Abstract excerpt
<h4>Rationale</h4> Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death globally, and rising incidence among traditionally low-risk individuals intensifies the need for improved early-detection methods that the lower-airway microbiome may inform. <h4>Objectives</h4> To evaluate how respiratory tract sampling method shapes inferred microbiome structure, and whether bronchial brushing recovers a microbial comm...
