Development and validation of nomograms for predicting prognosis in patients with resectable bladder urothelial carcinoma undergoing radical cystectomy: a multicenter retrospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

This study aimed to construct and validate nomograms for the prediction of overall survival (OS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), and disease-free survival (DFS) in patients with resectable bladder urothelial carcinoma (BUC) after radical cystectomy (RC).

Methods

We retrospectively collected the demographic, pathological, imaging, and laboratory data from patients with BUC who underwent RC. The training cohort included patients from the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from January 2018 to December 2021, while the test cohort included patients from the same hospital between January 2016 and December 2017, along with patients from Qilu Hospital of Shandong University. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were conducted to identify independent p
