 PMCID: PMC7592038 DOI: 10.1111/1759-7714.13445] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2020] [Revised: 04/02/2020] [Accepted: 04/04/2020] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung cancer is the first cause of cancer mortality worldwide. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an independent risk factor for lung cancer. An epidemiological survey discovered that the presence of COPD increases the risk of lung cancer by 4.5-fold. Lobectomy is considered to be the standard surgical method for early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the influence of lobectomy on the loss of pulmonary function has not been fully investigated in NSCLC patients with COPD. METHODS We searched the PubMed database using the following strategies: COPD and pulmonary function test (MeSH term) and lobectomy (MeSH term) from 01 January 1990 to 01 January 2019. We selected the articles of patients with COPD. A total of six studies, including 195 patients with COPD, provided lung function values before and after surgery. RESULTS Five out of six studies focused on the short-term change of pulmonary function (within 3-6 months) after lobectomy, and the average loss of FEV1 was 0.11 L (range: -0.33-0.09 L). One study investigated the long-term change of pulmonary function (within 1-2 years) after lobectomy, and the average loss of FEV1 was 0.15 L (range: -0.29-0.05 L). CONCLUSIONS A short-term (3-6 months) loss of pulmonary function after operation is acceptable for lung cancer patients with COPD. However, there may be a high risk of postoperative complications in NSCLC patients with COPD. Therefore, surgical treatment needs to be carefully considered for these patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Following lung resection, there is a decrease in the functional capacity and quality of life, which is not fully explained by changes in pulmonary function. Previous work demonstrates that B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) is associated with short- and long-term complications following lung resection, leading to the suggestion that cardiac dysfunction may contribute to functional deterioration. Our aim was to investigate any relationship between BNP and subjective and objective indices of functional deterioration following lung resection surgery. METHODS Twenty-seven patients undergoing lung resection had serum BNP measured preoperatively, on postoperative day (POD)1 and POD2, and at 2 months postoperatively. The functional deterioration was assessed using 6-min walk tests and the Medical Research Council dyspnoea scale. 'Deterioration in functional capacity' was defined as either an increase in the Medical Research Council dyspnoea score or a significant decrease in the 6-min walk test distance. RESULTS BNP increased over time (P < 0.01) and was significantly elevated on POD1 and POD2 (P < 0.02 for both). Seventeen patients demonstrated functional deterioration 2 months postoperatively. At all perioperative time points, BNP was significantly higher in patients showing deterioration (P < 0.05 for all). Preoperative BNP was predictive of functional deterioration at 2 months with an area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve of 0.82 (P = 0.01, 95% confidence interval 0.65-0.99). CONCLUSIONS This study has demonstrated, using subjective and objective measures, that preoperative BNP is a predictor of functional deterioration following lung resection. BNP may have a role in preoperative risk stratification in this population, allowing therapy in future to be targeted towards high-risk patients with the aim of preventing postoperative cardiac dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Decreased exercise capacity and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) are common in people following lung resection for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Exercise training has been demonstrated to confer gains in exercise capacity and HRQoL for people with a range of chronic conditions, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and heart failure, as well as in people with prostate and breast cancer. A programme of exercise training may also confer gains in these outcomes for people following lung resection for NSCLC. This systematic review updates our 2013 systematic review. OBJECTIVES The primary aim of this review was to determine the effects of exercise training on exercise capacity and adverse events in people following lung resection (with or without chemotherapy) for NSCLC. The secondary aims were to determine the effects of exercise training on other outcomes such as HRQoL, force-generating capacity of peripheral muscles, pressure-generating capacity of the respiratory muscles, dyspnoea and fatigue, feelings of anxiety and depression, lung function, and mortality. SEARCH METHODS We searched for additional randomised controlled trials (RCTs) in the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) (the Cochrane Library 2019, Issue 2 of 12), MEDLINE (via PubMed) (2013 to February 2019), Embase (via Ovid) (2013 to February 2019), SciELO (The Scientific Electronic Library Online) (2013 to February 2019), and PEDro (Physiotherapy Evidence Database) (2013 to February 2019). SELECTION CRITERIA We included RCTs in which participants with NSCLC who underwent lung resection were allocated to receive either exercise training, which included aerobic exercise, resistance exercise, or a combination of both, or no exercise training. