This study analyzed data from 708 lung cancer patients who underwent surgery to determine optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies. Overall survival was 71.1% at 5 years and decreased to 63% at 10 years and 43.4% at 20 years. Adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy significantly improved 5-year survival for patients with lymph node involvement. Neural network modeling revealed that 5-year survival was most dependent on the phase transition between early and invasive cancer, lymph node status, and various cell ratio factors. The optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies identified were early screening and detection, experienced surgeons, aggressive surgery with lymph node dissection, precise prediction modeling, and adjuvant therapy for high-risk patients.
