- Abstract
Building upon prior work developing and pilot testing a provider-focused Empathic Communication Skills (ECS) training intervention, this study sought feedback from key invested partners who work with individuals with lung cancer (i.e. stakeholders including scientific and clinical advisors and patient advocates) on the ECS training intervention. The findings will be used to launch a national virtually-delivered multi-center clinical trial that will examine the effectiveness and implementation of the evidence-based ECS training intervention to reduce patients' experience of lung cancer stigma. A 1-day, hybrid, key invested partners meeting was held in New York City in Fall 2021. We presented the ECS training intervention to all conference attendees (N = 25) to seek constructive feedback on modifications of the training content and platform for intervention delivery to maximize its impact. After participating in the immersive training, all participants engaged in a group discussion guided by semi-structured probes. A deductive thematic content analysis was conducted to code focus group responses into 12 distinct a priori content modification recommendations. Content refinement was suggested in 8 of the 12 content modification themes: tailoring/tweaking/refining, adding elements, removing elements, shortening/condensing content, lengthening/extending content, substituting elements, re-ordering elements, and repeating elements. Engagement and feedback from key invested multi-sector partner is a valuable resource for intervention content modifications. Using a structured format for refining evidence-based interventions can facilitate efforts to understand the nature of modifications required for scaling up interventions and the impact of these modifications on outcomes of interest.

Advances in biomarker‐driven therapies for patients with nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) both provide opportunities to improve the treatment (and thus outcomes) for patients and pose new challenges for equitable care delivery. Over the last decade, the continuing development of new biomarker‐driven therapies and evolving indications for their use have intensified the importance of interdisciplinary communication and coordination for patients with or suspected to have lung cancer. Multidisciplinary teams are challenged with completing comprehensive and timely biomarker testing and navigating the constantly evolving evidence base for a complex and time‐sensitive disease. This guide provides context for the current state of comprehensive biomarker testing for NSCLC, reviews how biomarker testing integrates within the diagnostic continuum for patients, and illustrates best practices and common pitfalls that influence the success and timeliness of biomarker testing using a series of case scenarios.

Background: Lung cancer screening (LCS) with low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) was recommended by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) in 2013, making approximately 8 million Americans eligible for screening. The demographic characteristics and adherence of persons screened in the United States have not been reported at the population level.Objective: To define sociodemographic characteristics and adherence among persons screened and entered into the American College of Radiology's Lung Cancer Screening Registry (LCSR).Design: Cohort study.Setting: United States, 2015 to 2019.Participants: Persons receiving a baseline LDCT for LCS from 3625 facilities reporting to the LCSR.Measurements: Age, sex, and smoking status distributions (percentages) were computed among persons who were screened and among respondents in the 2015 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) who were eligible for screening. The prevalence between the LCSR and the NHIS was compared with prevalence ratios (PRs) and 95% CIs. Adherence to annual screening was defined as having a follow-up test within 11 to 15 months of an initial LDCT.Results: Among 1 159 092 persons who were screened, 90.8% (n = 1 052 591) met the USPSTF eligibility criteria. Compared with adults from the NHIS who met the criteria (n = 1257), screening recipients in the LCSR were older (34.7% vs. 44.8% were aged 65 to 74 years; PR, 1.29 [95% CI, 1.20 to 1.39]), more likely to be female (41.8% vs. 48.1%; PR, 1.15 [CI, 1.08 to 1.23]), and more likely to currently smoke (52.3% vs. 61.4%; PR, 1.17 [CI, 1.11 to 1.23]). Only 22.3% had a repeated annual LDCT. If follow-up was extended to 24 months and more than 24 months, 34.3% and 40.3% were adherent, respectively.Limitations: Underreporting of LCS and missing data may skew demographic characteristics of persons reported to be screened. Underreporting of adherence may result in underestimates of follow-up.Conclusion: Approximately 91% of persons who had LCS met USPSTF eligibility criteria. In addition to continuing to target all eligible adults, men, those who formerly smoked, and younger eligible patients may be less likely to be screened. Adherence to annual follow-up screening was poor, potentially limiting screening effectiveness.Primary Funding Source: None. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

METEOROLOGICAL services ,RAINFALL ,EMERGENCY management ,STORMS ,LANDFALL - Abstract
Hurricane Milton caused significant damage in Florida, resulting in at least 10 deaths, widespread power outages, and destruction of homes and crops. However, the storm surge was not as high as initially predicted, and much of the worst damage was caused by wind rather than water. Milton also triggered a severe tornado outbreak on the eastern side of the state. The full extent of the damages is still being assessed, and the death toll may rise as search-and-rescue efforts continue. The estimated losses from the hurricane range from $60 billion to $180 billion. President Joe Biden has promised swift action and urged Congress to provide resources for recovery efforts. Some businesses, such as Comcast's Orlando theme parks, are planning to reopen soon. Ports in Florida remain closed, and there are concerns about damaged crops and residual flooding, including sewage contamination. Homeowners are assessing damage and helping their neighbors.

