Six-long non-coding RNA signature predicts recurrence-free survival in hepatocellular carcinoma

Figure 5 Construction of a nomogram for recurrence-free survival prediction in hepatocellular carcinoma. A: The composite nomogram consists of the six-lncRNA score, TNM stage, and ECOG score. Each component generates their respective points according to the “Points” line drawn above. Add the points from three variables together and find the location of the total points on “Total Points” line. Then draw a vertical line from “Total Points” axis to the two lower lines which corresponds to the predicted 1-year and 3-yr recurrence-free survival (RFS) rates by the nomogram. B: Calibration curves of the nomogram for the estimation of RFS rates at 1-year (Left) and 3-years (Right). The predicted and actual 1-yr and 3-yr RFS-probabilities were drawn on the x and y axis, respectively. C: The Kaplan-Meier curve of three risk subgroups stratified by the tertiles of total points derived from the nomogram.
