ESCC, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma; NPS, Naples prognostic score; NLR, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio; LMR, lymphocyte to monocyte ratio; ALB, albumin; TC, total cholesterol. Model 1: The cut-off values according to the previous published studies. Model 2: The cut-off values according to the ROC curves in the current study.
