Figure 2

Kaplan–Meier survival curves of (a) recurrence-free survival (RFS) and (b) distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) according to the 18F-FDG uptake of visceral adipose tissue (VAT). Patients with high SUVmean-VAT showed a poorer RFS and DMFS, (A, hazard ratio 2.754, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.090–6.958, p = 0.032; B, HR 3.500, 95% CI 1.224–10.01, p = 0.019, respectively).
