Overall survival
From figure panel A · validated against the values printed on the figure · curve source: pixel measurement confirmed by vision model
Reconstructed from the published curve. Median: with gastrectomy 13.7 months; without gastrectomy 9.2 months. Survival at 18 months: with gastrectomy 32%; without gastrectomy 22%. Hazard ratio with gastrectomy vs without gastrectomy 0.58 (95% CI 0.45–0.75).

|---|---|---|---|
| with gastrectomy | 187 | 156 | 13.7 |
| without gastrectomy | 103 | 97 | 9.2 |
- with gastrectomy vs without gastrectomy: reconstructed HR 0.58 (95% CI 0.45–0.75)
