Prediction of distant metastasis and survival prediction of gastric cancer patients with metastasis to the liver, lung, bone, and brain: research based on the SEER database.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Gastric cancer (GC) is a globally important disease. It is the 5th most common malignancy and the 4th most common cause of death from cancer in the world. Patients with GC are often at an advanced stage when they are first diagnosed, and their overall prognosis is poor due to locally advanced and distant metastasis. This study sought to establish a predictive model of GC distant metastasis and survival that can be used to guide individualized treatment.

Methods

Patients diagnosed with GC from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database were enrolled in the study. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify risk and prognostic factors for GC patients with distant metastasis. The factors were then used to construct nom
