The Development of a Nomogram to Predict Post-Radiation Necrosis in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Patients: A Large-Scale Cohort Study [Corrigendum]

Abstract

Li X-Y, Sun X-S, Liu S-L, et al. Cancer Manag Res. 2019;11:6253–6263.In Table 2, the authors identified the risk factors of nasopharyngeal necrosis using a logistic regression model, andthe final nomogram model was constructed based on these results. However, the outcome of the univariable analysisand multivariable analysis reported in Table 2 was mistakenly listed as overall survival (HR) and should have been reported as the likelihood of necrosis (OR).Table 2, column 2 heading reads "Univariable analyses HR (95% CI)" should read "Univariable analyses OR (95% CI)". Table 2, column 4 heading reads "Univariable analyses HR (95% CI)" should read "Multivariable analyses OR (95% CI)". The authors wish to apologize for this error.Read the original article
