Using inflammatory indexes and clinical parameters to predict radiation esophagitis in patients with small-cell lung cancer undergoing chemoradiotherapy

ObjectiveRadiation esophagitis (RE) is a common adverse effect in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients undergoing thoracic radiotherapy. We aim to develop a novel nomogram to predict the acute severe RE (grade≥2) receiving chemoradiation in SCLC patients.Materials and methodsthe risk factors were...