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two review authors screened the studies and identified those eligible for inclusion. We used either postintervention values (with their respective standard deviation (SD)) or mean changes (with their respective SD) in the meta-analyses that reported results as mean difference (MD). In meta-analyses that reported results as standardised mean difference (SMD), we placed studies that reported postintervention values and those that reported mean changes in separate subgroups. We assessed the certainty of evidence for each outcome by downgrading or upgrading the evidence according to GRADE criteria. MAIN RESULTS Along with the three RCTs included in the original version of this review (2013), we identified an additional five RCTs in this update, resulting in a total of eight RCTs involving 450 participants (180 (40%) females). The risk of selection bias in the included studies was low and the risk of performance bias high. Six studies explored the effects of combined aerobic and resistance training; one explored the effects of combined aerobic and inspiratory muscle training; and one explored the effects of combined aerobic, resistance, inspiratory muscle training and balance training. On completion of the intervention period, compared to the control group, exercise capacity expressed as the peak rate of oxygen uptake (VO2peak) and six-minute walk distance (6MWD) was greater in the intervention group (VO2peak: MD 2.97 mL/kg/min, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.93 to 4.02 mL/kg/min, 4 studies, 135 participants, moderate-certainty evidence; 6MWD: MD 57 m, 95% CI 34 to 80 m, 5 studies, 182 participants, high-certainty evidence). One adverse event (hip fracture) related to the intervention was reported in one of the included studies. The intervention group also achieved greater improvements in the physical component of general HRQoL (MD 5.0 points, 95% CI 2.3 to 7.7 points, 4 studies, 208 participants, low-certainty evidence); improved force-generating capacity of the quadriceps muscle (SMD 0.75, 95% CI 0.4 to 1.1, 4 studies, 133 participants, moderate-certainty evidence); and less dyspnoea (SMD -0.43, 95% CI -0.81 to -0.05, 3 studies, 110 participants, very low-certainty evidence). We observed uncertain effects on the mental component of general HRQoL, disease-specific HRQoL, handgrip force, fatigue, and lung function. There were insufficient data to comment on the effect of exercise training on maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressures and feelings of anxiety and depression. Mortality was not reported in the included studies. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS Exercise training increased exercise capacity and quadriceps muscle force of people following lung resection for NSCLC. Our findings also suggest improvements on the physical component score of general HRQoL and decreased dyspnoea. This systematic review emphasises the importance of exercise training as part of the postoperative management of people with NSCLC.

Abstract
Pulmonary rehabilitation is a core aspect in the management of patients with chronic respiratory diseases. This paper describes a practical approach to establishing pulmonary rehabilitation for patients with non-COPD diagnoses using examples from the interstitial lung disease (ILD), pulmonary hypertension (PH), bronchiectasis and lung cancer patient populations. Aspects of pulmonary rehabilitation, including the rationale, patient selection, setting of programmes, patient assessment and training components (both exercise and non-exercise aspects), are discussed for these patient groups. Whilst there are many similarities in the rationale and application of pulmonary rehabilitation across these non-COPD populations, there are also many subtle differences, which are discussed in detail in this paper. With consideration of these factors, pulmonary rehabilitation programmes can be adapted to facilitate the inclusion of respiratory patients with non-COPD diagnoses.

Association between Pulmonary Function and Stair-Climbing Test Results after Lung Resection: A Pilot Study. Can Respir J 2018; 2018:1925028. [PMID: 30271508 PMCID: PMC6151193 DOI: 10.1155/2018/1925028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2018] [Accepted: 08/18/2018] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The stair-climbing test was used to assess the exercise capacity before lung resection in subjects with lung cancer. However, few studies have systematically evaluated the role of this exercise methodology as a postoperative test. The aim of the present study was to assess whether the stair-climbing test findings reflect the postoperative decrease in pulmonary function. Methods Twenty subjects with non-small-cell lung cancer who underwent lung resection were enrolled in the study. Perioperative functional evaluation comprised the pulmonary function test, stair-climbing test, and 6-min walk distance test (6MWD). A correlation analysis was performed between the postoperative percentages of pulmonary function with respect to preoperative values and the exercise capacity. Results No correlation was noted between the percentage changes in pulmonary function and those in 6MWD. However, there was a significant correlation between the percentage changes in forced expiratory volume in 1 s and those in the altitude reached in the stair-climbing test (r=0.46, p < 0.05) and between the percentage changes in carbon monoxide lung diffusion capacity and those in the altitude (r=0.54, p < 0.05). Conclusions The stair-climbing test findings might be effective at detecting changes in exercise capacity induced by postoperative decrease in pulmonary function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are no published reports on predictors of oxygen (O2) use after lung cancer surgery. The prospect of O2 use after lung cancer surgery may affect a patient's therapy choice. METHODS The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER)-Medicare data set was queried to identify patients diagnosed with primary lung cancer (stage I/II) who underwent surgical resection from 1994 to 2010. Patients with a second resection within 6 months of their first and those with preoperative O2 use were excluded. