The conditional recurrence-free survival after R0 hepatectomy for locally advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma: A competing risk analysis based on inflammation-nutritional status
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background: Conditional survival analysis can serve as a dynamic prognostic metric, which helps to estimate the real-time survival probability over time. The present study conducted a conditional recurrence-free survival (CRFS) analysis for locally advanced intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) after R0 hepatectomy from an inflammatory-nutritional perspective using the competing risk method. Methods: We extracted the medical data of 164 locally advanced ICC patients after R0 resection from Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center. The calculation formula of the CRFS rate is CRFS(y/x) = RFS(y + x)/RFS(x). Univariable and multivariable COX regression analysis and competing risk analysis were conducted to identify RFS indicators. Results: Considering death before recurrence as a competing risk factor, the conditional RFS rates every 6 months gradually increased over time. The 24-month RFS rate increased from 29.2 % to 49.9 %, 68.5 %, and 85.1 % given 6, 12, and 18-month already recurrence-free survival, respectively. Both in multivariate COX regression analysis and competing risk analysis, tumor diameter and number, lymph node metastasis, aggregate systemic inflammation index score (AISI), and albumin-bilirubin score (ALBI) all remained significant. For both AISI and ALBI variables, the CRFS rates in the low-value set were higher than those of the high-value set. Conclusions: Conditional RFS rates of locally advanced ICC after R0 hepatectomy dynamically increased over time, which contributed to reducing survivors' psychological distress and facilitating personalized follow-up schedules. In addition, a person's inflammatory and nutritional status significantly impact the recurrence risk. Oncologists should consider the role of inflammation-nutritional status when making decisions for patients with locally advanced ICC.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
