Postoperative prognostic nomogram for adult grade II/III astrocytoma in the Chinese Han population.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Prognostic models of glioma have been the focus of many studies. However, most of them are based on Western populations. Additionally, because of the complexity of healthcare data in China, it is important to select a suitable model based on existing clinical data. This study aimed to develop and independently validate a nomogram for predicting the overall survival (OS) with newly diagnosed grade II/III astrocytoma after surgery.

Methods

Data of 472 patients with astrocytoma (grades II-III) were collected from Qilu Hospital as training cohort while data of 250 participants from Linyi People's Hospital were collected as validation cohort. Cox proportional hazards model was used to construct the nomogram and individually predicted 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival probabi
