Nomogram predicting overall survival for LUAD patients. a For each patient, the points were calculated from the five predictors in the nomogram. The sum of these points is located on the‘Total Points’axis. Then a line is drawn downward to determine the possibility of 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival for LUAD. b The calibration curves for consistency validation of the nomogram. The X-axis represents nomogram-predicted OS and the Y-axis represents actual OS for 1, 3, 5 year. Dashed line at 45° represents perfect prediction and the actual performances of our nomogram are blue line. The more the blue lines and dashed lines in the graph coincide, the better the predictive performance of the nomogram
