Smoking causes several diseases, including lung cancer, COPD, coronary heart disease, stroke and peripheral vascular disease. Most of the adverse effects of smoking are reversible and smoking cessation treatments are a cost-effective and high-impact intervention for reducing the risk of mortality and morbidity from smoking-related illness. Smoking cessation may have a significant impact in patients diagnosed with lung cancer, as continued tobacco use can critically compromise treatment efficacy, increase the risk of recurrence and reduce overall survival. Moreover, the benefits of smoking cessation in lung cancer patients can also improve quality of life. The tremendous health and economic consequences of the smoking epidemic should make tobacco control a top priority for governments worldwide. This review aims to highlight the necessity of incorporating smoking cessation as a standard component of lung cancer treatment protocols to enhance patients' clinical outcomes and quality of life.

This study aimed to systematically evaluate the link between air pollution and these diseases (allergic rhinitis, asthma and chronic sinusitis (with/without nasal polyps)) to provide evidence for reducing their prevalence. A systematic search of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and Scopus was conducted to find studies published up to 1 September 2024, regarding association between air pollution and allergic upper respiratory diseases. Meta-analyses calculated odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals for the outcomes. Sensitivity and subgroup analyses were performed to explore heterogeneity, and publication bias was assessed using Egger and Begg tests with funnel plots. We included 64 studies with 12 440 647 participants. The prevalence of allergic rhinitis, asthma and chronic sinusitis due to air pollution was 16%, 11% and 12%, respectively. Allergic rhinitis was linked to nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) (OR 1.083), particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter <10 µm (PM₁₀) (OR 1.026) and <2.5 µm (PM_2.5) (OR 1.104), sulfur dioxide (SO₂) (OR 1.116), ozone (OR 1.058) and carbon monoxide (CO) (OR 1.070). Asthma was associated with NO₂ (OR 1.146), PM_2.5 (OR 1.087), PM₁₀ (OR 1.037), polluted air (OR 1.038), ozone (OR 1.032), SO₂ (OR 1.090) and CO (OR 1.184).

The potential value of MBW as a monitoring tool for patients with PCD is not well known. This systematic review summarises all articles published by the end of 2022 reporting MBW data in patients with PCD and compares MBW parameters to spirometry and chest imaging findings. We searched PubMed, Embase and Scopus for original studies with MBW measurements in patients with PCD. 14 studies were included in the analysis with a total number of 398 patients. The mean/median LCI ranged from 7.98 to 11.8, whereas mean/median forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV₁) z-score ranged from -1.98 to -0.5. The LCI was abnormally increased in all studies, whereas only two studies had abnormally decreased FEV₁ The LCI also had a stronger correlation with chest computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging results, compared to FEV₁ In conclusion, this review shows that the LCI is abnormally high in PCD from the preschool age up to adulthood.
