Figure 2From: Results of concurrent radio-chemotherapy for the treatment of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma in everyday clinical practice with special reference to early mortality The prognostic impact of hemoglobin levels, leukocyte counts, albumin levels, vascular co-morbidities and alcohol consumption. The patient overall survival depends on (a) hemoglobin levels (HR 1.53; p = 0.25), (b) leukocyte counts (HR 2.26; P = 0.016), (c) pre-therapeutic albumin levels (HR 2.28; p = 0.082), (d) vascular risk factors (HR 5.3; p = 0.047) and (e) alcohol consumption (HR 1.25; p = 0.32).Back to article page
