Table 4.

Univariate and multivariate linear and logistic regression analyses of body parameters pre-neoadjuvant treatment in relation to complications and length of stay. To model the relationship between pre-operative patient variables including body composition parameters, with measures of early post-operative outcomes, univariate analyses with clinically relevant parameters were performed. Variables with a value of P < 0.10 in the univariate analyses were included in the subsequent multivariate (logistic regression) analyses
