Objective. This study was to compare the effects of symptomatic treatment and high flow nasal cannula (HFNC) treatment on patients with advanced lung cancer complicated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and to explore the clinical application effect of HFNC treatment in such patients. Methods. 80 patients with advanced lung cancer and COPD admitted to the hospital were selected as the research objects. They were randomly divided into a control group (n = 40) and an observation group (n = 40). The computed tomography (CT) image data of all patients were classified. The neural network was trained to obtain the network weights. Based on surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, patients in the control group received anti-inflammatory, phlegm, and other symptomatic treatments, while patients in the observation group received HFNC treatment on this basis. The blood gas analysis results, clinical symptoms (cough, wheezing, rales, etc.), inflammatory factors (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), plateletcrit (PCT), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interleukin-6 (IL-6)), and quality of life of the two groups were compared and analyzed. Results. When the model MSE was the smallest, the corresponding hidden layer neuron node value was 49, so 49 was set as the optimal number of hidden layer neuron nodes. CT images were imported into the constructed model system, and the model diagnosis system could still diagnose and classify under the premise that the pathological characteristics were not obvious. There was no significant difference in clinical data between the two groups of patients before treatment ( P > 0.05 ). After treatment, the clinical symptoms, arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), hs-CRP, PCT, TNF-α, and IL-6 levels were greatly reduced; those of patients in the observation group were much better in contrast to those of the control group ( P < 0.05 ). The total effective rate in the observation group was 97.5%, and the effective rate in the control group was 87.5%. After treatment, the functional assessment of cancer therapy-lung (FACT-L) score was obviously higher than that before treatment ( P < 0.05 ). After treatment, the quality of life in the observation group was increased by 45.69% compared with that before treatment, and the quality of life in the control group was increased by 35.77%. Conclusion. HFNC therapy can improve the lung function of patients with advanced lung cancer and COPD, alleviate the development of the disease, and improve the quality of life of patients.

OBJECTIVE: Mood disorders are a frequent problem in old age, and their symptoms constitute an important public health issue. These alterations affect the quality of life mainly by restricting social life. The participation in a regular exercise program is an effective way of reducing or preventing the functional decline associated with aging. The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of fitness-endurance activity (at the intensity of Ventilatory Threshold 1 (VT-1)) in depression, anxiety and quality of life scores in seniors. METHODS: The study involved 46 sedentary seniors aged 60-75 (66.97 ± 4.80) who were randomly allocated to two groups: 1) Control group, which was neither asked to vary their everyday activities nor to join a regular physical fitness program; and 2) Experimental group, whose members took part in an aerobic fitness program consisting of ergometer cycle sessions 3 times a week on alternate days for six months working at a heart rate corresponding to ventilatory threshold (VT-1) intensity. Subjects were submitted to a basal evaluation using the geriatric depression screening scale - GDS, STAI trait/state (anxiety scale) and SF-36 (quality of life scale). RESULTS: Comparing the groups after the study period, we found a significant decrease in depressive and anxiety scores and an improvement in the quality of life in the experimental group, but no significant changes in the control group. CONCLUSION: The data suggest that an aerobic exercise program at VT-1 intensity suffices to promote favorable modifications in depressive and anxiety scores to improve the quality of life in seniors.
