Blood parameters score predicts long-term outcomes in stage II-III gastric cancer patients

Figure 1 Construction of the blood parameters score, a classifier comprising five blood parameters. A: Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) coefficient profiles of the nine blood parameters. The vertical line indicates the value chosen by 10-fold cross-validation; B: Ten-fold cross-validation for tuning parameter selection in the LASSO Cox model. Solid vertical lines represent partial likelihood deviance ± standard error. We plotted the partial likelihood deviance vs log (λ), where λ is the tuning parameter. The vertical lines are drawn at the optimal values by minimum criteria and 1 - S.E. criteria.
