A predictive nomogram was developed to assess the risk of postoperative complications in gastric cancer patients undergoing robotic-assisted radical gastrectomy. The study analyzed data from 636 patients across two cohorts and identified five independent risk factors: tumor diameter, TNM stage III, ASA classes I and III, and visceral fat area. The nomogram demonstrated good discrimination, with AUC values of 0.81 for internal validation and 0.79 for external validation, proving useful for clinical decision-making.
