Stage-stratified survival curves of patients in the distal subtotal gastrectomy and total gastrectomy groups. In stage-stratified subgroup analysis of stage I, the 5-year survival rates in the distal subtotal gastrectomy and total gastrectomy groups are 91% and 94%, respectively (P = 0.759; (a). For patients at stage II, the 5-year survival rates in the distal subtotal gastrectomy and total gastrectomy groups are 83% and 66%, respectively (P = 0.075; (b). In the subgroup analysis of stage III, the 5-year survival rates in the distal subtotal gastrectomy and total gastrectomy groups are 40% and 33%, respectively (P = 0.203; (c)
