Table 8 Areas under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for the independent predictors and nomogram model in the validation group.
Areas under the ROC curve | 95% CI | |
---|---|---|
Pre/end pre-albumin | 0.718 | 0.562–0.873 |
PLR during RT | 0.698 | 0.484–0.913 |
NLR at the end of RT | 0.738 | 0.562–0.913 |
Nomogram model | 0.854 | 0.696–1.000 |
CI – confidence interval; PLR – platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio; RT – radiation therapy; NLR – neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio. |
