[PMID: 38827800 PMCID: PMC11140661 DOI: 10.2144/fsoa-2023-0103] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 06/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Aim: This population-based analysis aimed to explore the associations among marital status, prognosis and treatment of stage I non-small-cell lung cancer. Materials & methods: The propensity score matching (PSM), logistic regression and Cox proportional hazards model were used in this study. Results: A total of 13,937 patients were included. After PSM, 10579 patients were co-insured. The married were more likely to receive surgical treatment compared with the unmarried patients (OR: 1.841, p < 0.001), and patients who underwent surgery also tended to have better survival (HR: 0.293, p < 0.001). Conclusion: Compared with unmarried patients, a married group with stage I NSCLC had timely treatment and more satisfactory survival. This study highlights the importance of prompt help and care for unmarried patients.

Protective effect of height on long-term survival of resectable lung cancer: a new feature of the lung cancer paradox. Thorax 2024; 79:316-324. [PMID: 38359923 DOI: 10.1136/thorax-2023-220443] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2023] [Accepted: 01/16/2024] [Indexed: 02/17/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Unlike most malignancies, higher body mass index (BMI) is associated with a reduced risk of lung cancer and improved prognosis after surgery. However, it remains controversial whether height, one of determinants of BMI, is associated with survival independently of BMI and other confounders. METHODS We extracted data on all consecutive patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer included in Epithor, the French Society of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery database, over a 16-year period. Height was analysed as a continuous variable, and then categorised into four or three categories, according to sex-specific quantiles. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to estimate the association of height with survival, adjusted for age, tobacco consumption, forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), WHO performance status (WHO PS), American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, extent of resection, histological type, stage of disease and centre as a random effect, as well as BMI in a further analysis. RESULTS The study included 61 379 patients. Higher height was significantly associated with better long-term survival after adjustment for other variables (adjusted HR 0.97 per 10 cm higher height, 95% CI 0.95 to 0.99); additional adjustment for BMI resulted in an identical HR. The prognostic impact of height was further confirmed by stratifying by age, ASA class, WHO PS and histological type. When stratifying by BMI class, there was no evidence of a differential association (p=0.93). When stratifying by stage of disease, the prognostic significance of height was maintained for all stages except IIIB-IV. CONCLUSIONS Our study shows that height is an independent prognostic factor of resectable lung cancer.

