Brief summary
In this study, elderly patients with gastric cancer who underwent radical gastrectomy in Union Hospital Affiliated to Fujian Medical University from 2012 to 2018 were included as a derived cohort, and the training set and internal validation set were randomly divided by 4:1. Machine learning strategies of random forest, decision tree and support vector machine are used to construct survival prediction model. Each model was tested in an internal validation set and an external validation set consisting of patients from two other large medical centers.
