Novel Blood Indicators of Progression and Prognosis in Renal Cell Carcinoma: Red Cell Distribution Width-to-Lymphocyte Ratio and Albumin-to-Fibrinogen Ratio

Figure 1

The 5-year OS (AF) and DFS (G-L) were x-tile analyzed using patient data to determine the optimal cutoff value for blood RLR and AFR. (a, d, g, j) The data are represented by the panel graph in different colors to indicate possible cutoff values. The best cutting point (8.8 and 9.0, respectively) is determined by the black circle on the x-tile image and shown in the histogram in the middle. (b, e, h, k) The histograms of the distribution of the number of people in RLR and AFR, and the kaplanMeier curves of OS (c, f) and DFS (i, l) show the difference in survival of different groups of RLR and AFR.
