The composition of lung microbiome in lung cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Abstract Background Although recent studies have indicated that imbalance in the respiratory microbiome composition is linked to several chronic respiratory diseases, the association between the lung microbiome and lung cancer has not been extensively studied. Conflicting reports of individual studi...
