Abstract:Conclusion: Differences in the metabolomics profiles were apparent and demonstrated the preliminary feasibility of distinguishing early stage NSCLC cases from controls and adenocarcinomas from squamous cell carcinomas using metabolomics techniques. Validation of this methodology on a larger, prospectively accrued, cohort is planned in order to optimize model fit and to assess the diagnostic and NSCLC subtype discriminatory performance in the clinical setting.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
