The majority of studies assessed outcome from CRC diagnosis or metastasis resection rather than from metastasis diagnosis and might be subject to immortal time bias.Patients in the population-based DACHS study were stratified: metastases at/within 1 month (immediate), 2 to 6 months (early), 7 to 12 months (intermediate), and >12 months (late) after CRC diagnosis. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS) from metastasis diagnosis. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95 LB - PUB:(DE-HGF)16 C6 - pmid:29064893 DO - DOI:10.1097/SLA.0000000000002564 UR - https://inrepo02.dkfz.de/record/143004 ER -
