Table 1. Univariate associations and multivariable models of overall and recurrence free survival in patients with stage I and II NSCLC undergoing lobectomy.

Variables associated with survival on univariate analysis (P<0.1; in bold) were included in multivariable analyses. Only variables included in the final multivariable models are shown.
