Abstract
- Abstract In the present study, we examined the factors affecting survival of women with inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) and constructed and validated a nomogram to predict overall survival (OS) in these patients. The cohort was selected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program between 1 January 2004 and 31 December 2013. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression models were constructed. A nomogram was developed based on significant prognostic indicators of OS. The discriminatory and predictive capacities of the nomogram were assessed using Harrell's concordance index (C‐index) and calibration plots. A total of 1651 eligible patients were identified, with a median survival time of 31 months (range 0‐131 months), and the 3‐ and 5‐year OS rates were 52.8% and 39.5%, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that race (P
