Predictive Value of FOLFOX-Based Regimen, Long Interval, Hemoglobin Levels and Clinical Negative Nodal Status, and Postchemoradiotherapy CEA Levels for Pathological Complete Response in Patients with Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer after Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy

Figure 2

Calibration curve of observed and predicted probabilities. The x axis is the predicted probabilities measured by the final logistic regression model and the y axis is the actual probabilities. The long-dashed line represents an ideal nomogram whose predicted outcome perfectly corresponds to the actual outcome. The solid line (bias-corrected) represents the bootstrap-corrected performance of our nomogram, and the short-dashed line represents apparent accuracy of the nomogram. The apparent and bias-corrected line fell approximately along the ideal line, which indicates that the calculated by the nomogram accurately represents the actual prediction of pathological complete response (pCR) for rectal cancer in both the primary and validation cohorts.
