Prenatal Exposure to Ultrafine Particles Tied to Child Asthma
Prenatal ultrafine particle (UFP; <0.1 µm) exposure is associated with asthma development in children.
Delaying Surgery Linked to Worse Outcomes for NSCLC
For patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), delaying surgical procedures for more than 12 weeks is associated with an increased risk for recurrence and worse survival.
Inflammatory Markers Correlate With Troponin Levels in Hospitalized Patients With COVID-19
