Mean avoidable total deaths (a, b) and NPC-specific (c, d) deaths per 1000 NPC cases by years since diagnosis, comparing hypothetical with observed scenarios. a Mean avoidable total deaths between hypothetical scenario if all patients were diagnosed at early stages (I–II) vs. the real-world scenario as observed. b Mean avoidable total deaths between hypothetical scenario if all patients were treated in medical university-affiliated or province-level hospitals vs. the real-world scenario as observed. c Mean avoidable NPC-specific deaths between hypothetical scenario if all patients were diagnosed at early stages (I–II) vs. the real-world scenario as observed. d Mean avoidable NPC-specific deaths between hypothetical scenarios if all patients were treated in medical university-affiliated or province-level hospitals vs. the real-world scenario as observed.