Abstract
With the increasing implementation of early lung cancer screening and the increasing emphasis on physical examinations, the early-stage lung cancer detection rate continues to rise. Visceral pleural invasion (VPI), which denotes the tumor's breach of the elastic layer or reaching the surface of the visceral pleura, stands as a pivotal factor that impacts the prognosis of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and directly influences the pathological staging of early-stage cases. According to the latest 9th edition of the TNM staging system for NSCLC, even when the tumor diameter is less than 3 cm, the final T stage remains T2a if VPI is present. There is considerable controversy within the guidelines regarding treatment options for stage IB NSCLC, especially among patients exhibiting VPI. Moreover, the precise determination of VPI is important in guiding treatment selection and prognostic evaluation in individuals with NSCLC. This article aims to provide a comprehensive review of the current status and advancements in studies pertaining to stage IB NSCLC accompanied by VPI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate predictive visceral pleural invasion (VPI) occurrence value of the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) in patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LA). PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 388 LA patients were divided into D1ab, D1c, D1, D2, D2a, D2b, D3, and all patient groups based on their tumor diameter (D). Patients were also classified into negative VPI (VPI-n) and positive VPI (VPI-p) groups according to VPI presence. SUVmax of patients was measured with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) by PET/computed tomography (18F-PET/CT). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis and the area under curve (AUC) of SUVmax were applied to determine optimal cut-off value for predicting VPI occurrence. RESULTS There were significant differences in SUVmax between VPI-n and VPI-p groups ( P < 0.05) at the same tumor diameter. SUVmax cut-off value and sensitivity (Se,%) of VPI occurrence in each group were following: D1ab was 3.79 [AUC = 0.764, P < 0.001], Se86.11%; D1c was 5.47 (AUC = 0.706, P < 0.001), Se 93.75%; D1 was 5.49 (AUC = 0.731, P < 0.001), Se 79.76%; D2 was 7.36 (AUC = 0.726, P < 0.001), Se81.67%. All patient group was 7.26 (AUC = 0.735, P < 0.001), Se74.19%. CONCLUSION In LA patients with the same diameter, SUVmax of the VPI-p group was significantly higher than that of the VPI-n group. The cut-off value of SUVmax for predicting VPI of T1 stage, T1 substages, and T2 stage LA could be determined through ROC curve. SUVmax measurement by PET/CT scan in stratified tumor size is helpful for predicting VPI occurrences of the physician.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The current study evaluated a large cohort of T2N0M0 NSCLC patients with different T2 descriptors to investigate the prognostic disparities and further externally validate the T category of these patients. METHODS The Kaplan-Meier Method with the log-rank test was used to plot survival curves. The propensity score matching (PSM) method was used to reduce bias. Univariable and multivariable Cox analyses were used to determine prognostic factors. RESULTS A total of 13,015 eligible T2N0M0 NSCLC patients were included. There were 5,287, 2,577 and 5,151 patients in the T2a, T2b and non-sized determined T2N0M0 (T2non-sized) groups, respectively. Before PSM, the survival of T2non-sized patients was comparable to that of T2a patients (P = 0.080) but was superior to that of T2b patients (P < 0.001). After PSM, the survival of T2non-sized patients was inferior to that of T2a patients (P = 0.028) but was similar to that of T2b patients (P = 0.325). The T category was further subdivided based on the specific non-sized T2 descriptors and tumor size. The results of the multivariate Cox analysis found that the prognosis of T2 tumors with visceral pleural invasion (size: 0-30 mm) was better than that of T2a tumors, and the prognosis of T2 tumors with visceral pleural invasion (size: 30-40 mm) was inferior to that of T2a tumors but comparable to that of T2b tumors. CONCLUSION T2 tumors with visceral pleural invasion (size: 30-40 mm) should be assigned to the T2b category, and those with a size interval of 0-30 mm should be assigned to a better prognostic T2a category.

Abstract
Visceral pleural invasion (VPI) is a critical component in the staging of peripheral non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). We aim to investigate whether dual-block elastic stain increases visceral pleural invasion positivity compared with single-block elastic stain. We further analyze the potential predictors of visceral pleural invasion. 8419 peripheral NSCLC patients (including 6008 patients with tumor size≤3 cm in stage I) were divided into a cohort using one paraffin block (single-block group, n = 5184) and a cohort using dual paraffin blocks (dual-block group, n = 3235) for elastic stain. The VPI-positive rate demonstrated by the dual-block elastic stains group was significantly higher than that of the single-block elastic stain group (17.7% (573/3235) versus 9.1% (474/5184), respectively, P < .001). The presence of visceral pleural invasion in T1 (≤3 cm) patients detected by single- and dual-block elastic stain was 6.3% (235/3730) and 12.0% (273/2278), respectively (P < .001). 5.7% of T1 patients (stage IA) were additionally upstaged to T2a (stage IB) by dual-block elastic stain. However, the incidence of visceral pleural invasion in pT2a patients showed no significant difference between the single-block group and the dual-block group (16.8% vs. 17.1%, P = .916). Lymphovascular invasion, lymph node metastasis, dedifferentiated carcinomas, the presence of spread through airspaces (STAS) and a poorly differentiated adenocarcinomatous growth pattern could be significant predictors of visceral pleural invasion (P < .001). Our results indicate that using dual-block elastic stain identifies more visceral pleural invasion positive T1 NSCLC patients who are upstaged to T2a, and who could benefit from optimal management post-operatively. The application of dual-block elastic stain is an efficient and practical method to detect visceral pleural invasion status.

