TUMOR
A total of 433 patients were included. The nomogram was constructed based on age, site, and tumor size, Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) stage, and therapy. The area under the curves of the nomogram predicting 6-, 12-, and 18-month cancer-specific survival were 0.789, 0.757, and 0.726 for the internal validation and 0.796, 0.763, and 0.795 for the external validation. Calibration curves and decision curve analysis were performed. Further, patients were divided into 2 risk subgroups. The Kaplan–Meier analysis and the log-rank test showed that the risk stratification made well differentiation of patients with different risks of cancer-specific survival.
