Prediction and analysis of the tumor invasiveness of pulmonary ground-glass nodules based on metabolomics.

ABSTRACT: In recent years, the incidence of ground-glass nodular lung adenocarcinoma has gradually increased. Preoperative evaluation of the tumor invasiveness is very important, but there is a lack of effective methods. Plasma samples of ground-glass nodular lung adenocarcinoma and healthy volunteers were collected. Pulmonary nodules with different densities were compared by metabolomics. Different invasive degrees of lung adenocarcinoma were contrasted as well. Multivariate statistical methods were applied to search for significant metabolites from comparisons between two groups. The common metabolites among the different comparisons were selected and then assessed by various indices. Five metabolites were discovered for lung adenocarcinoma with different invasive degrees.