Prognostic score and sex-specific nomograms to predict survival in resectable lung cancer: A French nationwide study from the Epithor cohort database. THE LANCET REGIONAL HEALTH. EUROPE 2022; 26:100566. [PMID: 36591560 PMCID: PMC9794974 DOI: 10.1016/j.lanepe.2022.100566] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2022] [Revised: 12/01/2022] [Accepted: 12/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
Background Prognostic assessment in patients undergoing cancer treatments is of paramount importance to plan subsequent management. In resectable lung cancer availability of an easy-to use nomogram to predict long-term outcome would be extremely useful to identify high-risk patients in the era of perioperative targeted and immune therapies. Methods We retrieved clinical, surgical and pathological data of all consecutive patients included in Epithor, the database of French Society of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, and operated on between 2003 and 2020 for non-small cell lung cancer in a curative intent. The primary endpoint was overall survival up to 5 years. We assessed prognostic significance of available variables using Cox modelling, in the whole dataset, and in men and in women separately, and performed temporal validation. Finally, we constructed two sex-specific nomograms. Survivals by fifths of score were assessed in the development and temporal validation sets. Findings The study included 62,633 patients (43,551 men and 19,082 women). Median survival time was 9.2 years. Nine factors had strong prognostic impact and were used to construct nomograms. The optimism-corrected c statistic for the prognostic score was 0.689 in the development sample, and 0.726 (95% CI 0.718-0.735) in the temporal validation sample. All differences between adjacent fifths of score were significant (P < 0.0001). Figures of 3-year OS by fifths of score were 92.2%, 83.0%, 74.3%, 64.0%, and 43.4%, respectively, in the development set and 93.3%, 88.4%, 81.0%, 73.7%, 55.7% in the temporal validation set. Performance of score was maintained when stratifying by stage of diseases. Interpretation In the present work, we report evidence that long-term overall survival after resection of NSCLC can be predicted by an easy to construct and use composite score taking into account both host and tumour related factors. Funding Epithor is funded by FSTCVS.

