ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
This study aimed to investigate the association between cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and perioperative morbidity and long-term mortality in operable patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). PATIENTS ANDMETHODS:
This prospective study included consecutive patients with early-stage NSCLC who underwent presurgical cardiopulmonary exercise testing between November 2014 and December 2019 (registration number ChiCTR2100048120). Logistic and Cox proportional hazards regression were applied to evaluate the correlation between CRF and perioperative complications and long-term mortality, respectively. Propensity score overlap weighting was used to adjust for the covariates. We performed sensitivity analyses to determine the stability of our results.RESULTS:
A total of 895 patients were followed for a median of 40 months [interquartile range 25]. The median age of the patients was 59 years [range 26-83], and 62.5% were male. During the study period, 156 perioperative complications and 146 deaths were observed. Low CRF was associated with a higher risk of death (62.9 versus 33.6 per 1000 person-years; weighted incidence rate difference, 29.34 [95% CI, 0.32 to 58.36] per 1000 person-years) and perioperative morbidity (241.6 versus 141.9 per 1000 surgeries; weighted incidence rate difference, 99.72 [95% CI, 34.75 to 164.70] per 1000 surgeries). A CRF of ≤ 20 ml/kg/min was significantly associated with a high risk of long-term mortality (weighted hazard ratio, 1.98 [95% CI, 1.31 to 2.98], p < 0.001) and perioperative morbidity (weighted odds ratio, 1.93 [1.28 to 2.90], p = 0.002) compared to higher CRF.CONCLUSION:
The study found that low CRF is significantly associated with increased perioperative morbidity and long-term mortality in operable patients with early-stage NSCLC.
Low cardiorespiratory fitness is significantly associated with increased perioperative morbidity and long-term mortality in operable patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer.Future research is recommended to investigate the potential prognostic role of integrating cardiorespiratory fitness into the currently used prognosis algorithm for patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
