Univariate analysis of factors predicting local recurrence in patients who underwent surgery (excluding pathologic Stage IV) (n = 66)

	Odds ratio	95% CI	p-value
Age (>70 vs ≤70 years)	1.35	(0.36–5.17)	0.66
Tumor size (>70 vs ≤70 mm)	0.33	(0.066–1.690)	0.18
Surgical site (left vs right)	2.26	(0.59–8.62)	0.23
Surgical approach (VATS vs thoracotomy)	3.20	(0.77–13.36)	0.11
Lymph node dissection (ND0/1 vs ND2)	4.90	(1.20–19.93)	0.027
Histology (Sq vs others)	1.16	(0.32–4.26)	0.82
Pathologic pleural invasion (positive vs negative)	0.34	(0.081–1.400)	0.13
Pathologic N status (pN1/2 vs pN0)	3.20	(0.85–12.06)	0.086

CI: confidence interval; Sq: squamous cell carcinoma; VATS: video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery; ND: nodal dissection
