RESUMO

Prognostic assessment is of great significance for individualized treatment and care of cancer patients. Although the TNM staging system is widely used as the primary prognostic classifier for solid tumors in clinical practice, the complexity of tumor occurrence and development requires more personalized probability prediction models than an ordered staging system. By integrating clinical, pathological, and molecular factors into digital models through LASSO and Cox regression, a nomogram could provide more accurate personalized survival estimates, helping clinicians and patients develop more appropriate treatment and care plans. Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) is a common pathological subtype of esophageal cancer with poor prognosis. Here, we screened and comprehensively reviewed the studies on EAC nomograms for prognostic prediction, focusing on performance evaluation and potential prognostic factors affecting survival. By analyzing the strengths and limitations of the existing nomograms, this study aims to provide assistance in constructing high-quality prognostic models for EAC patients.
