A network meta-analysis for neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatments for resectable squamous cell carcinoma of esophagus
Abstract The optimal treatment for resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is still a debatable point; however, randomized trials for strategies including neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy (CT), radiotherapy, or chemoradiotherapy (CRT) are not always available. This network meta-anal...
