STAS is associated with poor prognosis in invasive lung adenocarcinoma. Therefore non-invasive and accurate pre-surgical prediction of STAS in patients with lung adenocarcinoma is essential for individualised patient management. METHODS: We included 138 patients with invasive lung adenocarcinoma who underwent lobectomy, collected their preoperative imaging data and clinical features, built a model for predicting STAS using machine learning and deep learning methods, and validated the efficacy of the model. Finally a nomogram was created based on logistic regression (LR). RESULTS: Imaging histology features showed good model efficacy in both the training set (LR AUC=0.764) and the test set (LR AUC=0.776), and we combined the imaging histology and clinical features to jointly build a nomogram graph (AUC=0.878), extracted the deep learning features, and built a machine learning model based on the ResNET50 algorithm, where the LR AUC=0.918 CONCLUSIONS: This presented radiomics model can be served as a non-invasive for predicting STAS in Infiltrating lung adenocarcinoma.

In general, tumour spread is an important factor in determining the prognosis of almost all malignancies. The concept of STAS was formally incorporated into the modes of invasion of lung adenocarcinoma in by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2015, and STAS is defined as the spread of single or clustered cancer cells in the air spaces outside the main body of the tumour [ 2 ]. STAS is an independent influence on the poor prognosis of lung cancer patients. It is associated with both recurrence and survival of patients after surgery [ 3 , 4 ]. Previous researchers described 3 morphologic patterns of STAS: micropapillary or ring-like clusters; solid nests or tumor islands; single cells [ 5 ]. STAS for microscopic diagnosis of lung cancer has been receiving attention from pathologists. Both preoperative fibreoptic bronchoscopy and percutaneous lung aspiration biopsy have shown low sensitivity for diagnosing the presence of STAS. Intraoperative frozen pathology is also often difficult for pathologists to determine accurately due to time constraints [ 6 – 8 ]. Previous research has shown that the size of the lesion and the size and proportion of the solid component correlate with STAS [ 9 ]. The observation of CT features is highly subjective and relies on the experience of the radiologist. Therefore, in this study, image histology features of CT and 2D deep learning (DL) features are extracted for modelling. In clinical practice, more and more lung cancer patients with smaller tumours (< 2 cm) are opting for sublobar resection as a surgical procedure. However, in patients with STAS-positive stage I lung ADC, the recurrence risk of sublobar resection is higher than that of lobectomy [ 10 ]. If we can predict STAS before the patient's surgery, we can specify the surgical procedure more precisely, which will benefit the patient. In this study, we collected preoperative imaging and clinical data of postoperative pathologically confirmed invasive adenocarcinoma, constructed the STAS model and validated it. Methods Patient screening and collection of characteristics 138 patients who attended the Department of Thoracic Surgery of Hebei Provincial People's Hospital between July 2022 and May 2023 were retrospectively included in this study. Inclusion criteria: 1). All patients underwent lobectomy and standardised lymph node dissection, and postoperative pathology confirmed stage I-IIIA invasive lung adenocarcinoma; 2). Patients had complete preoperative imaging and clinical data and were ≥ 18 years old at the time of surgery. Exclusion criteria: 1). patients with incomplete or unclear preoperative chest CT images; 2). patients who could not tolerate standardised surgery due to their own or various reasons. This retrospective study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Hebei Provincial General Hospital, which waived informed consent (NO.2023128). The study was conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki to ensure compliance with ethical standards and patient confidentiality by removing all identifying information from the data. Image processing and Feature Extraction All chest plain CT images in this study were done by Siemens dual source thin layer CT scanning machine with fixed interlayer spacing. The CT images were used to outline the region of interest (ROI) and cross-checked against each other by two Chinese Academy of Management Sciences (CMC) certified imaging technology engineers using ITK-SNAP version 3.8 software. A rigorous standardised methodology was used for all processes including identification of pathology sections. Geometric, intensity and texture features together make up the manual features. The geometric features are used to describe the 3D shape of the tumor and the intensity features are used to describe the distribution of voxel intensities within the tumor. Texture features are extracted based on intensity distributions, including second-order and higher-order distributions. The texture features include grey level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), grey level run length matrix (GLRLM), grey level size zone matrix (GLSZM) and neighbourhood grey-tone difference matrix (NGTDM). Baseline Characteristics Statistical methods such as Mann-Whitney U test, t-test, and X2 test were applied for data analysis of patients' clinical baseline characteristics. Table 1 summarises the baseline characteristics of the included population, which included gender, age, physical baseline and preoperative pulmonary function. The aim was to assess the correlation between the clinical characteristics and the study results to ensure that the results were valid and reliable. We divided the inclusion population into training and validation sets as we went along in a 4:1 ratio.

