Figure 6. Kaplan-Meier survival curves for patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (LA-ESCC) stratified by hematologic markers and pathological complete response (pCR). (A) Disease-free survival (DFS) stratified by baseline neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR). (B) DFS stratified by preoperative C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio (CAR). (C) Overall survival (OS) stratified by baseline NLR. DFS (D) and OS (E) stratified by pCR status.
