摘要
Mortality rate of gastric cancer is about 20.93/100000 which is the highest malignancy in China. The scientist of our country are at present interested in studying the postoperative survival model by multivariate analysis method just as stepwise regression model. The proportional hazard model initiated by Cox (1972) is more advanced than other regression method which is unneccessary to suppose the distribution of survival time and easy to analyse censoring data (the latter is difficult). This paper presented the first time application of Cox model in survival analysis of gastric cancer in China. The survival analysis system (SAS-Ⅰ) software complied by the author includes multivariate anlysis by Cox model, PV analysis and estimation of survival function which could provide useful information to surgeon for treatment of cancer patients.