For processing details, we calculated the correlation coefficient between all features two by two by Spearman's rank correlation coefficient. If the correlation coefficient was greater than 0.9, one of the features was retained. In order to determine the ability of good transformation between features and data, feature screening was done using a greedy recursive deletion strategy. the features with the highest redundancy within the set in each iteration were eliminated. A total of 107 features were finally included. The feature data were modelled by LASSO regression. The regression coefficients were reduced to zero based on the moderating weights λ, and the coefficients of features with no correlation were set to 0. Fifty-fold cross-validation was used to determine the optimal λ, a minimum baseline was set, and the final value of λ was determined based on the minimum cross-validation error. The final non-zero coefficients that were filtered out were used to fit the regression model that comprised the imaging characteristics of this study. The radiomics score for each patient was determined by a linear combination of the retained features and their model coefficients. Plotting feature weights to visually analyse the relevance of different features for the occurrence of STAS. The LASSO regression model was implemented using the Python scikit-learn package. Radiomics Models A total of 8 machine learning models, LR, SVM, KNN, Random Forest, ExtraTrees, XGBoost, LightGBM and MLP, were built using radiomics features after dimensionality reduction by Lasso regression, and their corresponding ROC curves were plotted. A five-fold cross-validation method was applied to draw the box plots of the effectiveness of each model. The key radiomics features of each model were analysed to produce bar charts to determine the importance of different features in the models. Clinical Models The construction of clinical models was similar to the process used for radiomics characterisation models. Univariate and multivariate regression models were applied to this study to analyse the clinical features associated with the occurrence of STAS. In addition, the same machine learning algorithms as used to construct the radiomics models were applied, where features with a p-value threshold of less than 0.05 were included in the construction of the models. 5-fold cross-validation and test cohorts were kept constant to eliminate bias. Nomogram A nomogram for predicting STAS was created by combining the screened radiomics features and clinical features.The ROC curve of the nomogram was plotted, AUC was calculated and compared with a single radiomics model and a clinical features model.The calibration curve and Hosmer-Lemeshow analysis were used to assess the calibration efficiency of the nomogram. Calibration curves and Hosmer-Lemeshow analysis were used to assess the calibration efficiency of the nomogram.Decision Curve Analysis (DCA) was used to further assess model efficacy. All of these evaluation tools were performed on the training set species. Radiomics Deep Learning Features We intercepted the maximum diameter plane after outlining from all CT image samples. 2D deep learning features were extracted from this plane based on the ResNet50 model algorithm in convolutional neural network. 49 convolutional layers and one fully connected layer were included in the ResNet50 network. t-SNE was used to perform visualisation of the features. Lasso and machine learning models are applied to construct the radiomics deep learning model. Results Baseline population characteristics Table 1 describes the clinical characteristics of our included sample. A total of 138 patients were included in the study, out of which a total of 110 patients were listed in the training group and the rest were classified to the test group. A total of 56 females (50.91%) were in the training group and 23 (82.14%) in the test group. 34 patients had postoperative pathological findings suggestive of STAS. The pulmonary function profile of the patients FEV1/FVC showed some correlation in the training group (p < 0.05). CEA showed correlation in the test group (p < 0.001). Radiomics and Clinical characteristics A total of 10 radiomics features were extracted. The percentage of different radiomics features is shown in Fig. 1 . Figure 2 shows the distribution of radiomics features. Among them, glcm (Gray - level co - occurrence matrix) has the highest percentage of 22.4%. ngtdm (Neighbourhood grey - level difference matrix) has the lowest percentage of 4.7%. Figure 3 shows the result of the image after visualisation of all the features.Lasoo regression result is shown in Fig. 4 with λ = 0.0036. Figure 5 shows the mean standard error (MSE) of the regression. Figure 6 reacts to the weights of different features. original_gldm_LargeDependenceLowGrayLevelEmphasis and original_firstorder_Skewness have Coefficients greater than 0.1. Figures 7 a and 7 b show the results of regression after applying the machine learning algorithm on the the case of the models built in the training and test sets. Table 2 shows the details of the models. The models in the training set, such as LR (AUC = 0.764), SVM (AUC = 0.903) and KNN (AUC = 0.827), show good model performance, while RandomForest, ExtraTrees and XGBoost show overfitting. All models in the test set showed good model efficacy, with the LR model having an AUC = 0.764. Figure 8 illustrates the five-fold stochastic cross-validation of the models. Figure 9 shows the sample prediction histogram for the LR model. The calculation formula is listed as below.

