Supplementary materials: Clinical outcomes of powered and manual staplers in video-assisted thoracic surgery lobectomy for lung cancer

This is a peer-reviewed supplementary table for the article 'Clinical outcomes of powered and manual staplers in video-assisted thoracic surgery lobectomy for lung cancer' published in the Journal of Comparative Effectiveness Research.Supplementary Table 1. The constructed prediction equations from the multiple regression analyses.Summary: Methods: This retrospective cohort study identified patients who underwent video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) lobectomy for lung cancer from January 2016 to December 2018 in a Chinese tertiary general hospital. The electronic hospital medical records associated with the VATS lobectomy for lung cancer were the data sources. Results: Based on the analysis of 433 patients with the utilization of staplers in their VATS lobectomy for lung cancer, using powered stapler was associated with significantly shorter operation time and postsurgery hospital stay length than using the manual stapler in the multivariable generalized linear regression analyses with the adjustment of patient characteristics. However, no other significant differences were observed for other clinical outcomes between the two staplers.

此为发表在《比较疗效研究杂志》上题为《视频辅助胸腔镜手术肺叶切除术治疗肺癌的临床结果》一文的同行评审补充表格。补充表1。构建的多重回归分析预测方程总结：方法：本项回顾性队列研究识别了2016年1月至2018年12月期间在一所中国三级综合医院接受视频辅助胸腔镜手术（VATS）肺叶切除术治疗肺癌的患者。与VATS肺叶切除术相关的电子医院病历为数据来源。结果：基于对433名在VATS肺叶切除术治疗肺癌中使用吻合器的患者进行分析，在多变量广义线性回归分析中，调整患者特征后，使用电动吻合器与使用手动吻合器相比，手术时间显著缩短，术后住院时间长度也显著缩短。然而，在两种吻合器之间，其他临床结果未观察到显著差异。
