Only significant or nearly significant indices on univariate analysis were included on the multivariate analysis. Significant p-value in bold.

For OST, histologic subtypes compares Osteoblastic vs Chondroblastic/Telangiectatic subtypes.

EWS: Ewing sarcoma; OST: Osteosarcoma; NRM: not retained in model.
