Nomogram for predicting disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS): Locate the grade of the patient on the grade axis and then draw a straight line upward to the Points axis to determine how many points toward survival the patient receives for her/his grade. Repeat this process for the other axes, each time drawing a straight line upward toward the Points axis. Take the sum of the points received for each predictor and locate this sum on the Total Points axis. Draw a straight line down to the survival-probability axis to find the patient's probability of surviving colorectal cancer.
