The univariate Cox regression analysis identified that serum albumin (HR = 0.87; 95% CI = 0.78–0.97; P = 0.013), tumor diameter (HR = 1.29; 95% CI = 1.09–1.53; P = 0.004), and PNI (HR = 0.17; 95% CI = 0.07–0.39; P = 0.01) were significant prognostic factors associated with RFS. Here, ALB is linked to neoplasm.
