Investigation of interaction between sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors and FOLFOX with colorectal cancer and type 2 diabetes

Table 4 Comparison of survival indicators between the two groups

Survival indicators (%)	Control group (n = 80)	Experimental group (n = 80)	Statistics	P value
Survival rate for one year	62.50	85.00	χ2= 10.460	0.001
Survival rate for two years	37.50	60.00	χ2= 8.105	0.004
Survival rate for three years	22.50	43.75	χ2= 8.154	0.004
Median disease-free survival (months)	19.00	31.60	Log-rank = 12.898	< 0.001

It compares the 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year survival rates, as well as the median disease-free survival (DFS), between the control and experimental groups using the χ² test (for survival rates) and the Log-rank test (for median DFS). The results showed that the experimental group had significantly higher survival rates at all time points and a significantly longer median DFS compared to the control group (all P < 0.05).
