The Significance of Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) Score as a Novel Prognostic Parameter in Small Cell Lung Cancer.

abstract：:In recent years the alveolar macrophage has been found to play a central role in interstitial lung disease. Pulmonary histiocytosis X is characterized by infiltrating fibroblasts, mononuclear cells, and CD-1-positive Langerhans cells. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid displays an increase of CD-1-positive cells and a...
