Abstract

Objectives: To evaluate the predictive value of combining CT radiomics features and inflammatory markers for the preoperative prediction of spread through air spaces (STAS) in pulmonary adenocarcinoma.

Methods: In this retrospective study, we analyzed data from 256 patients diagnosed with pulmonary adenocarcinoma between 2021 and 2023. Patients were categorized into two groups based on the presence (n = 115) or absence (n = 141) of STAS, as confirmed by histopathological examination. CT imaging data and routine blood test results, including inflammatory markers, were collected. A validation cohort of 233 patients was included for external validation. Statistical analyses, including univariate and multivariate logistic regression, were performed to identify independent predictors of STAS. Model performance was assessed using Receiver Operating Characteristic curve analysis.

Results: Key CT radiomics features, such as density, satellite lesions, irregular shape, spiculation, vascular convergence, and the vacuole sign, were significantly associated with STAS. Among inflammatory markers, a lower lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) and higher neutrophil-to-lymphocyte (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratios (PLR) were predictive of STAS. The combined predictive model, integrating CT radiomics and inflammatory markers, demonstrated a high discriminatory ability, achieving an area under the curve of 0.915, which was externally validated with an AUC of 0.847.

Conclusions: The combination of CT radiomics and inflammatory markers provides an effective, non-invasive preoperative tool for predicting STAS in pulmonary adenocarcinoma, aiding in early prognostication and treatment planning.

期刊介绍: The American Journal of Cancer Research (AJCR) (ISSN 2156-6976), is an independent open access, online only journal to facilitate rapid dissemination of novel discoveries in basic science and treatment of cancer. It was founded by a group of scientists for cancer research and clinical academic oncologists from around the world, who are devoted to the promotion and advancement of our understanding of the cancer and its treatment. The scope of AJCR is intended to encompass that of multi-disciplinary researchers from any scientific discipline where the primary focus of the research is to increase and integrate knowledge about etiology and molecular mechanisms of carcinogenesis with the ultimate aim of advancing the cure and prevention of this increasingly devastating disease. To achieve these aims AJCR will publish review articles, original articles and new techniques in cancer research and therapy. It will also publish hypothesis, case reports and letter to the editor. Unlike most other open access online journals, AJCR will keep most of the traditional features of paper print that we are all familiar with, such as continuous volume, issue numbers, as well as continuous page numbers to retain our comfortable familiarity towards an academic journal.
