Limited evidence note. Only the source material identified below has been reviewed; this is not a complete Paper GEO V2 assessment.

Preprint-specific identity and research context; the original manuscript and any later-version relationship remain unverified.

Preprint record

The official indexed SSRN record lists nine authors, a posting date of 10 June 2024, and a 21-page manuscript. It labels the work a non-peer-reviewed preprint; hosting in Preprints with The Lancet does not make it a Lancet journal publication.

Abstract-level study design

The abstract describes a retrospective multicentre comparison of sleeve lobectomy and lobectomy after neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy in central-type NSCLC. It reports intraoperative margin assessment and propensity-score weighting. Full eligibility rules, treatment allocation, tables, and follow-up data were not available for verification.

Clinical evidence boundary

The source describes an observational comparison rather than a randomized noninferiority trial. The abstract alone cannot justify treating the procedures as equivalent or recommending a change in surgery. No numerical outcome is promoted here as a full-text-verified finding.
