Significant value. Abbreviation: TNM: tumour-node-metastasis. §Sex differences of prognosis were adjusted by tumour location (colon/rectum), grade (well differentiated/moderately differentiated/poorly differentiated or undifferentiated), TNM stage (0/I/II/III/IV), insurance status (insured/others), marital status (married/widowed/others) and surgery for primary tumours (no/yes) in multivariate analysis.