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to evaluate the odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals of O2 use (defined as being billed for home O2) after discharge for lung cancer surgery. RESULTS Of 21,245 eligible patients from 1994 to 2010, 3,255 (15.3%) were billed for O2 use in the first month of discharge. Of these, 13.7% (447 of 3,255) stopped using within 1 month, and 1.47% died. By 6 months, an additional 6.7% died, and 46.27% (1,384 of 2,991) were still alive and using O2. Discharge on O2 was associated with higher odds of death within 6 months (odds ratio, 1.35; 95% confidence interval, 1.17 to 1.55). The significant, independent risk factors for O2 use at discharge were procedure, sex, race, histology, pulmonary comorbidities, obesity, length of stay, pulmonary complications, and discharge mode. CONCLUSIONS Home O2 use after lung cancer surgery comprises a sizable portion of this population and is correlated with death in the first 6 months. Various predictors significantly increased the risk of O2 use at discharge. However, 49.3% of those originally discharged on O2 were alive and off O2 at 6 months.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung function in the late postoperative phase after pulmonary lobectomy is insufficiently characterized. This study aimed to appraise lung function in the late postoperative phase according to vital capacity (VC) and forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) in patients who underwent pulmonary lobectomy. METHODS Pre- and postoperative VC and FEV1 were reviewed in 112 patients who underwent pulmonary lobectomy. Postoperative lung volume was assessed >1 year after surgery. Postoperative decreases in VC and FEV1 were compared with preoperative predicted values among patients who underwent resection of specific lobe. Determinants effecting a decrease in lung function were also investigated. RESULTS A mean postoperative decreased VC of 10.5%±1.8% was recorded in patients who underwent right upper lobectomy (RU), 7.2%±1.5% for right middle lobectomy (RM), 14.3%±2.3% for right lower lobectomy (RL), 16.6%±3.0% for left upper lobectomy (LU), and 14.7%±2.5% for left lower lobectomy (LL). Corresponding FEV1 values were 14.8%±1.8% for RU, 11.9%±4.0% for RM, 14.9%±2.3% for RL, 17.9%±2.9% for LU, and 15.1%±2.4% for LL. The actual decreasing rate of VC was overestimated in patients who underwent RU, RL, LU, and LL. In contrast, FEV1 was overestimated only in patients who underwent RL and LL. Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exhibited significantly better preservation of FEV1. CONCLUSIONS Patients scheduled for RL and LL, or those with COPD, appeared to exhibit preserved lung function in the late postoperative phase after pulmonary lobectomy.

A comparison of the functional parameters of operability in patients with post-inflammatory lung disease and those with lung cancer requiring lung resection. Afr J Thorac Crit Care Med 2018; 24. [PMID: 34541491 PMCID: PMC8432918 DOI: 10.7196/ajtccm2018.v24i1.158] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 10/10/2017] [Indexed: 11/08/2022] Open
Abstract
Background
It is a common, yet unproven, belief that patients with post-inflammatory lung disease have a better functional reserve than
patients with lung cancer when compared with their respective functional parameters of operability – forced expiratory volume in one
second (FEV1), maximum oxygen uptake in litres per minute (VO2 max) and the diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO).
Objectives
The aim of this study was to compare a group of patients with lung cancer with a group with post-inflammatory lung disease
according to their respective functional parameters of operability. We also aimed to investigate any associations of FEV1
and/or DLCO with VO2 max within the two groups.
Methods
We retrospectively included 100 adult patients considered for lung resection. All patients were worked up using a validated
algorithm and were then sub-analysed according to their parameters of functional operability.
Results
Two-thirds of patients had post-inflammatory lung diseases whilst the rest had lung cancer. The majority of the patients in the lung
cancer group had coexistent chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (n=18). Most (n=47) of the patients in the post-inflammatory
group were diagnosed with a form of pulmonary TB (active or previous). Among the two groups, the lung cancer group had a higher median
%FEV1
value (62.0%; interquartile range (IQR) 51.0 - 76.0) compared with the post-inflammatory group (52%; IQR 42.0 - 63.0; p=0.01).
There was no difference for the %DLCO and %VO2 max values. The lung cancer group also had higher predicted postoperative (ppo)
values for %FEV1
(41.0%; IQR 31.0 - 58.0 v. 34.0%; IQR 23.0 - 46.0; p=0.03, respectively) and %VO2 max (58.0%; IQR 44.0 - 68.0 v. 46.0%;
IQR 35.0 - 60.0; p=0.02). There was no difference in the %DLCO ppo values between the groups.