Deep Learning Models Figure 14 shows the visualised image of the deep learning model implemented by the t-SNE method. We performed Lasso regression and MSE on these deep learning features with λ = 0.0295, as shown in Figs. 15 , 16 . The downscaled feature data were modelled for correlation with STAS, as shown in Figs. 17 and 18 where each model showed excellent model efficacy.LR AUC = 0.918, which is significantly better than the efficacy of traditional imaging histology feature modelling. Discussion In this study, we developed and validated a tumour-derived radiomics model based on chest CT images for pre-surgical prediction of STAS profiles in lung adenocarcinoma. We incorporated a deep learning approach while fusing clinical data with radiomics data. The predictive performance of the model is excellent compared with general regression models, which can help thoracic surgeons to select the most suitable treatment for patients before surgery. Spread through air spaces (STAS) is an aggressive behavior of tumors. This aggressive behavior was first identified in lung adenocarcinoma. In subsequent studies, STAS was also found in squamous cell carcinoma and endocrine-related tumors [ 11 – 13 ]. The occurrence of STAS is thought to be associated with advanced age, male patients, serum carcinoembryonic antigen levels and larger tumor size [ 14 ]. Several studies have confirmed that the occurrence of STAS is closely associated with poor prognosis in lung cancer patients. This observation has been made in samples of lung adenocarcinoma with different stages [ 15 – 16 ]. STAS is an independent prognostic factor for both recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS). If we can predict in advance whether STAS will occur or not, this benefits the patient's long-term prognosis and survival. Eguchi T et al. found that in patients with lung adenocarcinoma who developed STAS, undergoing lobectomy had a better outcome than sublobar resection [ 17 ]. Therefore, accurate preoperative prediction of STAS status is important for the selection of surgical options for lung cancer patients. Avoiding some STAS lung cancer patients with small tumor sizes will face higher recurrence and metastasis after undergoing local lung resection. With the preoperative prediction of the model, high-risk STAS patients should directly choose lobectomy to replace the currently common clinical practice of wedge resection of the lesion followed by waiting for intraoperative frozen pathology results. It has been shown that the sensitivity of frozen pathological sections to detect the occurrence of STAS is only 59%-86% [ 18 ]. This reduces the probability of intracavitary tumor dissemination on the one hand. On the other hand, it also shortens the operation time and reduces the injury of unnecessary anaesthetic drugs and prolonged tracheal intubation. It has been shown that the diameter of the tumor and the diameter and percentage of the solid component correlate with the development of STAS [ 19 ]. Tumor demarcation, pleural retroflexion and tumor contribution have also been used to assess VPI [ 20 – 22 ]. Qi L et al. concluded that the AUC = 0.76 in the model applying consolidation tumor ratio (CTR) to predict STAS [ 23 ]. This result is similar to the AUC of the imaging histology-only model in our study. There are previous studies that included preoperative 18F-FDG PET/CT findings [ 24 ]. However, due to the high cost of PET/CT, most patients with CT manifestations of small pulmonary nodules do not choose to undergo PET/CT in the first instance. Radiomics has also been applied to predict STAS [ 25 , 26 ]. Chen D applied imaging histological features for prediction in stage I lung adenocarcinoma and obtained good performance [ 27 ]. Currently there are fewer studies on deep learning applied to predict STAS.DL shows great promise in predicting invasiveness of lung cancer and shows good model efficacy in predicting infiltration-non-infiltration scenarios as well as lymph node metastasis. Junli T applies a 3D convolutional neural network model to predict STAS in non-small cell lung cancer, with efficacy better than the general base model [ 28 ]. However, the identification and screening of single imaging features is not an easy task even for highly qualified radiology staff. However, there are still some limitations of this study: 1. The retrospective nature of this study may have some selection bias. 2. This is a single-centre study with a relatively small sample size, and further large studies are needed in the future. External validation was constructed to build a better model to predict STAS. Conclusions This study utilized a retrospective approach to investigate the correlation of imaging histology and clinical features with airway dissemination in patients with invasive lung adenocarcinoma. It incorporates machine learning and deep learning methods. A model with good efficacy was established and validated. A nomogram with clinical guidance was finally constructed.

