Construction of a prognostic model for radical esophagectomy based on immunohistochemical prognostic markers combined with clinicopathological factors

GPNMB is a prognostic marker consistent with the characteristics of tumor therapeutic targets. For the first time, we constructed a prognostic model combining immunohistochemical prognostic markers and clinicopathological features in ESCC, which showed higher prognostic efficacy than AJCC staging system in predicting the prognosis of ESCC patients in this region.