Conclusion
Patients with lung cancer had higher percentage values for FEV1
and ppo parameters for %FEV1
and %VO2 max compared with
those who had post-inflammatory lung disease. Our findings suggest that lung cancer patients have a better functional reserve.

Associations of objectively assessed physical activity and sedentary time with health-related quality of life among lung cancer survivors: A quantile regression approach. Lung Cancer 2018; 119:78-84. [PMID: 29656757 DOI: 10.1016/j.lungcan.2018.03.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2017] [Revised: 02/05/2018] [Accepted: 03/09/2018] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES No studies have examined objectively assessed physical activity, sedentary time, and patient-reported outcomes among lung cancer survivors. The objective of this study was to determine associations of objectively assessed moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) and sedentary time with health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and fatigue among lung cancer survivors. MATERIALS AND METHOD Lung cancer survivors in Southern Alberta (N = 540) were invited to complete a mailed survey that assessed HRQoL [Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Lung (FACT-L)], physical and functional well-being [Trial Outcome Index (TOI)], and fatigue [Fatigue Scale (FS)]. Physical activity and sedentary time data was collected using an Actigraph® GT3X+ accelerometer that was worn on the hip for seven consecutive days. Quantile regression was used to examine associations of HRQoL and fatigue with physical activity and sedentary time at the 25th, 50th, and 75th HRQoL and fatigue percentiles. RESULTS A total of 127 lung cancer survivors participated for a 24% response rate (Mean age = 71 years; Mean time since diagnosis = 75 months). Total MVPA minutes was positively associated with fewer fatigue symptoms at the 25th percentile (β = 0.16, p = 0.046). Total sedentary time was inversely associated with HRQoL at the 75th percentile (β = -0.07, p = 0.014) and inversely associated with fatigue symptoms at the 50th percentile (β = -0.04, p = 0.009). Total sedentary time was also inversely associated with physical and functional well-being scores at the 25th (β = -0.07, p = 0.045), 50th (β = -0.07, p = 0.004) and 75th (β = -0.04, p = 0.035) percentiles. CONCLUSION Across the HRQoL, fatigue, and physical and functional well-being distributions, sedentary time was inversely associated with HRQoL, fatigue, and physical and functional well-being in lung cancer survivors. Small associations were observed between MVPA and fatigue, but no associations emerged with HRQoL or physical and functional well-being.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine demographic and clinical correlates of accelerometer assessed physical activity and sedentary time among a population-based sample of lung cancer survivors. METHODS Lung cancer survivors in Southern Alberta, Canada (N = 527) were invited to complete a mailed survey assessing socio-demographics and wear an Actigraph® GT3X+ accelerometer for 7 days. Average daily minutes of physical activity and sedentary time were derived from the accelerometer data. Accelerometer data were processed using standard Freedson cutpoints, and correlates of physical activity and sedentary time were determined with linear regression. RESULTS A total of 127 lung cancer survivors participated (mean age = 71 years), for a 24% response rate. Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity was negatively associated with being >60 years of age (β = -7.4, CI: -14.7, -0.10). Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity accumulated in 10-minute bouts was associated with receiving surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy (β = 9.1, CI: 2.1, 16.1). Sedentary time was associated with being >60 years of age (β = 32.4, CI: 3.1, 61.7), smoking (β = 63.9, CI: 22.5, 105.4), and being overweight/obese (β = 28.6, CI: 6.4, 50.1). CONCLUSION Age, smoking history, and body mass index emerged as correlates of accelerometer assessed light, moderate, and vigorous physical activity, and sedentary time among lung cancer survivors. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS Identifying correlates of physical activity and sedentary time may aid in the development of targeted behavioral interventions for this population.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Surgery is the standard curative treatment for lung cancer but is only possible in patients with local tumour and preserved exercise capacity. Improving fitness before surgery can reduce postoperative complications and mortality. However, preoperative rehabilitation remains difficult to implement for several reasons. We aim to investigate the effectiveness of an intensive 3-week home-based preoperative exercise training programme on hospital discharge ability, postoperative complications and physical performance in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who are eligible for lung cancer surgery. METHODS AND ANALYSIS We designed a multicentre randomised controlled trial. The randomisation sequence will be generated and managed electronically by a research manager independent of assessments or interventions. We will recruit 90 patients with COPD and a diagnosis of lung cancer from four university hospitals. The rehabilitation group (R group) will receive a standardised preoperative home exercise programme for 3 weeks, combining both high-intensity training and usual physical therapy. The R group will perform 15 training sessions over 3 weeks on a cycloergometer. A physical therapist experienced in pulmonary rehabilitation will visit the patient at home and supervise one session a week. The R group will be compared with a control group receiving preoperative usual physical therapy only. The primary outcome will be hospital discharge ability assessed with a 10-item list. Secondary outcomes will be postoperative course (complication rate and mortality) as well as pulmonary function, exercise capacity and quality of life assessed 1 month before and the day before surgery. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This protocol has been approved by the French health authority for research (2016-A00622-49) and the research ethics committee/institutional review board (AU1267). Adverse events that occur during the protocol will be reported to the principal investigator. The results will be published in an international peer-reviewed journal. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT03020251.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) emerged as a minimally invasive surgery for diseases in the field of thoracic surgery. We herein reviewed our experience on thoracoscopic lobectomy for early lung cancer and evaluated Health System use. METHODS A cost-effectiveness study was performed comparing VATS vs. open thoracic surgery (OPEN) for lung cancer patients. Demographic data, tumor localization, dynamic pulmonary function tests [forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), diffusion capacity (DLCO) and maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max)], surgical approach, postoperative details, and complications were recorded and analyzed. RESULTS One hundred seventeen patients underwent lung resection by VATS (n=42, 36%; age: 63±9 years old, 57% males) or OPEN (n=75, 64%; age: 61±11 years old, 73% males). Pulmonary function tests decreased just after surgery with a parallel increasing tendency during first 12 months. VATS group tended to recover FEV1 and FVC quicker with significantly less clinical and post-surgical complications (31% vs. 53%, P=0.015). Costs including surgery and associated hospital stay, complications and costs in the 12 months after surgery were significantly lower for VATS (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The VATS approach surgery allowed earlier recovery at a lower cost than OPEN with a better cost-effectiveness profile.

Chest wall resection for non-small cell lung cancer: A case-matched study of postoperative pulmonary function and quality of life. Lung Cancer 2017; 106:37-41. [PMID: 28285692 DOI: 10.1016/j.lungcan.2017.01.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2016] [Revised: 01/24/2017] [Accepted: 01/26/2017] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND To assess the pulmonary function and quality of life (QOL) after chest wall resection for non-small cell lung cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS One hundred and thirty-five patients (cases) who underwent pulmonary resection with chest wall removal were identified from January 1997 to December 2015. Propensity score matching (1:3) was applied to balance known confounders for pulmonary function and QOL between the cases and the control group who underwent pulmonary resection without chest wall invasion. Matched analyses were performed to compare perioperative mortality and morbidity, postoperative pulmonary function, overall QOL, and specific symptoms. RESULTS Perioperative mortality and morbidity did not differ significantly between cases and controls, but the hospital stay was longer in cases than in controls (mean, 12.8 vs 8.9days; p<0.001), The decline of postoperative pulmonary forced vital capacity (FVC) and the percentage of predicted FVC (FVC%) was more obvious in cases than in controls at 6 months and 2 years after surgery, but there was no obvious decline in the forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), the percentage of predicted FEV1 (FEV1%), the diffusion capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) and the percentage of predicted DLCO (DLCO%) in cases compared with controls. No significant difference was observed between the two groups in scores for overall QOL, pain, fatigue, cough, dyspnea, appetite, hemoptysis, lung cancer symptoms, and normal activities. CONCLUSIONS When chest wall resection is inevitable, it does not worse the QOL and pulmonary function of patients who underwent pulmonary resection with chest wall removal obviously compared with patients underwent pulmonary resection without chest wall invasion.

Abstract
The harm associated with lung cancer treatment include perioperative morbidity and mortality and therapy-induced toxicities in various organs, including the heart and lungs. Optimal treatment therefore entails a need for risk assessment to weigh the probabilities of benefits versus harm. Exercise testing offers an opportunity to evaluate a patient's physical fitness/exercise capacity objectively. In lung cancer, it is most often used to risk-stratify patients undergoing evaluation for lung cancer resection. In recent years, its use outside this context has been described, including in nonsurgical candidates and lung cancer survivors. In this article we review the physiology of exercise testing and lung cancer. Then, we assess the utility of exercise testing in patients with lung cancer in four contexts (preoperative evaluation for lung cancer resection, after lung cancer resection, lung cancer prognosis, and assessment of efficiency of exercise training programs) after systematically identifying original studies involving the most common forms of exercise tests in this patient population: laboratory cardiopulmonary exercise testing and simple field testing with the 6-minute walk test, shuttle walk test, and/or stair-climbing test. Lastly, we propose a conceptual framework for risk assessment of patients with lung cancer who are being considered for therapy and identify areas for further studies in this patient population.