In general, tumour spread is an important factor in determining the prognosis of almost all malignancies. The concept of STAS was formally incorporated into the modes of invasion of lung adenocarcinoma in by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2015, and STAS is defined as the spread of single or clustered cancer cells in the air spaces outside the main body of the tumour [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR2\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2\u003c/span\u003e]. STAS is an independent influence on the poor prognosis of lung cancer patients. It is associated with both recurrence and survival of patients after surgery [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR3\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e3\u003c/span\u003e, \u003cspan citationid=\"CR4\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e4\u003c/span\u003e].\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePrevious researchers described 3 morphologic patterns of STAS: micropapillary or ring-like clusters; solid nests or tumor islands; single cells [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR5\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e5\u003c/span\u003e]. STAS for microscopic diagnosis of lung cancer has been receiving attention from pathologists. Both preoperative fibreoptic bronchoscopy and percutaneous lung aspiration biopsy have shown low sensitivity for diagnosing the presence of STAS. Intraoperative frozen pathology is also often difficult for pathologists to determine accurately due to time constraints [\u003cspan additionalcitationids=\"CR7\" citationid=\"CR6\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e6\u003c/span\u003e\u0026ndash;\u003cspan citationid=\"CR8\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e8\u003c/span\u003e]. Previous research has shown that the size of the lesion and the size and proportion of the solid component correlate with STAS [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR9\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e9\u003c/span\u003e]. The observation of CT features is highly subjective and relies on the experience of the radiologist. Therefore, in this study, image histology features of CT and 2D deep learning (DL) features are extracted for modelling.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn clinical practice, more and more lung cancer patients with smaller tumours (\u0026lt;\u0026thinsp;2 cm) are opting for sublobar resection as a surgical procedure. However, in patients with STAS-positive stage I lung ADC, the recurrence risk of sublobar resection is higher than that of lobectomy [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR10\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e10\u003c/span\u003e]. If we can predict STAS before the patient's surgery, we can specify the surgical procedure more precisely, which will benefit the patient.

If the correlation coefficient was greater than 0.9, one of the features was retained. In order to determine the ability of good transformation between features and data, feature screening was done using a greedy recursive deletion strategy. the features with the highest redundancy within the set in each iteration were eliminated.

The final non-zero coefficients that were filtered out were used to fit the regression model that comprised the imaging characteristics of this study. The radiomics score for each patient was determined by a linear combination of the retained features and their model coefficients.

We incorporated a deep learning approach while fusing clinical data with radiomics data. The predictive performance of the model is excellent compared with general regression models, which can help thoracic surgeons to select the most suitable treatment for patients before surgery.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSpread through air spaces (STAS) is an aggressive behavior of tumors. This aggressive behavior was first identified in lung adenocarcinoma. In subsequent studies, STAS was also found in squamous cell carcinoma and endocrine-related tumors [\u003cspan additionalcitationids=\"CR12\" citationid=\"CR11\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e11\u003c/span\u003e\u0026ndash;\u003cspan citationid=\"CR13\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e13\u003c/span\u003e]. The occurrence of STAS is thought to be associated with advanced age, male patients, serum carcinoembryonic antigen levels and larger tumor size [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR14\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e14\u003c/span\u003e]. Several studies have confirmed that the occurrence of STAS is closely associated with poor prognosis in lung cancer patients. This observation has been made in samples of lung adenocarcinoma with different stages [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR15\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e15\u003c/span\u003e\u0026ndash;\u003cspan citationid=\"CR16\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e16\u003c/span\u003e]. STAS is an independent prognostic factor for both recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS). If we can predict in advance whether STAS will occur or not, this benefits the patient's long-term prognosis and survival.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEguchi T et al. found that in patients with lung adenocarcinoma who developed STAS, undergoing lobectomy had a better outcome than sublobar resection [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR17\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e17\u003c/span\u003e]. Therefore, accurate preoperative prediction of STAS status is important for the selection of surgical options for lung cancer patients. Avoiding some STAS lung cancer patients with small tumor sizes will face higher recurrence and metastasis after undergoing local lung resection. With the preoperative prediction of the model, high-risk STAS patients should directly choose lobectomy to replace the currently common clinical practice of wedge resection of the lesion followed by waiting for intraoperative frozen pathology results. It has been shown that the sensitivity of frozen pathological sections to detect the occurrence of STAS is only 59%-86% [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR18\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e18\u003c/span\u003e]. This reduces the probability of intracavitary tumor dissemination on the one hand. On the other hand, it also shortens the operation time and reduces the injury of unnecessary anaesthetic drugs and prolonged tracheal intubation.