Nomogram for predicting overall survival (OS) rate at 3 and 5 years in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). The variable score can be calculated by drawing a vertical line linking the value of each parameter with the β(X − m) terms at the top of this nomogram. Next, all scores are summed to obtain the total points score, which is plotted along the total points line, based on which the corresponding OS rates at 3 years and 5 years were obtained. CLR, cholesterol-to-lymphocyte ratio; LNs, lymph nodes; Pr, probability
