  1. mGPS modified glasgow prognostic score, PNI prognostic nutritional index, PLT platelet count, NLR neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, PLR platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio
  2. aThe median survival for most groups was not arrived because most patients were still alive at the last follow-up. Therefore, survival data are presented as mean with the 95% confidence interval (CI) in parentheses
  3. bKaplan–Meier survival analysis
  4. cBefore 2005, CRP was not tested regularly in our center. Therefore, CRP data are not available for 90 patients, and we lacked associated data for mGPS
