Exploring and detecting predictors associated with survival and mortality of cervical cancer patients: a 10-year retrospective study by Shaba Muneeha, Raushan Kumar Chaudhary, Vijith Vittal Shetty, Soumya Patil, Uday Venkat Mateti

“…Conclusion We conclude that the 5- and 10-year survival rates for cervical cancer patients were found to be 51.2% and 42.9%, respectively. Advanced age, underweight, postmenopausal status, advanced cancer stage, poor cancer cell differentiation and chemotherapy-based treatment were significant predictor of mortality and vice-versa for survival which might guide clinicians and policymakers in making informed clinical decisions to combat cervical cancer.…”