Hurricane Milton has caused significant damage in Florida, resulting in at least 10 deaths, widespread power outages, and destruction of homes and crops. The storm's 120 mph winds caused more damage than the storm surge, with a crane being tossed into a building and the roof of a sports stadium being shredded. Milton also triggered a severe tornado outbreak on the eastern side of the state. The full extent of the damage is still being assessed, but losses are estimated to be in the billions of dollars. President Joe Biden has promised swift action and urged Congress to provide resources for recovery efforts. Some businesses, such as Comcast's Orlando theme parks and Walt Disney Co.'s World Resort, are preparing to reopen. Ports in Florida remain closed, and there are concerns about damaged crops and residual flooding, including sewage contamination. Homeowners are assessing damage and helping their neighbors.

STORMS ,LANDFALL ,STORM surges ,HURRICANES ,RESEARCH personnel - Abstract
Hurricane Milton, a powerful storm approaching the Florida coast, has posed challenges for forecasters due to the difficulty in categorizing the storm surge that is expected to cause flooding in coastal areas. Storm surge, which is responsible for 11% of hurricane-related deaths, was previously included in the Saffir-Simpson scale used to describe hurricane winds but was removed in 2009. Instead, forecasters now use color-coded maps and targeted warnings to inform specific communities about the amount of water they can expect from storms, resulting in more precise evacuation orders. However, this new system has also made it more complex for people to assess their risk and has required time to educate and build trust in the new techniques. Hurricane Milton is expected to bring significant damage from its surge and heavy rains rather than its winds. [Extracted from the article]

Hurricane Milton has challenged scientists' ability to predict rapid intensification in storms. The storm rapidly strengthened, becoming one of the most powerful hurricanes on record in the Atlantic basin. This phenomenon, known as rapid intensification, is becoming more common due to climate change and the supercharging of ocean heat. While models have improved in predicting storm intensity, events like Hurricane Milton highlight the limitations of current models and the need for further research and data collection. The storm's sudden escalation has raised questions about the shifting probability of extreme rapid intensification. [Extracted from the article]

Hurricane Milton is predicted to hit the Tampa Bay region in Florida, potentially causing significant damage. The area is home to over 3 million people, a major US military base, Florida's largest port, and popular tourist attractions. The storm is a Category 4 hurricane with maximum sustained winds of 145 miles per hour. Residents and businesses were still recovering from the previous hurricane, Helene, which caused heavy erosion and flooding. The Tampa Bay area is particularly vulnerable to storm surge due to its location on a shallow continental shelf. The surge from Milton is forecasted to be higher than the last direct strike on the region in 1921. Mandatory evacuations have been ordered in vulnerable areas, and residents are urged to take precautions. Large employers are encouraging employees to work from home, and the University of South Florida is providing shelter for those in need. Some residents may choose to stay due to health conditions, financial constraints, or personal connections. [Extracted from the article]

Florida is preparing for another round of heavy rainfall and strong winds from a tropical system following Hurricane Helene. The potential storm could bring up to a foot of rain to the southern half of the state, with Tampa expected to receive four to eight inches of rainfall. This could complicate cleanup efforts as thousands of homes and businesses are still without power. While there is a chance the system could develop into a hurricane, wind shear and dry air over the ocean are likely to limit its strength. Additionally, forecasters are monitoring two other storms in the Atlantic: Hurricane Kirk and potential Hurricane Leslie. [Extracted from the article]

Hurricane Helene caused widespread devastation and resulted in the deaths of over 100 people across six states in the US South. The storm, which made landfall in Florida, caused catastrophic flooding in Appalachia due to its large size and the significant amount of moisture it absorbed over open water. The sweltering ocean temperatures driven by climate change allowed Helene to pull in more water vapor, leading to torrential rainfall. The storm's width, larger than 90% of hurricanes in the region over the past two decades, meant that it affected cities and towns far from the coast. This event highlights the increased risks posed by extreme weather due to a hotter planet and challenges assumptions about storm preparedness. [Extracted from the article]

The US South is facing the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, which has caused widespread damage, flooding, and power outages. The storm has killed at least 84 people and is estimated to have caused between $95 billion and $110 billion in damages. Floodwaters are still a concern, particularly in Georgia and South Carolina, where towns have been devastated and fresh water supplies have been cut off. The storm has been declared the most destructive in the history of Georgia Power and a public health emergency has been declared in North Carolina. President Joe Biden has approved disaster declarations in several states and search and rescue teams have been deployed. The Congaree River in Columbia is expected to reach major flood stage, and tornado warnings have been issued in southern Virginia. The storm has also reignited a large fire at a plant in Georgia and has affected the operation of ports along the Gulf. The National Hurricane Center is monitoring a patch of thunderstorms in the western Caribbean that has a 50% chance of developing into a tropical depression or storm. [Extracted from the article]

