Univariate and multivariate cox hazards analysis for overall survival in 228 patients with NSCLC.

HR, Hazard ratio; 95% CI, 95% confidence interval; SCC, squamous cell carcinoma; EGFR, Epidermal growth factor receptor; CRP, C-reactive protein; HDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglyceride.
*Cox hazard regression model.
**BMI, body mass index, weight divided by height squared, kg/m2.
†Moderately and well-differentiated histologic types were classified as differentiated carcinoma, low.
differentiated histologic type was defined as undifferentiated carcinoma.
††TNM denoted tumor-node-metastasis.
#Tobacco index indicated cigarettes per day multiplied years of smoking.
|| The EGFR mutation status was unknown in 72 patients of the whole cohort.
§The cut-off value of HDL-C was 40 mg/dL in men or 50 mg/dL in women.
