The results of a univariate analysis using the Kaplan-Meier method. a. The five-year local recurrence rates demonstrated a significant difference between the two groups divided by the TNR following treatment (the cut-off value was 3.5, p < 0.005). b. The five-year metastasis rates demonstrated a significant difference between the two groups divided by the TNR prior to treatment (the cut-off value was 5.6, p < 0.0001). c. The five-year metastasis rates demonstrated a significant difference between the two groups divided by the residual ratio of the TNR (the cut-off value was 60%, p < 0.01). d. The five-year disease-specific survival rates demonstrated a significant difference between the two groups divided by the TNR prior to treatment (the cut-off value was 5.6, p < 0.0001). e. The five-year disease-specific survival rates demonstrated a significant difference between the two groups divided by the residual ratio of the TNR (the cut-off value was 80%, p < 0.05).
