Influencing factors for mortality in prostate cancer patients with T1 and T2 stage: a retrospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Few reports have focused on the influencing factors of localized prostate cancer (PCa)-specific mortality so far. This study aimed to develop a competitive risk model for identifying the factors influencing the localized PCa mortality rate based on 135,310 subjects in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database.

Methods
