Brief summary

This study aimed to predict different physical activity (PA) levels in patients undergoing thoracoscopic lung resection surgery (LRS) using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) and investigate the association between the PA levels and the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs). The patients were classified into the high-level and low-level PA groups based on the IPAQ scores. The incidence of PPCs within postoperative 5 days, number of PPCs, the incidence of postoperative adverse events (PAEs) within postoperative 5 days, extubation time, length of hospital stay (LOS), unplanned admission to the intensive care unit (ICU), and the mortality 1-month postoperatively were recorded. Arterial blood samples were collected before induction of anesthesia and 1 hour postoperatively, and the supernatants were centrifuged for cytokine analysis. Binomial logistic analysis was performed to determine the relationship between predefined variables and PPCs. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to identify independent risk factors, and the area under the curve (AUC) was calculated.
