Implication

Observational analysis reveals lymph node count influences overall survival in pN0 esophageal cancer, suggesting clinical decision support via a nomogram model.

Key Points

Patients with more than 13 lymph nodes dissected for squamous cell carcinoma had significantly better 5-year survival rates.
The nomogram model achieved C-indices of 0.677 and 0.634 for squamous cell and adenocarcinoma, respectively, indicating good predictive performance.
Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed lymph node count is a key factor in predicting overall survival in esophageal cancer patients.
The findings emphasize the importance of lymph node dissection in improving survival outcomes, calling for further validation of the nomogram's utility.
