Core Tip

Core tip: A nomogram including jaundice, carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9), American Joint Committee on Cancer tumor node metastasis stage, and incisional margin status was built to predict the survival of gallbladder cancer patients who underwent curative resection at Peking Union Medical College Hospital. After calibration and verification, this model was shown to have high predictive accuracy and good performance.