Abstract
Allogeneic inflammatory factor-1 (AIF-1) overexpression has been reported to be associated with tumorigenesis and tumor metastasis. This study aimed to investigate the role of AIF-1 in the development and progression of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). AIF-1, IL-6, and VEGF expressions in human NSCLC tissue were examined by immunofluorescence staining. Bioinformatics analyses were performed to identify AIF-1-related molecules and pathways in NSCLC. Human lung cancer A549 cell proliferation was assessed by CCK-8 assay, and cell migration was evaluated with wound-healing assay. IL-6 and VEGF secretions in A549 cell culture supernatants were quantified using the Elecsys IL-6 immunoassay kit and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Assay Kit. RT-PCR and western blot were performed to quantify the expressions of AIF-1, IL-6, and VEGF mRNAs and proteins involved in p38-MAPK and JAK/STAT3 signaling such as p-p38 and p-STAT3. The effects of AIF-1 on A549 cell proliferation and the expressions of IL-6 and VEGF were assessed using SB203580 and ruxolitinib. The results showed that AIF-1 expression was higher in human NSCLC tissue than that in paracancer tissue. High AIF-1 expression was associated with metastasis, higher TNM stage, and poorer survival. Bioinformatics connected AIF-1 to JAK/STAT signaling in NSCLC. AIF-1 increased A549 cell proliferation, migration, IL-6 secretion and, VEGF secretion, and these effects were attenuated by inhibition of p38-MAPK or JAK/STAT3 signaling. In conclusion, AIF-1 may promote aggressive NSCLC behavior via activation of p38-MAPK and JAK/STAT signaling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The survival of patients with stage IA-IIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after surgery is heterogeneous. This study aimed to construct a prognostic risk model to predict the overall survival (OS) of these patients. METHODS Data from patients (n=9,914) from the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database were analyzed. The cases were randomly divided into the training and the validation groups. Patients from the Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital (n=270) were also included as an external cohort. Independent significant factors affecting survival in the training cohort were used to construct a nomogram. The precision was evaluated using the concordance index (C-index) and calibration plots. The X-tile software was used to confirm the optimal cut-off value to classify the patients. RESULTS Sex, age at diagnosis, tumor size, visceral pleura invasion (VPI), tumor grade, and the number of examined lymph nodes were deemed independent prognostic factors and were selected to establish the nomogram. The C-indices of the nomogram for predicting OS were 0.671 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.653-0.689] in the training group, and 0.668 (95% CI: 0.650-0.687) and 0.707 (95% CI: 0.651-0.763) in the validation and the testing groups, respectively. The cut-off value of risk points was 106.0, which stratified the patients into high-risk and low-risk groups. The high-risk patients had shorter 5-year OS than low-risk patients (P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS The established nomogram could evaluate the survival in patients with stage IA-IIA NSCLC after surgery and may provide prognostic information for clinicians to make decisions in the management of adjuvant therapy.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer mortality worldwide, and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) represents 80% of lung cancer subtypes. Patients with localized non-small cell lung cancer may be considered for upfront surgical treatment. However, the overall 5-year survival rate is 59%. To improve survival, adjuvant chemotherapy (ACT) was largely explored and showed an overall benefit of survival at 5 years < 7%. The evaluation of recurrence risk and subsequent need for ACT is only based on tumor stage (TNM classification); however, more than 25% of patients with stage IA/B tumors will relapse. Recently, adjuvant targeted therapy has been approved for EGFR-mutated resected NSCLC and trials are evaluating other targeted therapies and immunotherapies in adjuvant settings. Costs, treatment duration, emergence of resistant clones and side effects stress the need for a better selection of patients. The identification and validation of prognostic and theranostic markers to better stratify patients who could benefit from adjuvant therapies are needed. In this review, we report current validated clinical, pathological and molecular prognosis biomarkers that influence outcome in resected NSCLC, and we also describe molecular biomarkers under evaluation that could be available in daily practice to drive ACT in resected NSCLC.

Abstract
In lung cancer, chest wall infiltration caused by a tumor with a small diameter is extremely rare. The pathophysiologic features and prognosis of this phenomenon are poorly understood. Here, we report on a case in which a small peripheral lung cancer showed marked invasion into the chest wall. Although complete resection and postoperative adjuvant treatment were performed, lymph node recurrence developed and the patient died in one and a half years. Peripheral lung cancer can show exophytic development and infiltration of the chest wall, leading to poor prognosis, even if the tumor size is relatively small. Chest wall invasion by small-sized lung carcinoma Lung tumor adjacent to intrapulmonary air space can show exophytic development Lymph node metastasis with lung cancer with chest wall invasion after complete resection

Proposal for Rib invasion as an independent T descriptor for non-small cell lung cancer: A propensity-score matching analysis. Lung Cancer 2021; 159:27-33. [PMID: 34304050 DOI: 10.1016/j.lungcan.2021.07.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2021] [Revised: 06/21/2021] [Accepted: 07/14/2021] [Indexed: 01/16/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION To evaluate the prognosis between patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) invading difference depth of chest wall and estimate the impact of rib invasion on the pathological T classifications (pT). METHODS We retrospectively evaluated 521 patients with resected pT3-4 NSCLC. Propensity-score matching (PSM) balanced the known confounders of the prognosis, resulting in two sets (rib invasion vs the pT3 and pT4 group). Recurrence-free survival (RFS) and Overall survival (OS) was assessed by Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier methods. Time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to assess the additional benefit for survival prediction after reclassifying rib invasion cases. RESULTS Chest wall invasion occurred in 171 patients (62 rib invasion, 51 parietal pleural invasion [PL3] and 58 soft tissue invasion). Rib invasion was found to be an independent prognostic factor for both RFS (p = 0.006) and OS (p < 0.001) of pT3-4 NSCLC. The survival of rib invasion group was the worst (RFS: 13.1%; OS: 19.8%), followed by PL3 (RFS: 34.2%, P = 0.001; OS: 48.8%; p < 0.001) and the soft tissue invasion group (RFS: 40.6%, p = 0.001; OS: 57.7%, p < 0.001). Besides, the prognosis of rib invasion group was also found to be worse than those of pT3 (RFS: p < 0.001; OS: p < 0.001) and pT4 group (RFS: p = 0.002; OS: p < 0.001). After PSM, the 5-year RFS rate of rib invasion group were still lower than that of pT3 and pT4 group (p < 0.001); the 5-year OS rate of rib invasion was similar with that of pT4 group (p = 0.066) but lower than that of pT3 group (p = 0.014). The time-dependent ROC curves demonstrated that reclassifying rib invasion as pT4 disease provided an additional benefit for survival prediction (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION The rib invasion group had a worse prognosis than the PL3 and pT3 groups. The prognostic impact of rib invasion should be further validated as a pT4 disease in the TNM classification.