Abstract
This study is aimed to (i) compare both the magnitude of impairment in exercise capacity and exercise responses measured during the six-minute walk test (6MWT) and the cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) and (ii) investigate the effect of test repetition on six-minute walk distance (6MWD) in people following curative intent treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Twenty participants (67 ± 10 years; 14 females), 6-10 weeks following lobectomy, underwent a CPET and two 6MWTs. Peak exercise responses, dyspnoea and leg fatigue, as well as heart rate (HR) and oxygen saturation (SpO2) during the 6MWT, were compared to those during the CPET. Compared with exercise capacity when expressed as peak rate of oxygen consumption (%pred) measured during the CPET, exercise capacity when expressed as 6MWD (%pred) was less impaired (81 ± 10 vs. 63 ± 15 %pred; p < 0.001). Compared with the CPET, the 6MWT elicited lower peak HR (119 ± 15 vs. 128 ± 18 beats minute(-1); p = 0.02), lower SpO2 (93 ± 2 vs. 95 ± 3%; p < 0.05), less dyspnoea (3.1 ± 1.6 vs. 6.9 ± 2.6; p < 0.01) and less leg fatigue (2.0 ± 1.9 vs. 6.8 ± 2.4; p < 0.01). The 6MWD increased 19 ± 19 metre (4 ± 4%) with test repetition (p < 0.001). In people following curative intent treatment for NSCLC, the 6MWT appears to elicit sub-maximal exercise responses when compared with the CPET. There is a significant effect of test repetition on 6MWD.

Abstract
Lung cancer continues to be a difficult disease frequently diagnosed in late stages with a high mortality and symptom burden. In part because of frequent lung comorbidity, even lung cancer survivors often remain symptomatic and functionally limited. Though targeted therapy continues to increase treatment options for advanced-stage disease, symptom burden remains high with few therapeutic options. In the last several decades, exercise and physical activity have arisen as therapeutic options for obstructive lung disease and lung cancer. To date, exercise has been shown to reduce symptoms, increase exercise tolerance, improve quality of life, and potentially reduce length of stay and postoperative complications. Multiple small trials have been performed in perioperative non-small-cell lung cancer patients, although fewer studies are available for patients with advanced-stage disease. Despite the increased interest in this subject over the last few years, a validated exercise regimen has not been established for perioperative or advanced-stage disease. Clinicians underutilize exercise and pulmonary rehabilitation as a therapy, in part because of the lack of evidence-based consensus as to how and when to implement increasing physical activity. This review summarizes the existing evidence on exercise in lung cancer patients.

Abstract
Aim To evaluate the effect of lung cancer surgery on cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), and to assess the agreement between the predicted postoperative (ppo) V̇O2peak and actually measured postoperative peak oxygen uptake (V̇O2peak). Methods Before and 4–6 weeks after lung cancer surgery, 70 patients (35 women) underwent measurements of pulmonary function and CRF via a cardiopulmonary exercise test. In addition, the 23 non-exercising patients underwent measurements after 6 months. The ppo V̇O2peak calculated from the number of functional segments removed was compared with the actually measured postoperative values of V̇O2peak for accuracy and precision. Results After surgery, the V̇O2peak decreased from 23.9±5.8 to 19.2±5.5 mL/kg/min (−19.6±15.7%) (p<0.001). The breathing reserve increased by 5% (p=0.001); the oxygen saturation remained unchanged (p=0.30); the oxygen pulse decreased by −1.9 mL/beat (p<0.001); the haemoglobin concentration decreased by 0.7 g/dL (p=0.001). The oxygen pulse was the strongest predictor for change in V̇O2peak; adjusted linear squared: r2=0.77. Six months after surgery, the V̇O2peak remained unchanged (−3±15%, p=0.27). The ppo V̇O2peak (mL/kg/min) was 18.6±5.4, and the actually measured V̇O2peak was 19.2±5.5 (p=0.24). However, the limits of agreement were large (CI −7.4 to 8.2). The segment method miscalculated the ppo V̇O2peak by more than ±10 and ±20% in 54% and 25% of the patients, respectively. Conclusions The reduction in V̇O2peak and lack of improvement 6 months after lung cancer surgery cannot be explained by the loss of functional lung tissue. Predicting postoperative V̇O2peak based on the amount of lung tissue removed is not recommendable due to poor precision. Trial registration number NCT01748981.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There has been a recent increase in the research available to guide physiotherapy management of patients who require surgical resection for lung cancer. It is unclear whether this evidence has influenced clinical practice. AIM To describe physiotherapy practice patterns in the preoperative and postoperative management of patients who undergo surgical resection for lung cancer. METHODS Physiotherapists involved in the management of patients who require surgical resection for lung cancer at hospitals across Australia and New Zealand were mailed a purpose-designed questionnaire. RESULTS The response rate was 91% (43/47). Prior to surgery, 40% (n = 17) of the respondents indicated that patients were not assessed by a physiotherapist. In most hospitals (n = 39; 91%), patients did not participate in supervised exercise training before surgery. Most commonly, physiotherapy was commenced on the day following surgery (n = 39; 91%), with walking-based exercise being the treatment that was most frequently implemented in all patients (n = 40; 93%). Seventy-two per cent of respondents referred less than 25% of patients to pulmonary rehabilitation on discharge from hospital. Physiotherapy assessment and treatment choices were influenced predominantly by established practice in the hospital and personal experience rather than research findings. CONCLUSION In people who undergo surgical resection for lung cancer, physiotherapy services focused on reducing or preventing postoperative pulmonary complications. Despite recent data suggesting that exercise training is beneficial in this population, our data indicate that referral to pulmonary rehabilitation was uncommon.

