Sums: SEER summary stage; rad: radiotherapy status; chemo: chemotherapy status; LN_sur: regional lymph node dissection after surgery; rad_sur: sequence of radiation.ROC curves. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the new nomogram and AJCC. Both training cohort (a–c) and validation cohort (d–f) show that the new nomogram predictive ability is better than that of AJCC.Calibration curves for the new nomogram.