The modification of T description according to visceral pleural invasion and tumor size from 3.1 cm to 4.0 cm in non-small cell lung cancer: A retrospective analysis based on the SEER database. Lung Cancer 2021; 158:47-54. [PMID: 34119932 DOI: 10.1016/j.lungcan.2021.06.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2021] [Revised: 05/31/2021] [Accepted: 06/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES As a poor prognostic factor, visceral pleural invasion (VPI) was incorporated into non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) staging system. For modifying the T description of NSCLC, the prognostic value of VPI was assessed. MATERIALS AND METHODS From 2010-2015, data on stage pT2N0M0 NSCLC patients with tumor size (TS) from 3.1 cm to 5.0 cm who received surgery from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database were enrolled retrospectively. Propensity score matching was utilized to balance the baseline factors according to different TS intervals. Overall survival (OS) was assessed by the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test. Univariate and multivariate analysis were applied to identify the prognostic factors. The risk factors of VPI were calculated by logistic regression model. RESULT The sum of 4005 resected stage pT2N0M0 NSCLC patients with TS from 3.1 cm to 5.0 cm were recruited, which had 1084 patients with VPI and 2921 patients without VPI respectively. As TS interval of 3.1-4.0 cm, the 5-year OS of patients without VPI was significantly better than those with VPI (62.6 % vs 58.7 %, P = 0.015), while the 5-year OS of patients with VPI and TS interval of 3.1-4.0 cm had no significant difference compared with patients whose TS interval of 4.1-5.0 cm (58.7 % vs 58.8 %, P = 0.918). Logistic regressive analysis manifested that older age, female, worse differentiation grade and larger TS had higher incidence of VPI (OR = 1.01, 1.25, 1.25, 1.16, respectively; P < 0.05 for all). CONCLUSION This study underlined the prognostic effect of VPI and suggested that early-stage NSCLC with VPI and TS interval of 3.1-4.0 cm could be appropriately upstaged from pT2a (stage pIB) to pT2b (modified stage pIIA).

Clinical Guideline-Guided Outcome Consistency for Surgically Resected Stage III Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Retrospective Study. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13112531. [PMID: 34064047 PMCID: PMC8196738 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13112531] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2021] [Revised: 05/05/2021] [Accepted: 05/20/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Clinical guidelines can help reduce the use of inappropriate therapeutics due to localism and individual clinician perspectives. Nevertheless, despite the intention of clinical guidelines to achieve survival benefit or desirable outcomes, they cannot ensure a robust outcome. This retrospective study aimed to investigate whether guideline-consistency, including adjuvant treatments after surgical resection (ATSR) and guideline-matched first-line treatment for recurrence (GMT-R), according to the genomic profiles and immune status, could influence overall survival (OS). From 2006 to 2017, the clinical data of 308 patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after surgical resection were evaluated. ATSR and GMT-R were allowed in 164 (53.2%) and 129 (62.3%) patients cases after surgical pulmonary resection, among which 207 (67.2%) recurrences were identified. The 5-year OS in guideline-consistent cases was significantly better than that in guideline-inconsistent cases (p < 0.01). Subgroup analyses further showed that the 5-year OS after propensity adjustment was significantly better in guideline-consistent than in guideline-inconsistent cases (p < 0.01), but not in either ATSR or GMT-R (p = 0.24). These data suggest that the guideline-consistent alternatives, which comprise ATSR or GMT-R, can contribute to survival benefits in pathological stage III NSCLC. However, only either ATSR or GMT-R has a potential survival benefit in these patients.

