BMC Palliat Care. 2022 May 18;21(1):81. doi: 10.1186/s12904-022-00972-x.ABSTRACTOBJECTIVE: Inflammation and malnutrition are common in patients with advanced lung cancer undergoing palliative care, and their survival time is limited. In this study, we created a prognostic model using the Inflam-Nutri score to predict the survival of these patients.METHODS: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 223 patients with advanced, histologically confirmed unresectable lung cancer treated between January 2017 and December 2018. The cutoff values of the neutrophil-albumin ratio (NAR) and Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA) score were determined by the X-tile program. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression…

G Ital Cardiol (Rome). 2022 May;23(5):340-378. doi: 10.1714/3796.37817.ABSTRACTHeart failure is a complex clinical syndrome with a severe prognosis, despite therapeutic progress. The management of the advanced stages of the syndrome is particularly complex in patients who are referred to palliative care as well as in those who are candidates for cardiac replacement therapy. For the latter group, a prompt recognition of the transition to the advanced stage as well as an early referral to the centers for cardiac replacement therapy are essential elements to ensure that patients follow the most appropriate diagnostic-therapeutic pathway. The aim of this document is to…
