C-Reactive Protein to Prealbumin Ratio (CPR): A Novel Inflammatory-Nutritional Prognostic Factor for Predicting Cancer-Specific Survival (CSS) and Overall Survival (OS) in Patients with Resectable Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Table 4

Comparison of AUC areas for the prognostic factors in ESCC.

	AUC	95% CI	P-value
CPR	0.728	0.678-0.774	Reference
CAR	0.702	0.651-0.750	0.0015
CRP	0.702	0.651-0.750	0.0008
ALB	0.573	0.519-0.625	0.0001
PALB	0.686	0.635-0.735	0.2161

ESCC: esophageal squamous cell carcinoma; CRP: C-reactive protein; PALB: prealbumin; ALB: albumin; CPR: C-reactive protein to prealbumin ratio; CAR: C-reactive protein to albumin ratio; AUC: area under the curve.
