Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the characteristics of T lymphocyte subsets and its relationship with tumor-related death in patients with non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)after radiofrequency ablation(RFA).Methods:A total of 105 patients with NSCLC who were treated with RFA in the First People's Hospital of Shuangliu District and West China Hospital of Sichuan University from August 2017 to August 2020 were selected.According to the tumor-related death within 3 years of postoperative follow-up,patients were divided into survival group(n=45)and death group(n=60).Changes of T lymphocyte subsets CD3+T,CD4+T,CD8+T and CD4+T/CD8+T in patients before and after RFA treatment were analyzed.Clinical data and T lymphocyte subsets before and 1 day,7 days and 14 days after RFA treatment were compared between the two groups.Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis was used to analyze the factors affecting tumor-related death and the predictive value of T lymphocyte subsets at 7 days after operation.Con-struct the prediction model and evaluate its stability.Results:Levels of CD3+T,CD4+T and CD4+T/CD8+T on the 7th and 14th day after operation were significantly lower than those before RFA treatment,while CD8+T was increased significantly(P<0.05).CD3+T,CD4+T and CD4+T/CD8+T of two groups at the 7th and 14th after operation were significantly lower than those before RFA treatment,while CD8+T was significantly higher(P<0.05).CD3+T,CD4+T and CD4+T/CD8+T in death group on the 7th and 14th day after opera-tion were significantly lower than those in survival group,while CD8+T was significantly higher than that in survival group(P<0.05).Tumor diameter≥3 cm,TNM stage Ⅲ～Ⅳ,and the increase of CD8+T on the 7th day after operation were the risk factors of tumor-related death,while postoperative adjuvant therapy,and the increase of CD3+T,CD4+T and CD4+T/CD8+T on the 7th day after operation were protective factors(P<0.05).After adjusting the covariates,CD3+T,CD4+T,CD8+T and CD4+T/CD8+T on the 7th day after operation were still independent predictors of tumor-related death(P<0.05).The stability of the prediction model was good.Conclusion:Charac-teristics of T lymphocyte subsets on the 7th day after RFA treatment were related to tumor-related death in patients with NSCLC.
