Core Tip

Core Tip: This study introduces a predictive nomogram for endometrial cancer recurrence postsurgery, incorporating circulating tumor DNA, carcinoembryonic antigen 125, and tumor grade. The model, validated through receiver operating characteristic and decision curve analysis, accurately forecasts short-term recurrence-free survival and aids in risk stratification.
