Abstract
The goal of the research was to examine the value of peripheral blood indicators in forecasting survival and recurrence among people suffering central-type non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing sleeve lobectomy (SL). Clinical information was gathered from 146 individuals suffering from NSCLC who had SL at our facility between January 2014 and May 2023. Peripheral blood neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte lymphocyte ratio (MLR), and platelet lymphocyte ratio (PLR) levels were determined by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve to establish the threshold points. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was employed to evaluate the prognostic value of different groupings, and both univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards model (referred to as COX) were performed. The disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) cutoff values were carried out via ROC analysis. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed notable differences in OS for NLR (≥2.196 vs. <2.196, p = 0.0009), MLR (≥0.2763 vs. <0.2763, p = 0.0018), and PLR (≥126.11 vs. <126.11, p = 0.0354). Similarly, significant differences in DFS were observed for NLR (≥3.010 vs. <3.010, p = 0.0005), MLR (≥0.2708 vs. <0.2708, p = 0.0046), and PLR (≥126.11 vs. <126.11, p = 0.0028). Univariate Cox analysis showed that NLR (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.469; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.416-4.306, p < 0.001), MLR (HR: 2.192, 95% CI: 1.319-3.643, p = 0.002) and PLR (HR: 1.696, 95% CI: 1.029-2.795, p = 0.038) were correlated alongside OS. Multivariate Cox analysis showed that NLR (HR: 2.036, 95% CI: 1.072-3.864, p = 0.030) was a separate OS risk variable. Additionally, the pN stage (HR: 3.163, 95% CI: 1.660-6.027, p < 0.001), NLR (HR: 2.530, 95% CI: 1.468-4.360, p < 0.001), MLR (HR: 2.229, 95% CI: 1.260-3.944, p = 0.006) and PLR (HR: 2.249, 95% CI: 1.300-3.889, p = 0.004) were connected to DFS. Multivariate Cox analysis showed that pN stage (HR: 3.098, 95% CI: 1.619-5.928, p < 0.001) was a separate DFS risk variable. The study demonstrates that NLR, MLR, and PLR play a convenient and cost-effective role in predicting survival and recurrence among individuals alongside central-type NSCLC having SL.
