Abstract Background In the absence of previous research, we sought to assess the H-Index’s predictive significance for radiation-induced trismus (RIT) and osteoradionecrosis of the jaw (ORNJ) in patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (LA-NPC) receiving concurrent chemoradiotherapy (...
