In the > 70-year-old subgroup, the 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates of PD group were 93.5, 59.4, and 26.0% and that of HD group were 95.5, 73.2, and 45.5%, respectively, indicating that HD had a better prognosis in this age group, but did not reach statistical significance ( p = 0.060, Fig. 2 d).

The HR of HD decreased from 0.46 (95% CI: 0.23–0.91) to 0.33 (95% CI: 0.14–0.79) (Table 3 ).