Abstract
Physical activity is becoming increasingly acknowledged as an integral component of in the multidisciplinary management of cancer patients. Intensive inquiry in this area is likely to increase further over the next decade; however, cancer-specific, evidence-based risk assessment and recommendations for physical activity are not available. A systematic literature review was performed of all studies conducting an exercise training intervention and (or) any form of objective exercise test among adults diagnosed with cancer. Studies were assessed according to evaluation criteria developed by a panel of experts. A total of 118 studies involving 5529 patients were deemed eligible. Overall, the results suggest that exercise training and maximal and submaximal exercise testing are relatively safe procedures with a total nonlife-threatening adverse event rate of <2%. There was only 1 exercise training-related death. However, the quality of exercise testing methodology and data reporting is less than optimal. Thus, whether the low incidence of events reflects the true safety of exercise training and exercise testing in cancer patients or less than optimal methodology and (or) data reporting remains to be determined. Evidence-based absolute and relative contraindications to physical activity and exercise training and testing are provided as well as probing decision-trees to optimize the adoption and safety of physical activity in persons diagnosed with cancer.

Abstract
Oxidative stress appears to play an essential role as a secondary messenger in the normal regulation of a variety of physiological processes, such as apoptosis, survival, and proliferative signaling pathways. Oxidative stress also plays important roles in the pathogenesis of many diseases, including aging, degenerative disease, and cancer. Among cancers, lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer in the Western world. Lung cancer is the commonest fatal cancer whose risk is dependent on the number of cigarettes smoked per day as well as the number of years smoking, some components of cigarette smoke inducing oxidative stress by transmitting or generating oxidative stress. It can be subdivided into two broad categories, small cell lung cancer and non-small-cell lung cancer, the latter is the most common type. Distinct measures of primary and secondary prevention have been investigated to reduce the risk of morbidity and mortality caused by lung cancer. Among them, it seems that physical activity and nutrition have some beneficial effects. However, physical activity can have different influences on carcinogenesis, depending on energy supply, strength and frequency of exercise loads as well as the degree of exercise-mediated oxidative stress. Micronutrient supplementation seems to have a positive impact in lung surgery, particularly as an antioxidant, even if the role of micronutrients in lung cancer remains controversial. The purpose of this review is to examine lung cancer in relation to oxidative stress, physical activity, and nutrition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Decreased exercise capacity and impairments in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) are common in people following lung resection for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Exercise training has been demonstrated to confer gains in exercise capacity and HRQoL for people with a range of chronic conditions, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and heart failure, as well as in people with cancers such as prostate and breast cancer. A programme of exercise training for people following lung resection for NSCLC may confer important gains in these outcomes. To date, evidence of its efficacy in this population is unclear. OBJECTIVES The primary aim of this study was to determine the effects of exercise training on exercise capacity in people following lung resection(with or without chemotherapy) for NSCLC. The secondary aims were to determine the effects on other outcomes such as HRQoL,lung function (forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1)), peripheral muscle force, dyspnoea and fatigue as well as feelings of anxiety and depression. SEARCH METHODS We searched the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) (The Cochrane Library 2013, Issue 2 of 12), MEDLINE(via PubMed) (1966 to February 2013), EMBASE (via Ovid) (1974 to February 2013), SciELO (The Scientific Electronic Library Online) (1978 to February 2013) as well as PEDro (Physiotherapy Evidence Database) (1980 to February 2013). SELECTION CRITERIA We included randomised controlled trials (RCTs) in which study participants withNSCLC, who had recently undergone lung resection,were allocated to receive either exercise training or no exercise training. