aThe IDI was calculated based on the comparison of model II (adjusted for stage, sex and age) and the full clinical model III (adjusted for stage, age, sex, bmi and CRP – presented here).

bThe IDI was calculated based on the comparison of the full clinical model III (adjusted for stage, age, sex, bmi and CRP) and the full clinical model III with the three top selected glycans.
