Adjusted Hazard Ratios (aHR) < 1.00 indicate longer survival time among API patients compared to non-Hispanic White patients. Using proportional hazard regression, aHRs are adjusted for year of diagnosis, age, marital status, sex, SEER registry, stage at diagnosis, tumor location, grade, and histology.

Further adjusted for treatment (receipt of adequate lymph node examination, radiation therapy, and surgery).