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two review authors screened the studies and identified those for inclusion. Meta-analyses were performed using post-intervention datafor those studies in which no differences were reported between the exercise and control group either: (i) prior to lung resection, or(ii) following lung resection but prior to the commencement of the intervention period. Although two studies reported measures of quadriceps force on completion of the intervention period, meta-analysis was not performed on this outcome as one of the two studies demonstrated significant differences between the exercise and control group at baseline (following lung resection). MAIN RESULTS We identified three RCTs involving 178 participants. Three out of the seven domains included in the Cochrane Collaboration' s 'seven evidence-based domains' table were identical in their assessment across the three studies (random sequence generation, allocation concealment and blinding of participants and personnel). The domain which had the greatest variation was 'blinding of outcome assessment' where one study was rated at low risk of bias, one at unclear risk of bias and the remaining one at high risk of bias. On completion of the intervention period, exercise capacity as measured by the six-minute walk distance was statistically greater in the intervention group compared to the control group (mean difference (MD) 50.4 m; 95% confidence interval (CI) 15.4 to 85.2 m). No between-group differences were observed in HRQoL (standardised mean difference (SMD) 0.17; 95% CI -0.16 to 0.49) or FEV1 (MD-0.13 L; 95% CI -0.36 to 0.11 L). Differences in quadriceps force were not demonstrated on completion of the intervention period. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS The evidence summarised in our review suggests that exercise training may potentially increase the exercise capacity of people following lung resection for NSCLC. The findings of our systematic review should be interpreted with caution due to disparities between the studies, methodological limitations, some significant risks of bias and small sample sizes. This systematic review emphasises the need for larger RCTs..

Abstract
Surgery is the treatment of choice for early stage non-small cell lung cancer. In this context, postoperative follow-up is important to diagnose late postoperative complications, as well as to detect recurring cancer or new primaries as early as possible. There is, however, no high-quality evidence regarding the benefits of monitoring programs on survival and quality of life. Most studies recommend clinical and radiological follow-up (radiograph or chest computed tomography) performed more intensively during the first two years and annually thereafter. The physician doing the follow-up can be the thoracic surgeon, the diagnosing physician, or the family physician.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The standard treatment of stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is lobectomy with systematic mediastinal lymph node evaluation. Unfortunately, up to 25% of patients with stage I NSCLC are not candidates for lobectomy because of severe medical comorbidity. METHODS A panel of experts was convened through the Thoracic Oncology Network of the American College of Chest Physicians and the Workforce on Evidence-Based Surgery of the Society of Thoracic Surgeons. Following a literature review, the panel developed 13 suggestions for evaluation and treatment through iterative discussion and debate until unanimous agreement was achieved. RESULTS Pretreatment evaluation should focus primarily on measures of cardiopulmonary physiology, as respiratory failure represents the greatest interventional risk. Alternative treatment options to lobectomy for high-risk patients include sublobar resection with or without brachytherapy, stereotactic body radiation therapy, and radiofrequency ablation. Each is associated with decreased procedural morbidity and mortality but increased risk for involved lobe and regional recurrence compared with lobectomy, but direct comparisons between modalities are lacking. CONCLUSIONS Therapeutic options for the treatment of high-risk patients are evolving quickly. Improved radiographic staging and the diagnosis of smaller and more indolent tumors push the risk-benefit decision toward parenchymal-sparing or nonoperative therapies in high-risk patients. Unbiased assessment of treatment options requires uniform reporting of treatment populations and outcomes in clinical series, which has been lacking to date.

Abstract
This article reviews an evidence-based approach to the physiologic evaluation of patients under consideration for surgical resection of lung cancer. Adequate physiologic evaluation often includes a multidisciplinary evaluation, with complete identification of risk factors for perioperative complications and long-term disability including cardiovascular risk, assessment of pulmonary function, and smoking cessation counseling. Consideration of tumor-related anatomic obstruction, atelectasis, or vascular occlusion may alter measurements. Careful preoperative physiologic assessment helps to identify patients at increased risk of morbidity and mortality after lung resection. These evaluations are helpful in identifying patients who may not benefit from surgical management of their lung cancer.
