Clinical Decision Aids in Colon Cancer: A Comparison of Two Predictive Nomograms

Micro-Abstract This study used 2 available nomograms to compare the predicted outcome for patients treated for early colon cancers and compared the predicted and actual outcomes to assess the benefit of the nomograms in the clinical setting. The study included 134 patients. The actual and predicted...

Zusammenfassung:	Micro-Abstract This study used 2 available nomograms to compare the predicted outcome for patients treated for early colon cancers and compared the predicted and actual outcomes to assess the benefit of the nomograms in the clinical setting. The study included 134 patients. The actual and predicted progression-free survivals were similar, which suggests that this may be used to predict patient's outcomes.
