The most common primary tumor types are included (n > 5); *based on study by Katagiri et al. [17], primary tumors were categorized as tumors with a relatively good prognosis (breast, kidney, prostate, thyroid, myeloma, and lymphoma), and tumors with a relatively poor prognosis (all other tumor types).