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt has been shown that the diameter of the tumor and the diameter and percentage of the solid component correlate with the development of STAS [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR19\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e19\u003c/span\u003e]. Tumor demarcation, pleural retroflexion and tumor contribution have also been used to assess VPI [\u003cspan additionalcitationids=\"CR21\" citationid=\"CR20\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e20\u003c/span\u003e\u0026ndash;\u003cspan citationid=\"CR22\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e22\u003c/span\u003e]. Qi L et al. concluded that the AUC\u0026thinsp;=\u0026thinsp;0.76 in the model applying consolidation tumor ratio (CTR) to predict STAS [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR23\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e23\u003c/span\u003e]. This result is similar to the AUC of the imaging histology-only model in our study. There are previous studies that included preoperative 18F-FDG PET/CT findings [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR24\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e24\u003c/span\u003e]. However, due to the high cost of PET/CT, most patients with CT manifestations of small pulmonary nodules do not choose to undergo PET/CT in the first instance. Radiomics has also been applied to predict STAS [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR25\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e25\u003c/span\u003e, \u003cspan citationid=\"CR26\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e26\u003c/span\u003e]. Chen D applied imaging histological features for prediction in stage I lung adenocarcinoma and obtained good performance [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR27\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e27\u003c/span\u003e]. Currently there are fewer studies on deep learning applied to predict STAS.DL shows great promise in predicting invasiveness of lung cancer and shows good model efficacy in predicting infiltration-non-infiltration scenarios as well as lymph node metastasis. Junli T applies a 3D convolutional neural network model to predict STAS in non-small cell lung cancer, with efficacy better than the general base model [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR28\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e28\u003c/span\u003e]. However, the identification and screening of single imaging features is not an easy task even for highly qualified radiology staff.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHowever, there are still some limitations of this study: 1. The retrospective nature of this study may have some selection bias. 2. This is a single-centre study with a relatively small sample size, and further large studies are needed in the future. External validation was constructed to build a better model to predict STAS.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"header":"Conclusions","content":"\u003cp\u003eThis study utilized a retrospective approach to investigate the correlation of imaging histology and clinical features with airway dissemination in patients with invasive lung adenocarcinoma.

STAS is associated with poor prognosis in invasive lung adenocarcinoma. Therefore non-invasive and accurate pre-surgical prediction of STAS in patients with lung adenocarcinoma is essential for individualised patient management.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMETHODS:\u003c/strong\u003eWe included 138 patients with invasive lung adenocarcinoma who underwent lobectomy, collected their preoperative imaging data and clinical features, built a model for predicting STAS using machine learning and deep learning methods, and validated the efficacy of the model. Finally a nomogram was created based on logistic regression (LR).\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRESULTS:\u003c/strong\u003eImaging histology features showed good model efficacy in both the training set (LR AUC=0.764) and the test set (LR AUC=0.776), and we combined the imaging histology and clinical features to jointly build a nomogram graph (AUC=0.878), extracted the deep learning features, and built a machine learning model based on the ResNET50 algorithm, where the LR AUC=0.918\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCONCLUSIONS:\u003c/strong\u003eThis presented radiomics model can be served as a non-invasive for predicting STAS in Infiltrating lung adenocarcinoma.\u003c/p\u003e","manuscriptTitle":"Predicting spread through air space of lung adenocarcinoma based on deep learning and machine learning models","msid":"","msnumber":"","nonDraftVersions":[{"code":1,"date":"2024-08-09 15:44:06","doi":"10.21203/rs.3.rs-4687983/v1","editorialEvents":[{"type":"communityComments","content":0},{"type":"decision","content":"Revision requested","date":"2024-11-18T08:44:39+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""},{"type":"editorInvitedReview","content":"","date":"2024-09-09T09:45:54+00:00","index":"hide","fulltext":""},{"type":"reviewerAgreed","content":"225505947006751017861659609720594506874","date":"2024-08-27T15:07:53+00:00","index":"hide","fulltext":""},{"type":"reviewersInvited","content":"","date":"2024-08-06T12:52:52+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""},{"type":"editorAssigned","content":"","date":"2024-07-05T12:09:38+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""},{"type":"checksComplete","content":"","date":"2024-07-05T12:06:47+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""},{"type":"submitted","content":"Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery","date":"2024-07-04T17:16:56+00:00","index":"","fulltext":""}],"status":"published","journal":{"display":true,"email":"
