Prognostic factors for resected invasive mucinous lung adenocarcinoma: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Surgery is the optimal choice for early invasive mucinous lung adenocarcinoma (IMA). A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to explore the prognostic factors for resected IMA.

Methods

We systematically reviewed the prognostic role of clinicopathological and genomic factors in resected IMA patients. Eligible studies on the treatment of IMA following the systematic search of PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane Library from January 2015 to January 2024 were identified. Outcomes of interest were overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival/recurrence-free survival (DFS/RFS). The hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were used as impact indicators for systematic review and meta-analysis.

Results

Sixteen studies involving 3,484 patients
