Table 4.

The OS predictive model of patients with Stage II colorectal cancer

Predictive model Regression coefficient
Equation Score = 1.116 × TD + 2.202 × LVI + 3.676 × UPM + 1.438 × LN − 0.493
Variable TD (poorly-differentiated = 1, well or moderate differentiated = 0)
LVI (present = 1, absent = 0)
UPM (present = 1, absent = 0)
LNs retrieved (<12 LNs = 1, ≥12 LNs = 0)
Risk category Low risk: Below 0.07 (no recommendation of adjuvant chemotherapy)
Moderate risk: Between 0.07 and 1.33 (conditional recommendation of adjuvant chemotherapy)
High risk: Above 1.33 (strong recommendation of adjuvant chemotherapy)

TD: Tumor differentiation; LVI: Lymphovascular invasion; UPM: Uncertain or positive margins; LNs: Lymph nodes; OS: Overall survival.
