Decision curve analysis for the nomogram. The y-axis represents the net benefit, and the pink line represents the nomogram. The blue line represents the hypothesis that all patients had lymph node (LN) metastases, and the black line represents the hypothesis that no patients had LN metastases. The x-axis represents the threshold probability. The threshold probability is where the expected benefit of treatment is equal to the expected benefit of avoiding treatment. The decision curves in the training cohort showed that if the threshold probability is between 0 and 0.85, using the nomogram to predict LN metastases adds more benefit than treating either all or no patients
