People with severe mental illness die 10-20 years earlier than the general population, mostly from preventable physical diseases. Fragmented care, under-screening and undertreatment of cardiovascular, respiratory, infectious and cancer conditions widen this gap. Embedding physical screening, proactive treatment, smoking cessation, cancer checks and multidisciplinary, person-centred care into psychiatric services could close this mortality divide.

Background: In Belgium, age-standardised hospital admission and mortality rates for asthma and COPD are higher than the European average. Understanding the factors that lead to a hospitalised exacerbation and/or mortality is needed to optimise patient management.
Methods: Patients ≥18 years old obtaining two claims for drugs for obstructive airway diseases (ATC code R03) in 1 year between 2017 and 2022 were identified in Belgian nationwide claims-based data.

Background: Seasonal variation in mortality results from a combination of environmental, biological, and social factors, with ambient temperature recognized as a key contributor. However, comprehensive assessments disentangling temperature effects from other seasonal influences across a broad range of mortality causes remain limited. This study aimed to quantify and compare the mortality burden attributable to ambient temperature and broader seasonal variation across major causes of death in Spain.

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a heterogeneous lung disease characterized by persistent airflow limitation and is a leading cause of mortality worldwide. Pre-COPD refers to a pre-disease state associated with an increased risk of COPD development. This study aims to evaluate the clinical characteristics of individuals with COPD, pre-COPD, and smokers with normal lung function in South Korea, and to provide an updated analysis of the KOCOSS cohort data.

Introduction: Recent advances in cancer management may have transformed the overall prognosis of patients undergoing lung cancer resection. This study aimed to assess the changes in the long-term survival of patients undergoing surgery for lung cancer over the last 2 decades and to identify the risk factors modulating the postoperative prognosis.
Methods: This single-center retrospective study included nonsmall cell lung cancer patients who underwent lung resection between 2008 and 2020.
