What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. cognitive impairment

    It will be the presence of cognitive impairment through the administration of a comprehensive neuropsychological assessment.Patient will complete cognitive evaluation which includes:the Montreal Cognitive Assessment and the Mini-Mental State Examination to assess global cognitive functioning;the Frontal Assessment Battery,the Stroop test color and word test ,and the Verbal Fluency Test for the evaluation of executive function;the Ray Auditory Verbal Learning Test for learning and memory;the forward and backward Digit Span and the Corsi Block-tapping Test for working memory;and the Trail Making Test A \& B and the Symbol Digit Modalities Test for attention. Classification will be obtained adopting the criteria proposed by the International Cognition and Cancer Task Force,a test score of 2 SDs or more below the test-specific reference cohort on at least 1 test of a cognitive domain.All test scores were transformed into z-scores to allow the comparison between different measures.

    Measured: From baseline to 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Risk factors on the cognitive profile of lung cancer patients

    This study will assess the influence of different risk factors on the cognitive profile of lung cancer patients. It will examine the role of psychological symptoms through different self-reported questionnaire: the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - cognition will be administered to assess perceived cognitive impairment, the Beck Depression Inventory II to measure the presence of depressive symptoms, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory to investigate both state anxiety and trait anxiety, the EORTC-Quality of Life of cancer patient to assess the quality of life and, finally, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index to evaluate sleep quality and disturbances sleep patterns. Finally, the Cognitive Reserve Index questionnaire will be administered to obtain the cognitive reserve level of each patient, and the smoking information obtained through an interview.All the questionnaire scores were transformed into z-scores to allow the comparison between different measures.

    Measured: From baseline to 12 months
