Core Tip |
This study developed and validated a novel prognostic nomogram for rectal cancer, incorporating demographic, clinicopathological, haematological, and follow-up data. The prognostic factors include Karnofsky performance status, age, sex, TNM stage, chemotherapy, surgery, targeted therapy, β2-microglobulin, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio. Compared to the TNM staging system, the nomogram demonstrated high accuracy in predicting 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year overall survival (C-index 0.80), with excellent generalizability and clinical utility. It provides a reliable tool for personalized interventions. However, further research is needed to explore the role of β2-microglobulin and LDH in the progression of rectal cancer and to validate the model. |
