DISEASE
Within 1 month after the radiotherapy, 3 patients achieved complete response (CR), 36 achieved partial response (PR) and 2 ones achieved stable disease (SD) in the night group, with a CR rate and PR rate of 7.3% (3/41) and 87.8% (36/41), respectively, while five patients achieved CR, 35 ones PR and 1 one SD in the day group, with CR rate and a PR rate of 12.2% (5/41) and 85.4% (35/41), respectively. The overall response rate (ORR = CR + PR) of the patients was 95.1% (39/41) and 97.6% (40/41) in the night group and day group, respectively.The differences in CR rate, PR rate and ORR were not statistically significant between the night group and day group (Evaluation of the curative effect in the two groups within one month after radiotherapy (
