Apart from intercept, estimates represent the percentage-point difference from the weighted cohort average probability of each route. If 95%CI does not contain zero, the percentage-point difference from average will be more than 2 SD and indicates variation that is unlikely to be due to chance. Bold indicates a difference that is > 2 SD above or below average. iCCA: Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma; eCCA: Extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
