Purpose This study aimed to evaluate the consistency of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER2)status between primary breast cancer lesions and lung metastatic lesions and to establish a prognostic model for predicting the survival rate of HER2 low expression(HER2-low)breast cancer patients with lung metastasis.Methods Clinicopathological data from a cohort of 252 patients with breast cancer and lung metastasis were retrospec-tively analyzed.Results 50.00％of the patients had HER2-low expression in metastatic lesions,and HER2-low ex-pression was the most prevalent subgroup in both primary and metastatic lesions.A discordance in HER2 status be-tween primary and metastatic sites was observed in 28.07％of cases.The most frequent shift was from HER2-zero in the primary tumor to HER2-low expression in the metastasis(12.28％of all cases).Estrogen receptor(ER)status,menopausal status,and histological type were identified as independent prognostic factors for overall survival(OS)by univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses.A prognostic model incorporating these factors was constructed to predict 3-year and 5-year survival.The model demonstrated area under the curve(AUC)values of 0.765 and 0.780 for 3-year and 5-year OS in the training cohort,and 0.667 and 0.706 in the validation cohort,respectively.Conclu-sion HER2-low expression is the most common subtype among breast cancer patients with lung metastasis.The ob-served shift from HER2-zero in primary lesions to HER2-low in metastases underscores the clinical necessity of re-biop-sy at metastatic sites.The developed prognostic model effectively predicts OS in this patient population.

Objective:To explore the effect of preoperative home-based rehabilitation in patients undergoing lung cancer surgery.Methods:From January 2021 to June 2022, convenience sampling was used to select 118 lung cancer patients who underwent surgical treatment at the Xinxiang First People's Hospital of Henan Province. The patients were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, with 59 cases each. The control group received routine nursing, while the observation group received preoperative home-based rehabilitation. We compared the lung function, nutritional indicators, incidence of postoperative atelectasis and pulmonary infection, as well as the duration of thoracic closed drainage tube insertion and postoperative hospital stay between the two groups.Results:After intervention, the forced vital capacity (FVC), maximum ventilation volume (MVV), the percentage of forced expiratory volume in one second to the predicted value (FEV 1%), ventilate storage ratio (VSR), hemoglobin and serum albumin in the control group were lower than those before intervention, and the levels of FVC, MVV, FEV 1%, VSR, hemoglobin and serum albumin in the observation group after intervention were higher than those in the control group, with statistical differences ( P<0.05). The incidence of postoperative atelectasis and pulmonary infection in the observation group were lower than that in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The observation group had shorter duration of thoracic closed drainage tube insertion and postoperative hospital stay compared to the control group, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Preoperative home-based rehabilitation can effectively maintain postoperative lung function and nutritional status of patients, reduce postoperative complications, shorten postoperative drainage tube insertion time and hospital stay, and facilitate postoperative recovery.
