Tumor-stroma percentage predicts survival in gastric cancer patients

A predictive model utilizing tumor-stroma percentage (tsp) in gastric cancer (gc) demonstrated its significance as an adverse prognostic factor for overall survival (OS). Among 872 gc patients, tsp-visual showed a hazard ratio of 2.042, indicating a correlation with advanced pathological staging. The developed nomogram effectively identified patients at risk for poor prognosis, while a novel computer-aided detection system (tsp-cad) is expected to improve tsp evaluation, enhancing prognostic assessments for gc patients.
