A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data from 328 GBC patients treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Huzhou University from 2008 to 2021. Patients were randomly divided into a training set (n=230) and a validation set (n=98). Clinical data, laboratory indexes, and follow-up data were collected. Univariate Cox regression analysis identified age, tumor T-staging, lymph node metastasis, differentiation degree, and CA199 level as prognostic factors affecting DFS (all P<0.05). A prediction model constructed using the LASSO regression achieved AUCs of 0.827 and 0.801 for predicting 1-year and 3-year DFS, respectively. Notably, the XGBoost regression model showed higher prediction accuracy with AUCs of 0.922 and 0.947, respectively. The Delong test confirmed that the XGBoost model had significantly higher AUC values compared to the LASSO model (all P<0.001). In the validation set, the XGBoost model demonstrated AUCs of 0.764 and 0.761 for predicting 1-year and 3-year DFS, respectively. Overall, the XGBoost regression model demonstrates high accuracy and clinical value in predicting short-term DFS in GBC patients after radical surgery, offering a valuable tool for personalized treatment.</p>","PeriodicalId":7437,"journal":{"name":"American journal of cancer research","volume":"14 9","pages":"4537-4550"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11477827/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142485669","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
