The multivariate Fine-Gray analysis indicated that significant factors affecting the prognosis of patients diagnosed with CC include: age, race, AJCC stage, differentiation grade, tumor size, surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and regional lymph nodes metastasis. Due to the presence of competitive risk events, COX model results could not provide accurate estimates of effects and false-negative results occurred. In addition, COX model misestimated the direction of association between regional lymph node metastasis and cumulative risk of death in patients diagnosed with CC. Competitive risk models tend to be more advantageous when analyzing clinical survival data with multiple endpoints.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n
