Table 3. Results of univariate analysis for two-year OS, LRFS, and DMFS.

OS = overall survival; LRFS = local recurrence-free survival; DMFS = distant metastasis-free survival; NLR = neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio; SII = systemic inflammation index; SBRT = stereotactic body radiation therapy; BED = biologically equivalent dose; CHT = chemotherapy; FOLFIRINOX = leucovorin calcium (folinic acid), fluorouracil, irinotecan hydrochloride, and oxaliplatin