Abstract
Since its conception by Pierre Denoix in the mid-20th century, the tumor, node, and metastasis (TNM) classification has undergone seven revisions. The North American database managed by Clifton Mountain was used to inform the 2nd to the 6th editions, and an international database collected by the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer, promoted by Peter Goldstraw, was used to inform the 7th and the 8th editions. In these two latest editions, it was evident that the impact of tumor size was much greater than it was suggested in previous editions; that the amount of nodal disease had prognostic relevance; and that the number and location of the distant metastases had prognostic implications. However, the TNM classification is not the only prognostic factor. Data are being collected now to inform the 9th edition of the TNM classification, scheduled for publication in 2024. Patient-, environment-, and tumor-related factors, including biomarkers (genetic biomarkers, copy number alterations, and protein alterations) are being collected to combine them in prognostic groups to enhance the prognosis provided by the mere anatomic extent of the tumor, and to offer a more personalized prognosis to an individual patient. International collaboration is essential to build a large and detailed database to achieve these objectives.

Abstract
Background Various radiological tools have been introduced to determine the malignancy or prognosis of lung carcinomas. We retrospectively summarized the clinical outcomes to evaluate whether radiological tools such as consolidation-to-tumor ratio (CTR), tumor disappearance ratio (TDR), and mediastinal diameter (MD) are suitable for surgically resected non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods This retrospective study included 260 patients (128 men and 132 women; median age, 64 years) with cT1N0-staged NSCLC who underwent thoracotomy. Disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) outcomes were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazards model. Results When the adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) with reference to cT1a/1 mi were calculated, significant differences were observed in cT1b and cT1c for DFS (P=0.04 and P<0.01, respectively) and in cT1c for OS (P=0.01). For HRs with reference to CTR (≤0.5), a significant difference was only observed in CTR (>0.5) for DFS (P=0.01). For HRs with reference to TDR (≤25%), significant differences were observed in TDR (>75%) for DFS (P=0.02) and OS (P=0.02). For HRs with reference to MD (≤5 mm), significant differences were observed in 6–20 mm (P=0.04) and >20 mm (P=0.02) for DFS and in >20 mm (P=0.02) for OS. Conclusions All radiological tools revealed significant correlations with prognosis in the patients with cT1N0-staged NSCLCs. We recommend the use of MD in a clinical context. However, further investigation of this issue is needed.

Abstract
Background Surgical outcomes of pneumonectomy for lung cancer differ based on various therapeutic strategies. Methods One hundred and fifty-one patients who underwent pneumonectomy were divided into three groups based on patients' therapeutic conditions: a primary pneumonectomy group (no preoperative treatment, n=137), an induction group (planned surgery after induction chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy, n=10), and a salvage group (surgery for residual or enlarged lesions after radical non-operative therapies, n=4). Results Multivariate analysis showed that completeness of resection (P=0.003), subcategorization of whether there was no invasion, infiltration only to the main bronchus or pleura, or invasion of other deeper structures (P=0.008), and the presence or absence of mediastinal lymph node metastasis (P=0.033) were significant prognostic factors. Severe postoperative complications occurred in 5.1% (7/137), 20% (2/10), and 0% (0/4) in the primary pneumonectomy, induction, and salvage groups, respectively. Among patients with pN0-1 disease, the 3-year overall survival rate was 58.7% in the primary pneumonectomy group, 100% and 40% in cases with high and low pathological effects in the induction group, respectively, and 50% in the salvage group. Among patients with pN2 disease, this rate was 41.4% in the primary pneumonectomy group, and no patients survived for postoperative 2 years in the other groups. Conclusions For patients undergoing pneumonectomy, subcategorization based on the invasion status (none/bronchus/pleura or other deeper structures) is a crucial prognostic factor. To consider pneumonectomy in the induction or salvage setting, selecting patients with pN0-1 disease may be mandatory.