Hurricane Helene caused significant damage and flooding across parts of the Southeast US before making landfall in Florida. The storm's rains began days before landfall, resulting in historic rainfall in the Carolinas and southern Appalachian Mountains. Asheville, North Carolina experienced record-breaking rainfall, and the region is at risk of power outages and downed trees due to the saturated ground. The heavy rains have also led to dam failures, local flooding, and extensive power outages in Georgia, the Carolinas, and the southern Appalachians. The storm is expected to move westward towards the Ohio Valley and parts of the lower Mississippi Valley, with additional flood warnings issued for Nashville and middle Tennessee. Scientists attribute the extreme rainfall to climate change. [Extracted from the article]

Hurricane Helene has intensified to a Category 4 hurricane and is approaching Florida's west coast. The storm is expected to make landfall near St. Marks, Florida, and has the potential to cause significant damage, including power outages, infrastructure damage, and destruction of trees and power lines. Storm surge warnings are in effect along Florida's west coast, with the Tampa Bay area at risk of up to 8 feet of water. The hurricane's impact is also expected to bring severe rains, flash flooding, and landslides to the Appalachian Mountains and the Ohio Valley. President Joe Biden has approved emergency disaster declarations for several states. The storm's size and fast forward speed make it resilient and likely to weaken slowly. Record or historic flooding is expected across the Appalachians, and the storm may generate tornadoes far inland. The total damage and losses from the hurricane could exceed $20 billion, and it may impact the operations of companies such as Mosaic Co. and US cotton production. Mandatory and voluntary evacuations are underway in multiple counties, and several states have declared emergencies. [Extracted from the article]

Hurricane intensity remains a mystery for forecasters due to limited data and gaps in research. While predictions about where hurricanes will strike have become more accurate, forecasting their intensity has lagged behind. The lack of understanding about the processes occurring within hurricanes makes it difficult to simulate their behavior in computer models. Errors in wind-speed forecasts can have deadly consequences, especially as climate change leads to stronger and faster cyclones. However, scientists are making progress in reducing errors through improved modeling techniques and data collection. In the meantime, meteorologists advise caution and preparation for storms that may be more intense than predicted. [Extracted from the article]

Brightband, a startup founded by a former Google executive, is using artificial intelligence (AI) to improve weather forecasting. The company has raised $10 million in funding and aims to develop a paid product and an open-source AI forecasting model trained on raw weather observations. Brightband will initially focus on predicting extreme weather events, such as heat waves and tropical cyclones, several days in advance. Unlike other models, Brightband will rely solely on historical weather observations, rather than physics-based modeling, to produce medium-range forecasts. The startup plans to gather data from government agencies, private satellite firms, and eventually, weather stations placed on users' homes and businesses. [Extracted from the article]

Severe rainfall has caused chaotic floods across central Europe, Africa, Shanghai, and the US Carolinas, highlighting the impact of climate change on weather patterns. Climate scientists attribute the heavy rainfall to global warming, which allows hotter air to carry more moisture and cause intense precipitation. The effects of climate change are not evenly distributed, with Africa experiencing the highest death toll and displacement, while Europe has been better prepared and has pledged significant funding for recovery. The jet stream, influenced by global warming, has caused the heavy rains in Europe, while distinct circumstances in Africa and the Pacific have also contributed to the extreme weather events. These events are occurring sooner than predicted by climate models, indicating the urgency of addressing climate change. [Extracted from the article]

Hurricane Francine is expected to make landfall in Louisiana, bringing dangerous storm surge, flooding, and hurricane-force winds. Offshore oil platforms have been closed, but major natural gas export plants are likely to be unaffected. The storm is forecasted to cause heavy rains, flash flooding, and storm surge of up to 10 feet in some coastal areas. While earlier predictions suggested it would be a Category 2 hurricane, it is now expected to be a Category 1 hurricane, causing an estimated $2.7 billion in damage and losses. The storm is not expected to impact liquefied natural gas facilities near the Texas-Louisiana border. Oil production in the Gulf of Mexico has been significantly affected, with nearly a quarter of current crude production shut down. Refineries and ports in the region are also taking precautions. The hurricane is expected to bring much-needed water to the Mississippi River, but it may delay field work and reduce grain quality.

Tropical Storm Francine is expected to become a hurricane before hitting Louisiana on Wednesday. The storm is predicted to graze Morgan City and Baton Rouge, with potential impacts reaching as far as New Orleans. While some offshore oil platforms have been closed, major gas export plants are likely to be unaffected. The storm may cause coastal flooding and flash flooding in southeastern Louisiana, with a storm surge of up to 10 feet. Although earlier forecasts predicted Francine to be a Category 2 hurricane, it is now expected to be a Category 1 storm with top winds of 90 mph. The storm is estimated to cause $2.7 billion in damage and losses, but this could decrease if it weakens before landfall. Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry has declared a state of emergency, and Chevron, Exxon Mobil, and Shell are among the companies taking precautions by evacuating workers and suspending drilling activities. The storm is also expected to impact Gulf Coast refineries. The US Coast Guard has issued warnings for rough weather in Texas ports, and emergency evacuations have begun in Louisiana's Port Fourchon. While the storm will bring much-needed water to the Mississippi River, it will also make field work harder and delay harvests. The National Hurricane Center is monitoring two other disturbances in the central Atlantic Ocean. [Extracted from the article]