Abstract
Objective: To assess the postoperative prognosis of patients with stage IB non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), using a prognostic model (PM). Methods: Patients with stage IB of NSCLC from the two academic databases {the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results [SEER-A, N = 1,746 (training cohort)], Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center [SYSUCC, N = 247 (validation cohort)], and SEER-B (N = 1,745)} who had undergone lung surgery from 2001 to 2015 were enrolled. The primary clinical endpoint was cancer-specific survival (CSS). Covariate inclusion of prognostic indicators was carried out using a multivariable two-sided P < 0.05. We identified and integrated significant prognostic factors for survival in the training cohort to build a model that could be validated in the validation cohort. We used univariate analysis to evaluate the utilized ability of PM in the different races/ethnicities. Results: CSS discrimination in the PM was comparable in both the training and validation cohorts [C index = 0.66(SEER-A), 0.67(SYSUCC), and 0.61(SEER-B), respectively]. Discretization with a fixed PM cutoff of 291.5 determined from the training dataset yielded low- and high-risk subgroups with disparate CSS in the validation cohort (training cohort: hazard ratio [HR] 2.724, 95% confidence intervals [CI], 2.074–3.577; validation cohort: SEER-B HR 1.679, 95% CI, 1.310–2.151, SYSUCC HR 3.649, 95% CI 2.203–6.043, all P < 0.05). Our five-factor PM was able to predict CSS; 48-month CSS was 87% in the low-risk subgroup vs. 69% in the high-risk subgroup for the training cohort, while in the validation cohort, they were 80 vs. 73%(SEER-B) and 84 vs. 60% (SYSUCC), respectively. In addition, the results showed that PM with all unadjusted HR > 1 was a significant risk prognostic indictor in white men (P < 0.001), Chinese people (P < 0.001), and other races (P = 0.012). Conclusion: We established and validated a PM that may predict CSS for patients with IB NSCLC in different races/ethnicities, and thus, help clinicians screen subgroups with poor prognosis. In addition, further prospective studies and more cases from different regions are necessary to confirm our findings.

Abstract
Background The purposes of this study were to evaluate the appropriateness of the stage migration of stage IIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in the seventh edition of the tumor, node, and metastasis classification for lung cancer to stage IIB lung cancer in the eighth edition, and to identify prognostic factors in patients with eighth-edition stage IIB disease. Methods Patients with eighth-edition stage IIB disease were subclassified into those with seventh-edition stage IIA disease and those with seventh-edition stage IIB disease, and their recurrence-free survival and disease-specific survival rates were compared. Risk factors for recurrence after curative resection were identified in all included patients. Results Of 122 patients with eighth-edition stage IIB NSCLC, 101 (82.8%) had seventh-edition stage IIA disease and 21 (17.2%) had seventh-edition stage IIB disease. Nonsignificant differences were observed in the 5-year recurrence-free survival rate and the 5-year disease-specific survival rate between the patients with seventh-edition stage IIA disease and those with seventh-edition stage IIB disease. Visceral pleural invasion was a significant risk factor for recurrence in patients with eighth-edition stage IIB NSCLC. Conclusion The stage migration from seventh-edition stage IIA NSCLC to eighth-edition stage IIB NSCLC was appropriate in terms of oncological outcomes. Visceral pleural invasion was the only prognostic factor in patients with eighth-edition stage IIB NSCLC.
